I will definately be putting the Vortech back on!!!! I will probably up
the boost a couple of pounds. As for the 318 I would probably try to sell
it to help finance the deal. It has about 60 K miles on it. Ported heads,
Crane 2030 cam, Roller rockers, Ported throttle body. I'll also sell the
Mopar SBEC along with it. I don't quite know what to ask for the engine
yet. I will probably lower the truck a few inches and go with larger rims
and tires.
