2006 CC lm7, DD street truck, Ive decided I need boost. Really want a rear mount but I already have ARH longtubes that I want to continue to use. So Ive decided on a TVS. Couple things I want opinions on. Truck has 3.23's and I will not be changing that, blowers generally speaking prefer lower gears, what are everyone's thoughts and some results from members who have run a tvs with high gears? I also want 2 get the 2300 vs the 1900, mostly because my future plans are more motor but thats at least 1 summer away if not 2, will I be dissapointed in the 2300 on the 5.3 in the meantime? Everyone seems to recommend the 1900 for anything less than a 6.0l. No plans of cam and head work on the 5.3, only looking for things that will also work on the other motor when that happens...Probably a 408. The truck will not see any track time, just a fun street truck. Thanks!!

 

bump.

 

Just get the 2300....If anyone says you will be disapointed im afraid u shouldnt listen to them...If you have the extra money get it and you will be set on your 408

 

You'll just have to run a dinner plate size pulley for now on the 5.3 but hell if ya got the cash buy the 2300!

 

I was in your shoes about 6 years ago and went with STS kit. Liked it alot.
Those hears might be a little tall for the blower though.

 

If the truck is light enough and you put a small stall conerter with it those gears should be an issue for a street truck. Some 3.73s would be ideal but the 3.23s won't be a disaster simply because if the tq that 2300 will make... I would consider a jackshaft model so you can underdrive it if need be on the 5.3 and overdrive it on the stroker

 

thanks for the help guys, any sponsors sell the tvs kits? think I've seen leftcoastjoe? mentioned quite a few times in older threads during my research. does that sound about right?

 

Leftcoast32 is no longer a sponsor or board member. Black Bear Performance is a Manacharger dealer,

 

I think a used 2300 jackshaft is in the classifieds right now. . .

 

My 1900 did fine on my 408, but if you have the cash get the 2300. What's your HP goal?
