He's right, anywhere from 3000-4000, depending on what you can stand and what you want out of it. Weight of the truck, power being made, cam, etc. all come into play as well.

I'm running the Yank TT3200 and I like it alot. Can't really tell you how hard it pulls on the 4.8 because of belt slipping issues. But it pulled like a monster on the ECSB 5.3.

Thanks for the input guys..I should have mentioned, it's a 01'GMC Sierra. I'm flying to NC tomorrow to buy it. I am not sure all that's done to it, but it has a procharger on it and it's a 4.8 with headers of unknown origin. I'll have to decode what else is done to it since it's at a dealer that bought it wholesale. I was just really curious what kinda et's and hp we were at..and how you guys made them run hard. Already helped out a bunch.
