    wanna go boosted

    i want to turbo my truck but i dont know the best way to go it. i want to run 10-12 with a stock bottem end. right now i have a 5.3 with p&p heads and cam to match 219-227 .607-.613, tbss intake, heads have 30 thousands shaved off. or should i get rid of the 5.3 and go with a 6.0 with a boost cam. i kinda want to keep the 5.3 but i dont know how much boost it can handle being higher compression. also i would like to know if a stall is nessary with boost, right now i have a 3200 but its in a 60 and im going 80

    Hand p&p heads, 219-227 .607 .613, pacesetter, tbss intake, 92mm t-body, cai, e-fans, 14 bolt, 4.56, true trac, pi 2800, 33's, 4l80e built by me

    Go turbo now and upgrade engine later. .
    Stall is matched to cam more then turbo or boost.

    A boosted,cammed 5.3L will handle a n/a cammed 6,0L .

    We can build you a nice turbo kit with intercooler, let me know if I can help your build out.

    boosted and cammed 5.3 sounds pretty goOD to me.... i think a 3200 stall should be fine.....unless u go BIG turbo....

    i kinda want to get a way from using a stall, if i get a boost cam are stalls recommended with them.

    Depends how big it is. I wouldn't shy away from a stall. They're going to give you a huge SOTP gain.
