Default Magnusson TVS potential on 5.3L

Was wondering what kind of numbers i could expect after dropping some cash into this engine. Going to be my dd for a couple years then im going to go a little nuts on it. Have the TVS already and would be putting in a 4L80. So if I spun the 1900 with the smallest pulley magnusson sold what kind of upgrades engine wise would I need on my 5.3L? Camshaft, pushrods, pistons, etc. What kind of horsepower could I expect. Will not be using any spray just supercharger with max boost and bulletproof engine. Will be doing all labour myself.

depends on you. You can keep it simple and push it or you can spend money on forged cylinders, hardware, etc. With a 2.9" pullly and no slip I managed an 11.81 with blower only on a bone stock (cam only) 5.3

My mods are in my sig-click it.

He must have been dreaming about Ford's new method of not using cylinder liners. PTWA, Plasma Transfer Wire Arc. ............. Right,

Hey, I'm hoping GM licenses this tech in the future for engine blocks that match gen III and IV dimensions so we can use them and abuse them. Seems like pretty trick technology, and it does away with expensive cylinder liner replacement.
