There not a lot left in those motors but I am sure 425plus rwhp and tq will be easy but to get over 500 i would imagine will be very tuff for the toy's. I race a 4.7 with a superchrager with only a bolton 5. 3 ecsb z71 and beat him three times. The new ford is supose to be turboed to 425 at the crank so can't wait for the 6.2 to be putting down 500rwhp with boltons cam and tune.

Well just to let yall know the new tundra is a completly different truck, I work for Toyota and driven them and driven the old Tundra's as well no comparison. I love my Chevy but them new Tundra's are sick especially with that 6 speed auto.

OK then... feed back to Toyota to make a SERIOUS FJ55 replacement... STRIP IT... put a rock crawler motor in a 4 Door version of the FJ. Just a note... typical consumers don't know the history of the original FJ series. Amazing platform. Does 45 degrees mean anything to anybody... STOCK... on biased ply skinny assed tires? Toyota did NOT know their market when they marketed the FJ45 and FJ55. The market is still there... good for them.

Whats it cost to replace one of those 6 speeds? same with the motor. There will never be as much aftermarket for the tundra as there is for the GM's
