That would be your best bet. That way, you would KNOW what you have, and that it would handle what you were dishin' out. You could prolly pick up an engine/trans for a couple hundred, so you could still drive your truck while building them up.

$250 for an engine and tranny is a good price if either is in decent shape.

Can you tune a '96? Or is that '95/older you can't tune? I don't remember.

If you can tune it an SCT is probably the best bang for your buck.

don't do a cam without talking to hemifever first with its exact specs and budgeting for a SCT for your 96. otherwise the damn thing won't run. damn computers.

personally i wouldn't put a non-stock cam in it. too much mystery and hassle.

+1.....especially for a DD. Gotta figure based on what one wants to do with the truck.
