yes very tough choices this month, all very very nice trucks. However because of the supercharger install, and on board 120v outlets I am leaning toward Butch1581. Again I will have to say you all have very cool rides, may they all last you a long time. Ramstrat that is one bad a$$ looking truck. However the 4.7 install threw me for a loop, why not a 5.7? With such big tires where do you get your power from? Then there is that sweet looking black hemi? Decisions, decisions, I also need some more campaigning.

I looked into dropping in a 5.7l but you cant just drop a 5.7l in. I would have ended up having to swap out wiring harnesses, getting a new brain, I would have had to redo my exhaust, get different motor/tranny mounts, and I just didnt have that kind of $$$ or time.

I ended up just getting a OEM replacement longblock (and despite what others think, I think the 4.7 is a good motor) and the truck is still powerful enough to break the rear loose on occasion.

You guys have amazing rides. Looks like I may get to do a little campaigning due to a work accident. I have surgery in the morning and will be out of it for a couple of days but well see
