    His engine is a freak! That one was built right. Most stock engines were thrown together by 90 year old gnomes with 10 thumbs.

    Bump it up to 10 psi and it will be a whole new truck. With a good tune your 5.3 should live on 10psi for a long time. Been there, done that, got the t-shirt.

    Z06 cam would be a nice addition, but not necessary.

    My experience with stock converters is that when you brake stall them with boost, they will stall about 500-600 RPM higher than stock. What does your stock one go to right now?

    I have yet to actually brake stall it to its full potential. I do want to try it though to see where im at. or at least what it can stall to
