not sure i definetly want to get all new gaskets, new oil pump, and maybe a cam, heads, and headers then get a nice exhaust thrown on it.

butttt it all depends on how much money i got at the time, i may just rebuild it stock and get an exhaust, i just want the engine as fresh as the rest of the truck, no sense in having all this new shit with an old motor

Get yourself a 383 stroker kit!!!
Its worth the money, engine will be almost new(you gotta keep your original miles though lol) plus you get the added hp and torque. That is assuming you have the money at the time of the build. IMO

how much does that ****** cost? lol

NAPA for rebuild gasket kit

to do a 383, new cam, crank, springs for heads, pushrods, etc,etc...

you could drop some cash going to 383.

ya i think im gonna just do all the gaskets and maybe a new few parts while its out like the oil pump, and bearings and shit just to make sure its in great shape then exhaust and prolly a cai

I wasn't sure how much money you were willing to drop on a "rebuild" but that 383 stroker kit i saw online was $1800-$1900. you end up with about 395 HP and 410 lbs of torque. Could be off by a lil though. That would be your best investment on your hoe.

that would be pretty nice, let me see if i can sell these rims and get a new set and get some extra cash maybe i will do the 383, ill have to talk to my mechanic see how much he's gonna charge me to do all this shit lol
