    Question Need some advice/suggestions

    Alright guys, I need some advice on a build. I want to get my truck into low 11s or so and have about 15-17k to play around with.

    This is what I am thinking so far....
    *Buy a low mileage 6.0 lq4 from the junkyard
    *put a 02+ LS6/z06 cam in it with comp 918s and 7.425 pushrods in it
    *FLT level 4 or 5 4l80e
    *Yank SC 3,000 converter for the 4l80e
    *detroit true-trac with 3.73 AAM gears
    *custom built driveshaft
    *front mount T76 trick-performance turbo kit by Nelson
    *FMIC and meth injection
    *255 Walbro in-tank fuel pump
    *48 lb injectors
    *LS1 fans and Nelson dyno tuned
    *cal-tracs
    *Already have pacesetter LTs and Cold air intake that I will be using

    Alright, now for the questions:
    1) Does this setup sound like it can get me low 11s on a RCSB '04 Silverado?
    2) Can I do this for around 17k or so? Nelson's shop would be doing most of the work since it is my dd and I need it done in as little time as possible.
    2) Any Suggestions?
    3) Would 3.73s with the 3,000 stall be too much for traction? Even with drag radials and cal-tracs do you think I could hook up?
    4) Would a stock low-mileage lq4 hold up to all this?

    Thanks and sorry for so many questions, just want to get it right before I spend the money (it's a lot of money, for me at least, lol)

    sounds like a good plan.
    I would go with 60 lb injectors though, and you won't be usig the pacesetter's with the turbo.

    eh, i guess just 11's would be good enough.
