    Smile I have this idea.......

    I have a dream.....

    This is prolly the dumbest idea I have come up with so far but here I go anyways. I want to start with a stock 4wd rcsb then I want to do the following frankenstine.

    LSX block built way up to handle extreme boost and built with large displacement

    T-56 Tranny

    Then Twin frontmount 82mm garrette GT40 turbos

    25lbs of boost

    Built rear end

    Slicks of course and so on and so forth

    I would be shooting for about 1100hp and I want it to be the fastest Street truck on the road.

    I think this would only cost what 30,000

    Haha if only what a dream.........

    Any thoughts?

    So....

    That said how do you guys think this could be done?
    improved upon?
    what would you do if there was no real limits?

    This has already been done. The Parrish truck did it. Search streetfire vids or performancetrucks.net vids
    Also 30 grand is not enough.
    99RCSB Broke because I wasted thousands and thousands of dollars on my truck.

    I don't think a T56 would bolt up to a 4x4... I could be wrong, it's happened before.... Back in 1985.

    they make super stout 6 speeds, but i would say go with a jerrico st-1200 for the fastest truck. i love standard trannies, i would love to see a build like this, ive been thinking of the same setup, but 2wd 4 link with a 427 with 25 psi or so. go for it, ya, and i figured you meant 30k in upgrades once you have the truck right? depends on how much you can do your self.

    The best advice I have ever heard:... Only take B( . Y . )ST advice from someone that is CURRENTLY running a turbo setup close to, or bigger than what you want......

    I agree...you can easily pick up an 00-01 RCSB with a blown motor/tranny for short short change...my cousin just picked up an 02 ECSB with 180k on the clock for just under 3,000 - body's not perfect but thats coming off for some modification on this one anyway.

    Street tuning with HPTuners or a similar program, and a few mechanically inclined buddies to help out...Id say its well within a 30k budget.

    This is funny cuz he got this idea from me.

    My original dream for the truck is a 502 LSx with twin 80mm+ remote mount turbos and pushing near 1500-2000hp. He copied me!

    That being said...Chase you know it can be done and you know Im going to do it first. But yes it will cost more than 30k with your abilities....you suck at everything you do. Jk son.
    But im seeing it now my truck against yours...with the dream set-ups....youre going to get blown away!!!!!!!!!!
