1999 Silverado LS Extended Cab Question
#16
Damn man settle down
what engine is in the truck currently? May not need a swap. 5.3s will get you all the way to 550whp reliably (with a good tune). If you never driven a truck at 550hp, don't knock it til you try it
Look at Trick Turbo
Jakes 4L80
higher stall converter
14b rear end swap
e fans
speed density OS
turbo friendly cam

its a truck. It's never going to be that fast. Full on drag builds hit 10s, daily drivers are in the 12s. Some exceptions to that, but it takes a lot of money to get there. The guys lower than 10s (two I can think of) probably have 100k into R&D and parts
I would turbo it, 4L80 it, 14b it. With supporting mods, and installation and tuning that'll keep you busy for 2yrs, and cost you close to 15k unless you shop around and get good deals
and for the love of god lay off the redbull

I might just mod the existing rear end though since he now said it's 4wd. Carry on bro
