you can probably get them to clear with enough chopping but when you crank the wheel and hit a bump, they will want to rub by the firewall. that offset you have on those wheels really helps clearance.
Thanks me too. Makes me question why I spent twice as much for the Trail Readys before. These are very similar in style and in finish and were about $240 a piece as opposed to $550 from TR.
i have not been able to get 37s on any of my GMs with a 6" lift , i think you may need to trim metal
If I mash it to the floor, which I almost never do, it spoils up about stock with a momentary pause and some smoke before boost comes up. Most of the time I roll in to off the line like when leaving a red light and there is virtually no lag in any tune. Most of the time the lag comes when in 6th gear with the converter locked cruising down the highway at around 60 or so and then trying to get it downshift and go so I can pass someone. Usually the trans takes some persuasion before it will downshift and this smoke and lag occur.

So this new turbo is better than the previous two you had that were both bad? I'm sorry for not going back and reading old posts, but did you install the bigger injectors at the same time you did the turbo stuff? If so, I wonder how much of the smoke is from injectors rather than turbo lag.
This turbo so far feels the same as the stealth 64 did. When I did the turbos I also did the stuff in my signature including new exergy 100% injectors and new exergy 12mm CP3 conversion.

once this baby pops do you plan to take the same add ons and put them on the Socal engine? Do you have an idea yet as to what HP you want them to build up?
Be cool to see a stroker built up as a daily driver. That other guy on here picked that older twin up with a stroker in it and it pulls like a monster
Yeah that would be cool. If anyone has the pockets for it its Ken. :roflmao:
Also man it was good of you to step up an apologize. You've definitely had a bit of a rough go with this build but that happens when you build anything with high horsepower or as extensively and as fast as you through it together. Its been pretty good to you considering that.

Do you get the K02's DT. They are different than the regular K02's and are supposed to last longer with a 50k mile warranty.
I really liked them when I had them. Good grip in all situations for me. They just didn't last as long as I liked and I drive easy.
Appreciate the kind words Ken, glad the truck is running great. I do my best to help the members on this site. As many know I ONLY sale tuning to my authorized dealers and to members on this site. If you are a member on this site I give a discount as well. I have already asked Rob to be a vendor and also have several current vendors put in a good word for me which I really appreciate it! Just playing the waiting game now so I can actually advertise here.
Also Tom, for being a mod on the site, your posts are really immature. Grow up.
I was being slightly serious, Blake. Do we really need another "train wreck" if something else goes wrong? Better to leave things on a good note.
If you don’t mind I’d like to keep the thread open until I can get dyno and track results up for the setup I’ve got now.
Also to answer the question about whether or not I would keep the current air and fuel that I have on this engine on a SoCal engine, I believe I would. I think it’s good for about 900HP or close to it and as a daily driver and a tow vehicle I think it’s pretty much as big as I can go for those applications. It’s not a race truck and has no cage and won’t ever.

I disagree and think that was un-called for. Watch your step here. Seems you're getting some big balls. Moderators don't need this and can react in a nasty way.
There was no need for anyone (especially a mod) to make a comment like that after there wasn’t any type of “derailment” or drama for a “train wreck” for the last 24hrs on this thread.
Mike, your friend never called me about that shifting issue on that LML regarding TCM tune issues potentially that we discussed on the phone. Hope he got his issues ironed out.
