Re: how to make truck run 13s?????
I don't know how you would outrun an L on just motor. The L's are supercharged, so good luck.
If you want to come close, umm...I dunno where to start...
1)cam+tuning (~$700)
2)Intake ($200)
3)exhaust ($1000)
The essence of horsepower is getting air and fuel in and out of an engine as fast as possible.(right guys?)
Intake and exhaust helps, and a bigger cam lets more fuel+air in.
I also have a 4.8 and would like to wake it up a bit, that's probably what I will do.

Radix Magnacharger,ASM headers,Yank 3000,4.10 gears and a Eaton posi.About $7500.
That reminds me, I got an Eaton posi and 4.10 gears for $800 installed. While that doesn't add power, it got the power I have to the ground. Before I was doing the infamous "one wheel peel" and wouldn't go anywhere. Now, the Eaton hooks up, the 4.10s haul better, and I'm outta there. Not to mention the fun you can have with the Eaton when going around corners.

He can't do it for $2000 unless he sprays the devil out of it.With ASM headers,Yank 3000,4.10s a Eaton posi and a 150 shot he might make it for $2000.
