built motor, great foundation to start modding. if you build it yourself and do the labor (like me) you save a ton of money

it'll be a little more than that but ya only live once

otherwise i would suggest suspension mods, like a rousch lowering kit. Just something that lets you enjoy driving the truck more.
Magnum Power and rods will be real close to the buget and probably the biggest performance for the money. With a good tune the factory pistons will be just fine at 16lbs of boost. Truck could run 11.4ish no problem.

Wait for the wheels until the taxman payeth back 4/15.

JMHO,

Eric

You could buy enough to last a few years


But if it's the Truck you wanna spend it on,
I'd go with a Magnum Power S/C and a Hood as choice one,

Or a JLP Short Block, He runs great sales on them ocasionally

If money wasn't an issue you would already have those mods.

Buy a house or a rental and watch that 3K grow. These interest rates are not going to be around for long.

My 2 cents
