What are your goals for right now? How much money do you have to work with?

If you are ultimately shooting for 10's I would get rid of the 10-bolt, get a better clutch, start putting together suspension from any of the good one's like UMI/BMR, and then start thinking about bolt-on's.

i have an 04 f-250 v10 4x4, it sucks gas like a ************ but it can tow a house. it also has over 200k miles on it right now so I'm lookin to get something with less miles to tow down to the ltx shootout.

I would give one of my kidney's for gunter's truck though that thing is a f*ckin badass truck

who the hell cuts a sunroof into an fbody? even though that is a hard top,. the t-bar is under the roof. might as well make it a targa now, the structural integrity factor of the t-bar is already gone.
