    need a little more power

    Well the day came and went. I had no choice but to use my 01 Denali to pull my 30ft 7900lb toyhauler over the weekend. It actually surprised me. With minor mods and a cookie cutter tune I managed to pull 209 miles on a tank of fuel and still had a little under a 1/4 tank left. My average speed...

    need a little more power

    I called comp cams and I was shocked at the cam I was recommended. I told him what I needed it for and that I had no power adder 54-456-11 ....... Here is the link. http://www.compcams.com/Company/CC/cam-specs/Details.aspx?csid=1085&sb=2 Seems rather small to me

    need a little more power

    Im not trying to go the fabrication route. Reliability is a factor. With a wife and three kids ride along on long trip everything must go smooth. No one that I know of has a bolt on turbo kit for this truck.

    need a little more power

    Can you point me in the right direction on a set of 4.10 gears. I wanted to do the swap but can't seem to find 4.10 gears fro the front axle. The guys at Blackbear are gonna hook me up with the tune. I just need to pull the trigger on the power adder

    need a little more power

    Your the second person this week to tell me about the bully dog tuner. I think I'm gonna go with a Supercharger though. I just have to figure out if i want a new Magnuson or buy this used Vortech. The used one of course will save me a lot of money but which one is better. I dont want to buy the...

    need a little more power

    The 8.1 is hard to come by. Most people that have one are not willing to sell it

    need a little more power

    If I may ask, What is your cam number and do you have a 6.0 in your truck? Reason I ask is putting a performance cam in a 5.3 and trying to use the same cam in a 6.0 will yield different results. Kev ---------- Post added at 05:02 AM ---------- Previous post was at 05:00 AM ----------...

    2002 5.3 whipple charged throwing codes

    Im sorry for jacking your thread but how do you like your whipple charger? I'm thinking about doing one on my 2001 denali. Any pros and cons would be greatly appriciated. P.S. might want to check for carbon build up. Even with a new egr valve carbon may be your enemy. Kev

    need a little more power

    6.0 engine. 3.73 gears. That was my thought on the supercharger also. I just wanted some feedback from people that have done it. I'm not looking for all out maximum performance. Just a little more torque really. Torque is what gets you moving. After I take off from the light its fine. Even...

    need a little more power

    I hear you. The only thing is I really dont want to buy another truck right now. I pull a 6000lb toy hauler. That is the total weight give or take a 100lbs or so. The cost os a new truck for 8 weekends out of the year does not make sense to me. We use the truck for family trips more than I do...

    Hello guys! Its been a while since I have posted. I've been a little busy racing. Anyway....I just got a new 30ft toy hauler trailer and while my 2001 denali pulls it, I feel I need a little more power. I have been looking at rebuilding the engine with better internals or just doing a...
