kcsilveradoss Posted June 26, 2011 Author Report Share Posted June 26, 2011 update: got the ARH headers on with no cats, and blower is now off. For anyone who hasn't seen these headers, they are unreal as far as fit/finish. I can get some installed pics if anyone wants them. Also took the maggie off and put the stock intake back on. Zippy is gonna fashion me a tune so she can make a 40 minute drive to her new home for the next 2-3 weeks to get some fab work done. When it gets back I most likely will jerk the motor out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kcsilveradoss Posted July 2, 2011 Author Report Share Posted July 2, 2011 got the blower off and it went to its new home. got her put back to stock motor so I can take her out to House of boost to be fitted with one of their custom 8 rib setups. Then she comes back home so hopefully I can get some more done on her quickly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ALTRDTA Posted July 7, 2011 Report Share Posted July 7, 2011 (edited) Looks like a really fun setup. You should sell that 408 though and buy my engine, it'd handle anything that F1r could throw at it with a good tuner ;). Good luck with the build, hopefully ill be able to do a pretty decent build on mine eventually.

kcsilveradoss Posted August 15, 2011 Author Report Share Posted August 15, 2011 Update. The truck has been at House of Boost for about three weeks. I happened to buy my HPtuners from a guy from there, and when I was there we discussed the truck being a guinea pig for their dedicated drive/8 rib setups. This is essentially a tweaked TBSS kit they are mocking up for production for our trucks. Shaun and Jeremy out there have been a pleasure to deal with. I went out there today to swap out my new wheels and took a few quick pics. Bear in mind this is nowhere near finished as we are waiting on some more parts to arrive. Right now it is just in fitment stage, and blower is not the F1 and intercooler is about half the size of the one I am going to use. Couple of teasers for you.

sleepingcrna Posted August 15, 2011 Report Share Posted August 15, 2011 Really good to see some progress and direction you're headed Shaun. This should be fun to watch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kcsilveradoss Posted April 16, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 16, 2012 Alright, first off, my apologies, it has been way too long. With the track closing here I completely lost interest in getting this done (along with life getting in the way). I will be shifting gears on this, and making some changes to the build. Picked this up locally today off of Craigslist of all places. Im hoping to have this thing burning fuel before end of summer. I miss just enjoying the truck.

1slow6.0 Posted May 6, 2012 Report Share Posted May 6, 2012 so what happened with the production of a kit? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kcsilveradoss Posted May 7, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 7, 2012 the production kit is done. They should be releasing it publicly soon, but I'm sure it can be purchased any time by calling Shaun or Jeremy at House of Boost. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr.Scary Posted June 19, 2012 Report Share Posted June 19, 2012 in looking at your earlier bracket mockup. that may pose issues for people with electric water pumps.. doenst look like the inlet at the top of the pump would clear. ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
