Any vids or more info in your truck?
Hear are a couple of videos . The truck is a lowered Z71 4x4 with a 6.0L, and front mount turbo. I run a T76 @ 14~14.5psi up hear in Co. The truck has a 4L80E, with a yank converter, 3/4 ton T case, with HD drive lines 3.73 gears. I run 68LB injectors. The rest is pretty much stock. The truck runs on pump gas and is a daily driver, with A/C and all the accessories. I have been 10.65 up hear in pueblo 4900' @14.5psi, and 10.59 in Vegas @12PSI in 95+ deg heat. I shorten the rods on the factory short block in Vegas when I turned up the boost to 15psi. So the truck is down until I get the new forged engine together.
