Diesel Killer / fun daily
Alright I don't have the lightest truck. Currently as she sits:
01 Tahoe
6.0 lq9
Long tubes / cai
4l80e
3200 circle d
4.56 gears
6" lift
35" tires
I use it as a truck.
Need to know what direction to go. I believe I would like the stock stall speed for drive ability. Need the truck to smoke the diesels around town and some of these smaller lighter cars as well. I need it to smoke 6.2s of any generation. I need it to embarrass a new 60k truck. Thus I've decided to modify this one.
Should I go supercharger or turbo charger. Single turbo or twin-turbo?
I am open for expert suggestions as I'm ready to start ordering parts.

At a minimum, a Procharger D1SC with an upgraded 3-core intercooler.
You're stock stall idea won't work. You'll need a looser converter in order to take full advantage of the Procharger. I would also run a helical gearset to keep it quiet. The Circle D 3200, if you specify to Chris what you're doing, he'll build it a little loose so that when it stalls, your Procharger is building boost. This is a good thing. I would run the converter unlocked in 1-3 gear and lockup in 4th at 40-45mph.
You didn't mention a cam. You can get a cam spec'd very easily from Patrick G. He can spec a "stealth blower cam" that has a stock idle but will take advantage of the Procharger.

Thanks for the input!!
Cam is a comp cam 227/235 iirc . It's in the forsale section but I may use that cam. It's rated as a max torque cam on their website. Plus it's bnib. A specific sc cam is not out of the question.
What's your thoughts on a F1 sc instead of the D1??
