What blower is that? As far as the Whipple, if needed the pulley can be swapped out for more boost than I would want.
Edit: Magnuson correct?
Yeah that is a Magnuson. A pulled down 2.3 Whipple will be a monster though. Also, I wouldn't chance the balancer slipping on the crank. I pinned my crank because it's cheap insurance. I figure I will have to go 4l80, regear and get a tru trac with a blower to be comfortable at that power level. I wanna see 600 reliable hp out of it. I'll do it right or not at all.

I had a Radix 112 cammed and LTs on a stock transmission of an 04 Z71 Tahoe. Ran over 11psi on that bad boy, never an issue!

Thanks to both of you. I'm going to quit worrying about my trans now. Damn I love the sound of that Tahoe Jenna.

I did see that sumo but that was fun watching it again. Love that shit. I've just got a couple questions that I emailed Justin about regarding injectors and a tune. I got my tax return Saturday so now I just have to make a decision on injectors and then maybe need one last push and I'll be ordering it looks like. It might end up sitting in my living room until I get a nice weekend to install it but oh well.

I think i am about to pull the trigger on some 60lb injectors today.

Ill be interested on what you make hp wise. My truck is right at 500 to the wheels with cam,headers and sc. I had fuel pump issues so that has been upgraded as well. Trans is a built 4l60e, rated at 800 hp. This is with a MP112 SC with a 3.2 pulley.

Had a 2.8 pulley on it, but was a knock off brand pulley, belt kept slipping off, swapped it back out for the 3.2 i had works like a champ.

What injectors are you looking at? I'm trying to leave room for more boost later so I'm trying to not buy the 8.1L marine injectors that come with the Whipple but all the 60 lb ones I see are $$$. I was looking at some 50 lb Delphi that came on 2011+ 6.2L that are $130 but waiting for Justin's ok.

Yeah too much for me. I just ordered some 50 LB Delphi's with adapter harnesses for $150 total. Ordering the Whipple tomorrow. Also ordered knock sensors & harness, valley cover gasket and oil pressure sending unit. I hope this goes well. Brandon @Young28 what are you rolling in now? You parted out the bagged Denali didn't you?

The install might have to wait a couple months. I'll need to have good enough weather to ride one of my bikes to work in case I don't get the Denali running in a weekend. But then looking at a blower in my living room might be too much for me lol.

After install don't forget to check and retorque blower bolts. Mine backed off a little. Plus it just a good habit to make sure it doesn't cause headaches down the road

It's a done deal. Justin @ BlackBear sent an invoice for the blower over and I just paid it so it's official. I also learned my truck has EGR so I ordered an EGR delete set of block off plates.
