NG introduction

Good Day, new member after doing a lot of mining for information on FTE. Thanks for the add!
All my passions, camping at Fort Flagler with vintage Norton and my Ford!
All my passions, camping at Fort Flagler with vintage Norton and my Ford!

I own a 2002 F250SD with 7.3L. 182K miles. A few modifications, at 120k or so, Adrenalin HPOP, a 4" bellow up pipes and MBRP exhaust, S&B intake. Installed new Alliant stock injectors at the same time as HPOP, BD upgraded auto transmission.
I use this truck mainly for towing, I have a GD 29M bumper hitch toy hauler, grossing at about 10k.
I live in the PNW.
The truck melted a hole in #1 piston in Nebraska this past October. I am having the engine rebuilt there and doing some more upgrades as I would like 350-400HP and more torque.
So, adding ARP studs to crankshaft mains, forged rods with ARP studs, and ARP head studs.
Engine is in the machine shop, for the usual, hopefully a 0.020 over bore, check alignment of crank bearings, check for flatness, valve job, etc.
I am going with Comp Cams 910-16 valve springs, Smith Brothers pushrods, RCD stage 1 cam and lifters, a Ford overhaul kit from RiffRaff, Isspro gauges, new all aluminum radiator, water pump, new all aluminum Intercooler.
I am researching for the proper combination of Injectors and Turbo.
