That truck is perfect for everyone. Not overdone not under. No stupid high gloss paint with horses airbrushed into the tailgate. Just a manly truck. Good job.
I did almost the same setup in my 05 a few years ago but 4.8L with a 2300 magnuson made just over 500 to the tire was my favorite daily wish I kept it that way
@@AZProPerformance I have a new RDS spacer for that blower when you turn the boost up it helps a lot. I was going to set it up for meth injection under the supercharger lid so it doesn’t hurt the rotors but I never did before I sold the setup and went turbo. If you want it shoot me a DM you can have it
Y’all seem super knowledgeable I just bought a 4.3 I plan on doing a swap to the vortec 5.3 how well do these motors hold a charger? Y’all get any longevity out of yours or were y’all just racing it?
Sweet Truck Build guys! I just bought a 03 sierra on saturday and cant wait to get some parts from you guys. Im in cali so the go fast will be a bit tough but everything else will be great!
What a great truck. i had a crew cab version a few years back and this was the end goal before i went stupid and bought a jeep. i still miss that truck.
I want to say the rotors are directional and I thought I seen one on the wrong side. I'm not certain tho. Sweet build I want to get a street truck project started
At 11:18, buddy definitely had the driver's side rotor on the passenger rear, lol. You can see the "L" on it, and after the cut-away shot, you can see the pattern is reversed. Good catch though, I've seen guys run them backwards and not even realize it
I would have added a new set of roller rockers and matching springs to eliminate the excessive wear to the valve guides (and entire valve train) that high-lift cams cause on the Gen 3/4 motors.
wow , that is amazing and so awesome that you did NOT have to butcher and cut the frame to get a Lower stance , very nice ,and you have all the strength of the frame too , can you post the model of that drop kit you did on the rear please , thanks man , love the look , great job ! i want 1 of those super chargers uggg
Perfect stance, I'm gonna have to copy tire size and drop. I need tires, and have the same truck, other than a 408 stroker, I've thought about a blower, but already a handful. Big thanks, it's just the way I want mine to look
Love the set up! love the truck overall awesome work and video. 👌👍👍 I own 2 of these short beds 04 sierra and 00 Silverado both with the 4.8s beautiful rigs. Always fun to wrench on!
Kinda late with my reply, but I have the exact same 1.9L magnuson supercharger with a BTR stage 3 truck cam, and TCI 2800 stall converter and I made 573 at the rear wheels. I recommend you check the duty on your injectors and the fuel pressure at your blower. You dont seem to be getting the power out of that blower that you should. Granted I have a 5.3 in my Silverado, but that's to much of a gap in power. You're basically getting crank horsepower at the wheels and that means only a 8-15% power increase from the blower. Also, PULLEY UPGRADES!!! Seriously. But if you're pleased with your results, by all means ride out. I'm not bashing your truck or build by any means, I just think you can get much more power than you are getting from this build. One last thing, what heads are you running on the 4.8? If I remember correctly, there was 2 or 3 castings that were horribly restrictive and that is the best way of unleashing extra ponies with forced induction. Oh! And 1 7/8 long tubes! Forgot about that one. Have fun. Nice build and like I said before, just some suggestions to maybe help you get a little more power.
Appreciate it! In the video we do make mention up downsizing the pulley, which we did later and got more power. This was only about 5.5 pounds in it, which is light. We down-sized the pulley, more boost and re-tuned before the new owner got it. It has been doing well now.
Thanks man! I agree, and one of the best sounding trucks I have owned. It is a Texas Speed cam and Speed Engineering long use headers with their exhaust / mufflers.
Beautifully done! I recently LQ9 swapped my 05 with 222k and have already been getting bad ideas floating around my head of...um...let's call it an intake manifold Vacuum elimination kit 🤣
Why not look into the 2019+ Silverado 4 piston calipers, or the C6 ZR1 calipers on the front and C7 Corvette calipers on the back? I've got a Brembo BBK on my Yukon and am going to do the C7 rear calipers. I got the Brembo kit before I knew about the C6 ZR1/2019+ Silverado calipers.
I didn’t see any mention of a c-notch, did it ever bottom out? Looking to do the same but was wondering if I should order the c-notch at the same time.
Wheels look awesome. Great Job on the build. I have an 02 Tahoe and I fell in love with the way those wheels look. Are those wheels Dubs S205 LUXE? Thanks 💯
There's nothing funnier than reading the comments of all the armchair LS experts here. 397whp on that setup thru a 4L80e is impressive. On 5.5lbs and mild blower cam I woulda guessed ~360whp
@@kylerickels6464 So you got a relatively big cam for a 5.3 in a truck. Point is, you have a 10% more cubes, likely bigger cam than theirs and lose less power through a 4L60e vs their 4L80e. 397whp on a parasitic supercharger with just 5.5psi is a great number. Any HP calculator would say the same and it still has a lot more to go with just a pulley change. I think people are getting a little too optimistic on hp numbers these days watching sloppy style builds with big 78+mm turbos on lots of boost.
@@Bob-Sacamano not at all man , everyone’s build is different my homie has one with custom z06 cams and a blower (not sure which one) but he dynod at like 480 to the wheel man… use the right parts for the right numbers, his definitely takes a little more of a beating then there’s would but those numbers are relatively easy
True, we are always fans of larger displacement, but we wanted to see what can be done with a 4.8 engine. Keeps the budget a little better! Thanks for watching.
@@AZProPerformance the 421 Ls we are fixing to put in a chevy truck will produce right around 700 horsepower. No turbo to get that power. It will have a nitrous system good for 200 to 300 hp more. It will smoke a 4.8 with a turbo no problem. Of course these aren't budget builds nor anywhere near the most expensive but really powerful tough motors.
@@AZProPerformance my buddy at the shop likes to build trucks. Big motors,4l80e transmissions and 14 bolt rear ends. The one that is getting the 421 is going to be full race mode. He had a Fairmont with a 408 and 400 shot of nitrous that ran the 8th in 5.2 seconds at nearly 140 mph. Trucks are heavy but that's what he wants to build.
I actually think it's a good number 390 to the wheels is no slouch. I have a 03 silverado rcsb 4.8 I want to cam and supercharge if I can get 39 off 5.5 lbs I'll be happy great video
I originally felt like those HP guesses were low. I mean cam, exhaust, Cold air intake, etc should net a 4.8 north of 300 whp. I would expect more after a blower. But, I guess they didn't increase injector size or pump size and also depends on what fuel they are running.
Yes, but remember, we are only at 5.5 pounds of boost which is light. It will go to a smaller pulley next week, to get 9.5 pounds of boost. Injectors are bigger and have more to give when we up the boost, without changing them. Just pump gas here.
@@Candyvyorn_ It does great on the highways other than RPM's a little high, but knew that would happen with the 4.10's. Doesn't;t down shift much at all, since it at 3k doing 80mph.
