Fiiiiine. Those things better be the most shiny, cool, chick magnetiest item ever invented in the history of America. Any thoughts piston wise or should I just get a stock piston and keep it cheap there?

pistons are decided from your choice of cam, even if you chose to stick with stock cam i would at least do wide bowl, deliped and coated pistons, help with heat and to keep the fuel in the bowl when going to a big nozzle, also would wana see you do a set of billet wrist pins for the cheap insurance

What he said ^ you probably need a bigger budget, that's why I ultimately decided not to do a cam it just wasn't in the budget for me.

Compounds = rods
Single = stock rods.

I can't remember the last time I've seen a 6.0 with a single and no spray need rods.

SINGLE + NITROUS-- RODS

I guess I don't really have a budget, it's just how much money I am willing to throw at a motor over time. I'll just do stock cam probably.

No me gusta nitrous. I come from the land of all motor.

All motor would mean non turbo sooo... Lol

Regardless of spray if you're doing compounds I'd do rods.

.......and a turbo or two. I'll do rods. Just going to take more time to get the bottom end done than I anticipated.

Question on the hpop. It has the cover yang looks like mine on the early 2004, but the motor is an 05. It has the ipr on the valve cover and the wavey oil rails, I thought that in 2005 they went to the cover that seals on an oring around the hpop?

there is the 03 beer can pump and cast iron cover with log rails. Then wavy rails with the beer can pump and cast iron cover. then the later style pump and aluminum cover and wavy rails
