What all will fit?
My thought was to get the OD trans rebuilt to handle like 450HP/450TQ, and get a converter/flex plate that matches up.
We also have a beater '04 Dakota QuadCab 2WD V-6 for parts.
I was "told" that I could use the accessory mounts from the V-6 to make everything play nice with the 5.9.
Does anyone have experience getting ~400HP out of a 5.9, but keeping the EFI?
It looks like she's going to be somewhere around 4500 lbs, not counting my fat ***.
With the OD, I was thinking 3.55 or 3.92 gears. IIRC, my '00 QuadCab 5.9 had 3.55's in her, and the R/T's had 3.92's.
Has anyone heard of these folks?

I want to get a game plan before we start throwing cash at her.
