thanks for the info, i would rather build it myself, but the motor alone

a junkyard will cost me almost as much as the shortblock, what do you
recommend for heads (anybody)?

This what I would do if I hadn't built mine from the ground up. My buddy
did this same combo and made 345RHP and 419TQ. This was through a 3500 stall
so this motor is making over 400hp with the stock EFI.
MP shortblock 10 to 1 comp aprox. $1250
cam(hughes) 540lift/220 duration@50 $240
Hughes stage 2 heads $1000
M1 intake $260
Doug Thorley headers,single 3 inch with no cat $450
F&B t body $100-250
Pulleys $80
electric fan $170
Mp comp. $150
crane RRs $350
This combo has already run 12s straight motor. Some of these things you
could skip,fan,etc and still make great power. This truck is a daily driver.
You could sell the big cam from the short block as well.
