[QUOTE="Zeb, post: 1534374, member: 30304"] You’ve got a solid list there for a very fun, versatile truck. A few recommendations from having done a number similar builds. OEM hpop. There are a number of instances where the Thumper 1 flows less than a stock one, and reliability is not as good. 205/30’s (not 75’s) and have the FICM tuned by WDI to pull pw to maintain max ICP as needed. PM me for recommendations on builders KC Stage 2 is an excellent choice if you intend to stay vgt. I am a non vgt fan tho. Colt Stage 2 cam, and Motorcraft lifters Stock stall DPC Heavy Duty Triple disc converter, and leave the rest of the trans alone if it’s in good shape. I build my own fuel systems. They are not cheap, but dead reliable, quiet, and nearer than any other system that I know of. If you stay vgt, I take the stock up pipes and TIG in a set of heavy duty bellows. Done dozens of them and have never had one fail. If you’re doing a fuel system you won’t have to do banjo bolts or blue spring OEM oil cooler Mahle gasket kit CS54450 for the bottom end, and HS54450 for everything else if it’s an 18mm motor, HS54579 if it’s a 20mm motor Definitely do oringed heads. PM me for my recommendations Stock pushrods and valve springs have always been adequate for me Take the money you save by not rebuilding the trans and buy an ODawg 3 intake manifold. Stick with OE for thermostat, glow plugs, stand pipes and dummy plugs. The setup you’re looking to build is fun, versatile, and very reliable if done right. [/QUOTE]
