[QUOTE="Humpy, post: 521085, member: 3287"] I'm looking for someone with some real world experience...

Th400 trans and 205 gm case I'm stuck between 5.3/6.0/8.1 I wanna leave motor in stock form... The 5.3 is not gonna be enough.. I really wanna try an 8.1,, I think the off throttle big inch power would be neat... This is just a trail truck.., Harlan style wheelin.. Not a hill killer or bouncer... My question is... Has anyone run the 8.1 motor? Do you like it? What are some pros and cons?? I have room as I cut the front tube work back off to clear rocks do I can bend around the big block motor Thx for any help [/QUOTE]
