Steve's truck that I tuned is the best so far on our chassis dyno for a stock long block 5.3l.

With a LS6 cam, dual springs, one piece push rods, custom front mount single with a 468 on it.

Through the 35" tires and 20" wheels. 4l80e, 14 bolt rear.

19psi......681 rwhp.

stock 5.3 block and heads? What was the temp and elevation? Could a stall converter hold back the #'s?

Was kinda wondering myself too. I wanna up it to 15# but just was curious.


Hellbents10: Was there heads studs involved to hold 19#? How much timing were you running on 19#?
