- In theory, theory and practice are the same. In practice, they are different.
Move to a place with lots of snow and ice.

- Its probably better to be self deprecating than self defecating.
What Bobby said. Buy a junkyard 6.0, have some headwork done to it, slap some turbos on it and viola... 1000hp. Have the 6l80 built, manual valve body, ford 9" rear end, good to go.

I wouldn't reccomend a TTB truck for drifting. 98 up SLA is a better choice.
I was gonna get a 8.8” of an sn95 and make it a 2wd
want to make it a manual
