Yeah, just moved here ( Navy ) be here for a few years. Im a Texas Native. The scene is pretty small here compared to back home. I couldnt back my car out of the garage without getting a rev back home.

Funny all these reply's and stupidfast the peoson asking the question hasn't said anything back. Hopefully he reads this as I fell there are some very good idea's here.
Like I said before it all comes down to budget and what you are trying to do with the car.
I bet a bunch of people would rather just save their money on the shortblock and get the best H/C combo. Sometimes if you have a budget and get the best of one thing instead of the avarage of 2 things you are better off.
Look at those in Caraudio. There are people that have used a great amp and a great set of highs and made other with the same budget look folish because they bought 2 decent amp's and 2 decent set of highs. End result sometimes 1 is better then 2.
Good luck dude.

I have been reading this thread and thinking alot. I have been talking to Nick@AP about my needs. He has been nothing but freindly and helpful.
I am trying to think of how to make my truck fast, I am almost starting to think that trucks aren't made to be fast. I am trying to find out how much of a difference in power I will pick up with a stroker over my current setup.
Thanks for all of the help.

My opinion - An Eagle stroker will be a very good option. The added stroker torque will be a blessing to a truck. The large powerband is great, and you wouldn't have to revv it to the moon to get peak power out of it. If anything, use an eagle crank, but with better rods and custom pistons.
