Those are some good numbers, you have a dyno graph?

 

I do have a dyno graph but I don't know where I put it. But the mods are a Comp cam 601/564 112lsa with patriot valve springs comp cams push rods an underdrive pulley JBA shorty headers and spark plug wires and a true flow CAI and a good tune from my brother's shop NEXTGEN autosport.

 

sounds like your off to a good start. if you get the chance i highly recommend swappin out the 4.8 for a 6.0. its so much fun to dirve with all that extra hp/tq.

 

yeah if you look at the truck of the month post Regency04 is in the process of building his truck to be the first (if i'm not mistaken...correct me if i am) RST w/ the 6.0....the 6.0 is a MUCH better platform for power than the 4.8...as a matter of fact his 4.8 was built & all he got out of it was 480 HP w/ 460 tq at the wheels i believe he's selling all the internals from the 4.8 & the blower so if you need anything send him a message! and once again NICE TRUCK!!

 

Thanks for the props! Its much appreciated! I do plan to build a 6.0 but I am gonna go with 427 stroker kit from Lunati. I am also gonna do a six speed swap and change the rear end to 4.88's and a detroit true trac. But this all can only happen with lots and lots of money....

 

i have had the 6.0 lq4 and t56 in my truck since 3/07. i love it. i just put a 4.56 gear in before winter and it made a huge differnce over the stock 3.73. and within the next couple of weeks im gonna be pullin the motor and pullin the dish piston and puttin in flat tops and then gonna bolt on some 243 heads. cant wait to see the numbers on it, but ill let you know.

by the way i like the way your headed with your build.

Thanks for the props! I am glad to hear that you love the t-56 swap. I am really excited to do that to my truck. Keep me posted on the engine work, I would love to hear how it all turns out!

 

Just to let you all know, I posted some pix ( i finally figured out how to do it...) on my profile page if you all wanna check em out!
