LOL, hilarious ok yankee, we're done

Out of all that talk and trying to explain in previous threads and posts.........you still dont get it I really think you are that fvcking stupid. I really do

If someone makes a rediculous suggestion such as a camshaft and stall converter for towing a boat through the mountains...then to suggest nitrous as a power adder as well....im gonna call you out. Bottom line. Either dont post "tech help" unless you are educated, or be prepared to get blasted. If you dont like it, tough titties. Go post that suggestion on other forums. You think what I said was bad, you would get eatin alive elsewhere

We laugh about it now.....but I wouldnt be surpised if this would happen

Good looking Tahoe

Its not "picking a fight". A few select members on here seem to think they need to offer tech advice to others and have no idea what they are talking about OTHER than what the might have read on here in previous threads and/or posts. And to add to it, they fly off the wall with stuff they only read and it doesnt even relate to help what the OP would need! I.E suggesting a camshaft and stall converter for towing in the mountains?! Are you f'n serious? To the ones that ask for the advice, they might not know any different which is why they are asking the question. Then actually do what these guys suggest and either completly wreck their truck or go backwards in performance wasting their money. Or, instead of "picking a fight" I can let the OP take the advice of installing a donkey dick cam and 4000 stall converter to pull a boat through the mountains.

The plastic ones are the torlan check balls. Just keep the steel ones. As for the cooler, you can get a bypass to help with coolant temp in the colder months. I would suggest this. Last, check out the How-To section. I made a How-To section on installing a shift kit. You are installing a different kit but you might pick up some different tips in there.

Which Firestone does your brother work at? I worked at the Oak Park one for a couple years when I was in college. Since then they have torn it down and built a new building just down the road.

I buy some parts for my builds from them when I dont want to mess with WIT Trans. I am not sure on their builds, you dont hear to much about them. Just remember flashy websites dont always mean a good product. Not saying they dont have a good product, but dont get ahead of yourself. As far parts for the swap, yes essentially they have everything you need. BUT, if you do your research right you can find and/or make these parts for less than half than what they are asking. But they are there if you dont want to mess with it and I can understand if you dont. I mentioned Jakes because if I was going to buy a new already assembled unit he is the one I would go to. I plan to build my own unit for my Camaro and run his killer trans brake. Like I mentioned before, you could easily get away with running a used unit and just reprograming the valve body. You wont be making enough power to need to upgrade hard parts internally. It would be super easy to find a used unit in the metro area and it looks like you have resources to help install a shift kit. Def not busting your chops for the choice you made as they have a great product. But def busted your chops for having Chucks nutz plastered to your chin You have got better though I will give you that........

2800-3000

These are LS engines and it isnt 1952. His engine isnt wore out. Im also not butt hurt. Im calling out you and your rediculous partner from giving out rediculous information like always. But you dont seem to get it. And yes you can find a used kit for $4k. I was even apart of one. Last if he was going to put a new engine in just to tow, he would be money ahead to get rid of the current truck and get one that is more capable of hauling.

Just give it up Jason. Him and Aldofoc*** are just gonna keep posting stupid shit just to show their existance. We all know what mod is best for the OP and lets leave it at that.

I wouldnt even go down that road.......... Roots blower is what you want

A Procharger is NOT the blower you want for towing applications and does not make low end torque like a positive displacment blower or roots blower does.

For what he has already done to his truck and his posted budget I believe it is his best option. With a 4k budget, going with a new unit is clearly out of reach but there are and have been some nice used units coming around from some reputable members here recently. Like posted multiple times in this thread and countless times on this forum they are great for low end torqe which is what you want for towing especially going through mountains.

You can fab exhaust but cant post pictures on a web forum

I disagree. He can run the stock injectors just fine with low boost

This is why I get so negative on this forum sometimes The OP clearly said he wants to pull a boat and through the mountains and you want to suggest a camshaft change along with a bigger torque converter stall speed?! Nitrous?! what are you worried about high intake temps for? The magnacharger would be perfect for pulling a boat and its really what they were designed for...was for extra low end torque to pull payloads with.

Thank you If you want to spend 1500 more for 20hp then go for it. I know with a budget and for what else you will need to comlete this budeget I would want to put the extra in the fuel system. You can have all the nice pretty blowers and heads you want but fuel makes it go. Something to.think about Oh, and I agree on being broke. You can take a look at the bucket of bolts I put together in my sig. It didnt run very well at all......

When you present a discussion of this subject you will never get a "perfect" answer. I suggested doing some minor machine work to your factory heads for the fact that what you pay for a set of CNC PnP heads you really wont gain a whole lot for what you spend. And maybe milling the factory 317s isnt the anwser on a boosted application especially with LQ9 pistons. I lack expertise in this area jus like cam specs so maybe one of the bros can chime in on that. All im saying is instead of spending 1500-2000 in CNC heads you can drop maybe 500 on the factory heads and get more bang for the buck.

I wouldnt even mess with L92's. I would slightly mill the 317's, valve job, new springs, valve stem seals, and roll with that.

Good response Carry on

Clean truck.....not sure whats up with the Z06 emblems tho

This is where more stall speed would come into play.

Looks killer. I loved my Speedstur and BSER combo. Thats gonna turn out good
