    Tango-without the "dance",that is not under consideration.To be more blunt,my answer is no.

    Now let's talk about "if" the RV(yeah not a truck) was yours.I am going to remind you for your own sake posting on any forum,that you can not assume a O/P's experience,backround,history,or for that matter anything else.Just because a member on a forum "might" be new,doesn't mean they don't have deep pocketfuls of a working backround.It is a safe bet to post on the basis of a person who have done at least as much as you and might be even more.So I suggest you check your ego at the door before you post.

    I have read your posts in other threads and well,I think on this project,I am surrounding myself with people who are on the same page as I in terms of a goal for it and they do know how to build for it because they are professionals.

    So I am saying with all the engines I have owned in the past,it is surely a safe bet I have considered the engine that is in there and decided against it's usefulnesses.My advise to you is when you consider a build,you need for that goal based on a comparison of "if" you spend one more dollar on a mod the amount of return you get in output.Loosely it that kind of outllook that has served me and my partner well in a drag race operation for over twenty yrs Sir.Kind of spend right,get it right.

    So I think I have covered my thoughts pretty well on this topic.


    Thank You For Your Time.
    Good Bye
