Ok so as some of you know Im building a 6.0. I want to hear some suggestions as to what pistons and rods to run, a good "cheap" 243 head, and really anything you have. I wanna run N/A for a while till I can get the money to put around 15lbs of boost into it. Im on a budget to some extent....I am willing to pay good money for good parts...but I do kinda want to keep the price down as much as I can.
Thanks guys.

building a motor NA then thinking of going boost is two different beasts. You need to have a realistic goal in mind and if you on a budget you need to stick to it. building a LS motor to compete with others a budget is out of the picture.

it ain't that I'm too big to listen to the rumors, It's just that I'm too damn big to pay attention to 'em..That's the difference

Theres only so much you can do to a motor while having a turbo, the cam cannot be too extreme as well. Turbo 6.0s do put down good #'s though

get a good cam for NA then when you have the money for boost, pull the cam, sell it, buy one thats good for boostjust a thought, get forged pistons and connecting rods too.

The difference between winning and losing, is having a 2nd stage.

wont work like that. you need to set a solid plan for the motor first. a boosted motor NA is a dog, a NA motor then goes to boost is limited to boost unless you run race fuelOriginally Posted by LamboDoNoMo
