Hey guys Im about to order some new stuff for the truck, I would need some recommendations on what heads and pistons to get, I want to put more then 20psi on this engine, so what cc's on the head and what dish would it work on this setup? I might use racefuel only.

Any piston manufactor can build you a piston that will work fine. The most common I see are Diamond and Weisco. With that kind of power I would do a 6 bolt block and heads. Trick flow and ETP both make good heads that will work fine.

As said above a 6bolt setup would be a smart move on a serious build like that especially if you want 20psi+ and 1krwhp. Although I dont think you need that kind of boost to make that power with twin 76's. ETP's seem to work really good on highpower builds as well.

The thing is that I already have prep 6.0 block for a .030 over pistons, so I want to use it for now and later on I will be getting the 6 bolt block and heads. The block I have its cement fill, has billet main caps and an engine girlde which I have read that the cement fill helps with the lifting of the heads, so I need to know what compression its better and with which heads pistons would give me that compression.

Thanks
