17.8?thats stock rite?
Yeah that was absolutely bone stock, 5speed 3.23's.
tell your idiot cousin to finish college, get a job, then do the right mods. Damn kids dont have the right priorities anymore.
hey why dont u just chill ^^ out damm....as long as hes paying for it who gives a shit right?didnt know there were "wrong" mods lmao
He'll find out it's a pointless endeavor all on his own. All else fails and he still wants the 4.3, marine intake and turbo.
Maybe fab up a rear mount turbo? Couldn't be too much different than one for a V8. Maybe just use a smaller turbo.
turbo be nice...i know them 4.3 syclones were fast,,light,but fast.
shit he mite end up getting a new vehicle who knows maybe ill end up with his truck for a project ;)...ill pull that 4.3 in a hearbeat lol
i'd hate to be the bearer of bad news, but you really need to let him know he'll be better off swapping for a V8 - much more power for the same or less monies.
i know you mentioned that was right out, but friends shouldn't let friends waste that much time & effort. that's my opinion anyway.
(ps - that's coming from somebody who was adamant about not swapping engines this time last year)
wait... stock 5.3 RCSBs are that slow? that makes me feel much better about my 15.8 now - thanks! :D
mine came with 3.73s
only ones i could find were JBA shorties
i talked to STS a year or so ago & they said you could do some custom work to their 4.8 kit to get it to work with that engine
