sure. grab a 5.3 instead. throw in a cam. cheap set of heads. that car could be major fast for a low budget. later on you decide on a turbo...fine! the 5.3 can handle it no prob. thanks for your service to our country, and welcome to the site.

i hear that alot, the 5.3 is just as good, but its been a pain to find a decent price for just a t56. any idea of a good place to start looking for a trans??
