10's on $5,000 ?

Got any good heads for a big block at the present? I don’t think you’ll be able to make that decision until you pull the 440 apart to see what it’s going to take to turn it into a 10:1 engine. If you’re still following the budget of this thread, it may be most cost effective to add a BW turbo and blow through setup to it.
well, i said i wanted to do it off of all throttle. Somewhere in this thread, plus another thread, I said that buying the truck would put a huge damper on us hitting a 10.99, but that we are still going to go as fast as we can. If it falls 11.6's, fine. If it goes 12.10, God bless us too! But we weren't going to move the goal post, just do the best we can. Although many foamed at the mouth at the thought of such a build and failed to see the fun, the journey, I can tell you the truck has been a complete blast of fun for us, and we have no regrets. :)
