I'm sure it will go. Every time I drive my truck I am so glad I did my swap.

Looks great!


Reminds me of a twin turbo build I've seen..... where the alternator was also painted/powdercoated to match.

That looks awesome! Is it a tunable system or does it do that its self?

Thanks. It mostly does it itself. I tell it what i want for ratios and it tunes it by learning. Kinda nifty. It builds its own fuel maps and charts off what it learns. I can tell the difference in idle already from when i first ran it. Hope in a few weeks i will know if it was worth the money or not.

Thats pretty cool! The reason I was asking is because I've been learning how to tune my truck with HP Tuners to the factory PCM on my 69.

That is one of the reasons i got that kit. I dont have to mess with it. Would be cool to be able to play with it if i knew how.

i still need to torq everything down, but that will be after i put the Fbody pan on. i plan to polish the front of the heads to a mirror finish one day. waiting n boxes, I have a moroso electric water pump, Doug Thorley long tubes headers, and a speedway motors alt and power steering bracket. I will eventually get a cam after a bit more research. I have learned a lot from everyone here, but this is it!! the 6.0 2005 denali motor finally painted with silver high temp engine enamel!!

Re: LS swappers, post up your pics!!

I really like those valve covers and matching air filter. still haven't seen the polished version tho. Do they have room for big roller rockers on L92/LS3 style heads?
