Want to point out I am very indecisive. Truck is being dropped off Sunday afternoon and I just made the decision to do Rods, Main Studs and delipped pistons. Just got too nervous that I'd do all this work and have it explode the second I flip it onto a hot tune. FML

Not sure yet. I haven't made any changes since it put down the 540 on motor and 570 on w/m. Wouldn't be bad to have a baseline on Dez's but its $75 that I don't really need to spend.

Ahh I wish I had a truck at the moment I need to get to Richards also to grab the smoke tube... But on the bright side you found out the rear was junk before putting more power to it and blowing it after the build and its down longer.
