IRS in a gmt400

Yes you would need a tune plus a completely new fuel system, $4000 trans etc. A GT-45 turbo could be setup to provide about 550 HP on the stock emgine and give your transmission a chance to survive. I’m doing the GT-45 and it’s about $1800 all in compared to the $9000 supercharger and turbos have many advantages over superchargers.

If you really want 1600 Hp then start with a Mosier 12 bolt rear end, th-400 trans, shaffirov big block, turbo. The engine alone will be $15,000-$20,000, $4000 for trans 2500 for rear end. Toss in about $2000 for the fuel system

I’m not sure that you picked up on my sarcasm… I thought the “stock 350” would give it away.

Sarcasm aside that would be a killer build but it’s in whole new direction from what I’ve started already. My real goal is ls/lt not sure which, 700-800whp. Twin turbo most likely. I’ve been doing some research on using zf8hp95 from a trackhawk so I can also use its awd transfercase, possibly adding some supporting mods to that trans. But that is all years down the road.

No it will not work… at least not without a TBI spacer! Install spacer, then TBI, then the blower. The blower mounts to the TBI using the air cleaner studs! It is a 20 minute job. I am surprised more people do not do this.

I didn’t realize your truck was a ‘95 I guess. Hello Bast@rd truck brother!

You’ll have to call ARP for the extended air cleaner stud. I don’t see it listed in your screenshot.

I’ll find a way to make it a 45 minute job somehow

I’ll add it to the list
