I would love to be able to get a little more torque out of my 4x4 engine.

I'll start a build thread on the 4x4 tomorrow from the fire station. Its a pain to do a long post with lots of pictures from my iPad. My engine isn't too far off of stock. I just harvested a set of used Vortec pistons which are higher compression than my stock tbi pistons, and a full Vortec roller cam setup.
I always chuckle at guys with "shop trucks" that have cut out bed floors and monster frame notches. You got to have a bed to have a real shop truck.
Retrieving some Craigslist 4x4 booty first thing this morning.....
