Gonna GUT it.

SO... long time since I have posted on here.

I got a new truck a 2003 6.0 powerstroke.

love it. lots of power.

I miss my 302 some days but then I get on the loud pedal on this thing and smile.

ANY way. it has been... 6 months and no bites on my 92 F-150. no one wants a single cab long box 2wd 302 auto.

so the plan is to

1.) race my diesel. very pricey gotta do headstuds and EGR delete.

2.) GUT my F-150 all useless weight taken out no climate controls etc. do a 351 windsor swap use a carb.

2a). Use a c6.

2b). Use a Manual.

any tips?

what manual works well?

what would be cheaper c6 or standard?
