Thanks! The plan is to go lower, improve the handling, probably a 2wd conversion, and to give it sort of an OEM+ look then to fuel inject and turbo it sticking with the 2.6. I'm probably not going to use Starion injection as I'm told it's not great from a performance perspective, I'm thinking Megasquirt and a custom intake might be the way to go.

And because I think it's going to come up, despite going the on-road route I started with a 4WD for a couple of reasons. A) everything is a bit beefier, B) it comes with a G54B by default, and C) I found a truck without much rust that happened to be 4WD
