drivability of the systems is all in the tune at this point. Blow-through setups seem to be much easier to dial in for Daily Drivers. I can't wait to finish mine!

I may be interested in a trade for the S/C swap.

The current set up on your truck is a draw through system. The air is drawn through the MAF. A blow through is just the opposite. I eliminated the MAF by going with the BS3.

you should definitely go turbo, turbos are amazing infact i finally started my turbo project. as far as the maf it will also be blow thru.

i had to replace the fuel pump so i took off the bed.

so far after that i ditched the clutch fan, sure is a lot of room in the engine bay now. ive got quite a bit more to go on this project, i removed my upper intake today.

good luck with the swap if you decide to do it i hope to have my truck backup by monday.

just to clear up any confusion..mines not a lightning.........

but i'll be able to roll with most of them

Those are the exact same cams i have. I made the numbers in my sig. BUT.... I just ordered a set of custom grinds from MMR. I will post the specs once i have them.. but i can bet you they will be a whole lot different than my old ones..

edit.. oops didn't add sig.. i made 780+ with those cams.

35thPony · 12-13-2007, 03:00 PM

I might go to Turbo grinds later, but I still want some noticeable idle cam...

Right now, I have, 270/274 .550"/.550" lift...

how much boost and what size turbo???

35thPony · 12-13-2007, 05:54 PM

both he and I run T76gts... We make about the same power with corrections for altitude and such...

I'm pretty much at sea level and make around 675/750 on pump gas at 18#...

have ya'll ran the trucks since the turbos... and also i made 637rwhp on 16.5lbs with my whipple on pump gass??? i am trying to decide between frank5l's kit and DMP(pts) kit..... the differances are ones used but comes with a 88mm turbo and is cheaper and the other comes with a 76mm but is new

o and almost forgot FRANK's has been proven!

oiN8io · 12-13-2007, 09:47 PM

you made 637 all boost?? i could only get 646 outta my whipple on 21 psi and a few gallons of 110.. that seems really high to me unless n2o was used.. i culd only run 11.46 with my whipple with really not much room to go faster. with the same exact motor but diferent converter and my turbo it has gone 11.19 with a much worse 60 ft and tons of room to grow..
