F/S: 500hp combo, STS kit, FMIC, forged 348

I think she might suspect something since my shop is my two car garage. I guess she won't take any long trips away from the house( and the truck)without me for a while without the fear of coming home to a 4.8L engine sitting on the engine stand in the garage when she gets home.


Can you imagine the surprise though when the aluminum 5.7L LS1 with LS6 heads breaks the tires loose from the stop sign! I think the gig would be up then. I could paint the block black so that it looks like the steel block.

i was going to buy that sts kit.. guess that&#39;s what i get for having to work insane hours.

I do know where there is another used kit for sale. Shoot me a p.m. and I&#39;ll send you his number if you are interested. He is in Lufkin.

I think Billy (TRTturbo) had to buy it just because hes getting a little scared about my twin turbo 408 w/ stage III heads. We got my long block together yesterday and today he buys a turbo set up and motor???


......................................I see a TRT truck shotout coming up&#33;&#33;

This sounds like a little close rivalry in the family.

I thought you&#39;d have that new engine in there and running by now. What&#39;s taking you so long, Dustin??

[Defunct SO]

The rivalry is all in Dustins head. I couldnt give a crap if anybody has a faster truck than I do.
I just really like the turbo and saw this chance to get a good set up.
I&#39;m thinking its an easy 11.70 truck if I can hook. Then we will turn up the boost a little.

[RedHeartbeat]

Yeah, that&#39;s a hell of a deal. Brandon&#39;s going to love the torque that 408 will put out, also.

[stssilverado]

It&#39;s all out&#33; Bring that big bitch down here. Billy&#39;s scared of a little ice and snow and won&#39;t drive down tonight. I assume he&#39;ll also be scared of the power too&#33; :flipoff:

Ready when you are.

[Defunct SO]

I can promise you I am only looking forward to the power.
As far as driving down, I&#39;d be glad to as long as you dont mind it raining in your new motor.
Go ahead and make sure everything is clean and well organized for me.
I need it to be ready to install so I can make you sick with how fast it is.
I&#39;ll even come down to Temple and show you in person.
