Yeah I would probably invest in one of those because I have no clue how I would fabricate that cross over and the headers perfectly without a vac leak so I would def buy one of those. Seems worth it

You have any more information you would like to share with us about that???
Like a build thread by chance, I see that's only your second post in over a decade.....and it's a good one!!! Lol

Hahah I need to update that thread, I randomly saw this thread started and had to reset my password to log back into this group, it's been many years.
My truck has been ls swapped for probably 6 or 7 years, it was a stock 5.3 with 4l60e, started to get bored with it so I pulled the heads and installed a cam and port and polished the heads. I used the hooker manifold that holleys sells for the passenger side, used a stock driver manifold on the driver side, made my own crossover. I wanted to keep AC so I had to place thr turbo in a different place then I've seen many others do. I ran a 3" intercooler behind the grill. The downpipe is 3" until it's under the cab and it goes to 4" out the back of the truck behind the rear tire. I'll work on updating my thread and with more pictures and videos

Heck yeah that’s awesome!!!! Without slicks I’m sure it spins the tires at any speed. I know even when my car was at only 550 wheel Hp it would have traction issues with 18” wide slicks.

Dude that things awesome. What rims are those?

Yes it definitely has traction issues but that kind of makes it fun to be able to spin them at 45mph when I get on it

If you're having traction issues with 550whp on slicks you need to work on your suspension set-up.

It’s fine on the track but the roads aren’t easy to hook up on. It dead hooks to 10.00 in the quarter, only 2980 pounds

I use Huron speed kits on majority of the truck builds i do. They make good stuff!!
