Greg's correct in his decision to go for a
390 or 408 stroker instead of a $2500.00 + stroker v6 !!
Muscletrucks offers the 390 / 408 stroker kits for $1700.00 complete.
All that's needed is balancing and block machine work.
My 3.9 will get a Forged piston and Eagle rod short block in the next 12-18
months............
I'm trying to see if I can build it up to handle the Supercharger @ 10lbs
boost
and a 100 hp shot of nitrous........
I'd like to get my Dak to pull a 400+ hp
Dyno run and run a QTR mile pass in the 13's
