LOL, we do quite a bit of work with the sheriff offices, but all are down south along the border.

Understood. I was responding to the OP asking about a TVS1900 on a 5.3L.

oh ya, it's going on a sheriffs truck hahah. they need instant power up to about 120mph , and good torque for border patrolling and going off road.
you wouldn't believe how hard these guys are on their trucks!
that's one reason we're doing a maggy, good reliability!

thanks for the input,

allen
Keep us posted on this one if you can!

Ya, that's what confused me, cause you mentioned the 112 on a 5.3L.
And I thought he was asking about a tvs.

My point being, that a TVS, being more efficient, typically will see more boost.

EDIT: I have a larger than stock cam, so with stock, I would expect even more boost out of a TVS. I was in no way commenting on your 383, as it is not a direct comparison to my or the OPs 5.3L.

I see what you mean, ya, of course i'm sure the tvs would make plenty of boost on a 5.3L

How the hell do Sheriffs get to fix up their patrol vehicles like that?

Actually Allen has hours and hours of "community service" that he has to account for.
