TPI's make good truck motors because they produce a decent amount of torque. The L98 in my vette put down close to 300 ft lbs at the wheels when it was stock. If you're going to upgrade beyond the TPI, I would just skip the LTX stuff and straight to the LS series. A 6.0L from a late model truck would make an awesome truck motor. Plus, the aftermarket is packed with parts for the gen III/IV motors.

If you're looking to add some HP's to the TPI start with the intake. The stock one is very restrictive. There are some cheap alternatives though. For starters, check out www.lt1intake.com Or, check out the stealth ram and mini-ram intakes.
