Ya. I think if I had a forged motor I would go the whole way with studs springs pushrods big hybrids. But with this pmr motor and "not-so-bts" trans I just don't see it being smart or practical. And I honestly think if this motor popped I'd either drop a 12v in it(can get 12v's for 1200 & 24v's for 1600 ready to go) or I'd but a running 7.3 drop it in return the truck to stock sell all the performance parts and go buy a 6.4. I love the 7.3's especially how easy they are to work with. But hard to beat a truck with a much nicer interior that I can get 500hp from bolt ons and tunes.
On the bright side the injectors and new tunes are in and she's purring like a kitten. not nearly as fast as it felt with the beans tunes but definitely more drivable. I was nervous initially cause on the test drive it was pouring white smoke wayyyyy more than the first time but I let it sit in high idle for 20 min while I cleaned up and it seems to be doing fine now. Starts are starting to get faster.
