ok guys yall dont know sh*t. if you havent done the throttle body coolant mod where you reroute the cooling line, you havent experienced ANYTHING. i swear, i run 10's by just doing THIS mod. and if you buy the special kit off ebay, thats good for an extra 90 rwhp. oh and and dont forget about the electric ram air supercharger. and 20 hp resistor mod. now im running 8's, and pulling wheelies with my truck on 35's. no joke. i even broke the dyno. if you dont beleive me , you can ask my girlfriends dads boss ex wifes boyfriends brothers cousins son. he was there. <img border="0" alt="[gruffy cottonball]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_gruffy.gif" /> <img border="0" alt="[gruffy cottonball]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_gruffy.gif" /> <img border="0" alt="[rainbow]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_rainbow.gif" /> <img border="0" alt="[rainbow]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_rainbow.gif" /> <img border="0" title="" alt="[Razz]" src="gr_images/icons/tongue.gif" /> <img border="0" alt="[burn out]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_burnout.gif" />

Sure, some shops may do more than others, but for the most part, trucks aren't a big ticket items like F and Y bods.

I don't see what's not to believe. These guys showed the dyno charts. Man that would be nice to have a fat lopey cam.
Can you run bigger cams with a supercharger?

Default 40 rwhp with a cam?

I thought that I remembered reading a thread where a guy claimed 40+ rwhp from the Comp Cams 212/218, but I've done a search and can't find it.

Anyone remember the details?

You are correct. The truck did have all other bolts-ons including headers before the cam was installed, so it was ready to make good numbers.

They are very reputable. Why don't you go by one day?

If I'm not mistaken though, the 40rwhp was in a 99....so maybe less in the 00+.
