B codes. To modify or not?

In the process of installing v codes in the front and about to switch to the rear. Would you go straight b codes with f250 blocks? Modded b codes? Trying to not do this again next weekend!

Modded, if you have the time and are able to.

Where B codes are concerned, the stock smaller blocks are always a better choice over the F250 tapered blocks.

Thanks for the reply. I ended up leaving the rear alone. The front end came up nicely. It's 1/4 in lower than the rear. I think I'm going to leave it as is for the time being
