Ok guys, I pulled the trigger on a 2010 rcsb gmc 4x4, 5.3 LMG, 6L 80E, with 3.42's. My goal is 600 rwhp in a daily driver. I have decided on a tvs2300 packaged in the Edelbrock performer package. I want to run about 12 psi thru it, I have read and been told mixed info on what is really needed? Should I just delete, dod, amf and vvt and roll with it, (if so which cam is best for FI?) or swap pistons for diamonds and compstar rods? I want it right the first time, any suggestions or advise is greatly appreciated.... Thanks in advance.

Everything I said before in the other thread is still going to be correct, not sure how starting a new thread is going to change the answers.

Delete AFM/DOD, it will not handle that power and be reliable.

Needs new fuel injectors and the FF pump will only handle around 550whp. You are pushing the envelope past that mark.

Stock bottom end will handle 800whp easy, don't even both cracking it open.

Isky triple 12, LJMS stage 2 cam or similar will work great with boost.

I just wanted to start a fresh thread with the proper description of what I have, the other was about the older model trucks. Thank you! I'm really excited about this build and want to do it right the first time around. I've been reading all the info I can find on here I appreciate the input. What size injectors Would you run for my goal?

Injector dynamic's makes some 750cc injectors and Deatchwerks makes some 60/lb and 72lb/hr injectors that drop right in. Both would come with data for tuning and both are very good injectors to buy.

Also Fuel injector clinic sells some 650cc injectors that would do like 700hp on pump gas. Basically anything that is rated at 60lb/hr should be more than enough on regular pump gas to run 500-600whp without a sweat.

Im leaning towards the 72lb/hr set. Id rather go too big unless it will affect tune ability. I'd like room to grow with them. Also trying to figure out a drop kit, I want it as low as possible. So far I've just found the Mcgaughys 2/4" drop for 4 wheel drive. Is there anything I missed?

I've been discussing my build plans with Paul Webb at magnuson. I've decided to go with one of their kits with a 2300. Cam specd by BTR along with dod, AMF and maybe vvt delete, upgraded timing chain and gear, high volume oil pump, arp cam bolts, 3 bolt conversion, titanium Springs, chromoly 1 piece pushrods, new factory ls9 gaskets and all new seals. I'm not going to decide on vvt or not until I find a tuner that I'm comfortable with and see what they like to tune. Anybody know of a good shop in NC? As for the truck, she goes in for a denali conversion next week. Full front end, new bumper, grills, lower air dam, rear bumper and I'm buying a set a 22" ck375 denali wheels to go with it and strapping 33x12.50 toyos on them. I also ordered led bulbs for my head lights and got a set led tail lights from spyder, the red ones nothing crazy looking. I'm trying to have an OEM appearing regular cab denali that can run 11's. Guess I'll see how this all goes! If I'm forgetting something please let know guys...
