But regardless, it's a badass truck. Even if the new owner did have to drop an extra $500 for a 60k mile 6.0 out of a salvage yard. . . you might even call it justifyable. :D Any way, just thought it might start a good conversation. If I had an extra $11,000 sitting around, I'd be waving it infront of his face.
nah, if you know how to make power with one of these motors you'll find out how to blow them up too. I killed my first one at 20k miles, threw a rod out the side of the block in my 01 Z28 h/c car. trucks making 300rwhp with h/c is a totally different ball game than what i'm talking about bro.
Proper cam, timing and tuning make all the difference in the world when tuning for high boost numbers. Stock compression on the 4.8 is what about 9.5:1 static compression? Does a turbo cam bleed off dynamic compression?
the guys ad for the truck said 6 psi, I've been running 6 psi on my suburban for over 2 years now, and 8 psi on my silverado for 6 months, and neither motor has had the slightest hiccup. my suburban has almost 400whp and i havent dynoed the silvy but it feels much stronger. and doesnt foggy have weel over 500 at the wheels
Never figured this would get so out of hand. Thanks for the referral KRW. I only have roughly 1k miles on boost, but it shows no sign of "exploding." If i remember, Parish was doing a test on a 5.3 running around 20#'s of boost with many passes, but he's just lucky, right?:lol: I appreciate it KRW, i was oblivious about this site. But seriously, enough of the bs, just buy my truck.;)
Let's keep things positive from here forward.

If I were single I'd buy this truck.

NO longer for sale, decided to keep it. 80E and 6.0 in the near future hopefully.:)
