How competitive are you wanting to be? It will take quite a bit of $$ to be competitive in the 2.6 class. Especially around Indiana, Ohio, and Kentucky.

A custom 2.6 charger and 13mm pump are a good start. A good 12mm pump will probably get you by though. Just depends on your budget.

About 550 to 600 and a set of 5x.018 dual feeds!

i would run a II silver 66 if it were me, i've seen a guy go from a silver66 to a custom s465 and his truck isn't as competitive as what it use to be.

I have seen a guy go from a silver bullet to a 465 andt he truck ran better though.

I agree on this. My HTT 66ss was to big to fit 2.6. Took care of that this year with a S400.
