Re: Tootsie build for my mother with cancer

I vote for the Turbo LS motor. I have seen many pushing 550 to 600 Horsepower on stock internals, but I know that isn't your style to not go all out on something. Here is a link to one that I've seen on here with a 5.3 with a single turbo. The engine held up fine, the stock 4l60e didn't last long though Looks like fun anyways!


No matter what you do I'm sure it will turn out killer!

Re: Tootsie build for my mother with cancer

I am in. My mom also goes by Lynne and is a cancer survivor of 25 years. I also had twin daughters with cancer and one is now 10 years old so I feel your pain. Hope everything goes well with treatment. I am sure she will love the truck!
