Don't go gettin upset at me....but if you want 300hp and 300 ft-lb of torque the quickest and cheapest thing to do is search your local swap sheet for a rebuilt 350...around here they go from $700-$1500 and slap in a cam...that's all you would need to do for that kind of power. Plus, I HAVE smoked rice burners with a 350, 700R4, and 3.73 rearend, 15mpg, AND my truck will EASILY cruise at 80mph, @2400rpm and PASS traffic. I topped her out one day at 109....damned rear-end is too low......just my .02 cents bro.... seems like a lot of work and too much money to put into a six..... I had a stock 250 I-6 in my truck and I could easily smoke the tires. I'd say leave her alone or get a V-8..... "you can't have a tow truck and a drag car"
