I am looking into the Hotchkis TVS system with the bigger sway bars, I really want to make this truck handle as close to a car as I can. I have had far too many straight line trucks, its time to do something outside the box.

Long gears and a the front straight at Willow sounds good to me
Kit was discontinued. But I have mine.

cheyenne383, u might like where is head's at. It's usu. up his behind.
I'm w/. OnyxSilveradoSS, you should throw a turbo on it.

TurboBerserker, torque tube & rear transaxle to help with weight balance sounds familiar.

charcold-bowtie, don't you know it doesn't void warranty? j/k
Prototype? It looks like a std. TVS in red.

This pic is a shameless plug. See poster to Right.

Very nice. Extreme Performance Heat Coatings did a nicer job from this end.

what are you expecting this thing to put down with the 4.8 and 10lbs out of the tvs. i like the idea of making it handle.. looking into making up sway bars for my truck.

Why fool with the 1900? 4.8L with a 2300 on top would be the **** snizzle. No guts, no glory, no scattered miscellaneous parts.....If Magna paid me to do what Brian does, I'd do it with a little more "gusto" than using a measly 1900. sheeeeeze
