Recently i have thought I was going to build my spare 360 motor to a 408, but lately i think i rather boost my 5.9 about 12-14LB.

So far here is my parts installed:

2001 Dakota R/T 2wd
360 magnum 8.25-8.75 compression
46RE tranny
4.10 gears in the rear
3" long tube spintech headers
3" spintech duel exhaust X pipe
58mm TB
1.7 rockers
m1 intake manifold (2bbl) I also have a 4bbl in the garage
8mm wires
Stock port/polished magnum heads
180 stat


I plan to buy the following:

Duration @ .050 218 / 226 LSA 114 camshaft from PIE
2500 stall converter
SCT Tuner
GT30R
36LB ford injectors
Front mount
.600 springs
new seals
Forged pistons
2 bar map sensor
Fuel pump/ fuel pressure regulator (suggestions welcomed) (will i need a return line?)

What else am i missing? Not much? Does this look like it will be right? Will my 3inch long tube headers effect me dump exhaust quick enough?

Will the stock heads flow, im not sure the numbers on the port/polished

Ive heard shorty headers were better for turbo builds, im not sure.

I really want this for the street/strip, my plan is to build a high low end torque motor so i can launch hard, then have the snail spool me all the way to the finish line.

Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.
