I dont know of any root style blower that hits that high of boost (a least i havent heard of any).
Great news. What are your thoughts on HPTuner? Where did you purchase it?

Hp Tunners (i bought the PRO) is a very easy system to use. Well if you dont have to do the tune. I started looking through me tune on there and OMG i wouldnt even know where to begin to change my tune. I bought it from Summit Racing. i think there is a price lock on it. i looked every where and it was all the same price unless it was used.

Summits part number is HPT-6021. The cab is okay. The rockers and the floor part that was added is rusted and needs to be replaced. By the time i get done with this cab it wont even look the same (shorten it 2in and put suburban doors all the way around). it will end up on my frame and i m going to shorten the bed from an 8 foot to about 5.5 foot box. all custom.

Re: My 68 C10 Blowen LS2

I havent been on this site for a few months but heres an update on my truck. Well the supercharger inter cooler plate is cracked/ #8 in my cylinder head is cracked wich is what caused all my motor problems. So once i found that out the truck was parked due to lack of money. So no money = no running motor and no crew cab of the frame. Thank you everyone for your support!!

Who's your tuner in Vegas? I'm doing an LS2 swap and need someone to dial this thing in.

Re: My 68 C10 Blowen LS2

Well the motor is back in. I think ive found the problem, i think i fried the pcm. I tried 2 new ones and it not linking up right. Right now the truck is in storage and havent found time to work on it. My garage is currently being taking up by my dads 66 Tempest convertible that is getting full floors and a whole lot of other work.

Re: My 68 C10 Blowen LS2

I see that your truck is in storage, but do you have any further information on:

"the headers im running 03 suburban headers(bigger primary tubes) that i had to cut and chop to make fit"

How much chopping was involved? I see alot of guys are running 00-02 F body headers but I dont like how the drivers outlet is pointed at the frame. Any advice or pictures of your header clearance around the steering or of the header outlets on your truck.

Thanks, John
