Default Baddest truck in the world?

How fast would a GMC Sierra RCSB Stepside with a 408 stroker, Vortech Supercharger, and some Nitrous be? Of course it would have a strong tranny and a good convertor. I think that truck would haul major ***. Kinda my dream truck at the moment. Is this set up possible? Also what kind of numbers would this thing have. HP TQ and 1/4 mile.

I wouldn't even consider a supercharger to feed a 408. I'd go right to a turbo setup. All the truck supercharger setups run off the stock serpentine belt and I think that is alot to ask of one belt to spin the accessories and a blower trying to flow large amounts of air.

There are several turbo kits to choose from and the turbos that will fit on these kits could easily supply a 408.

It could be a 9 second truck if done right.

2tone - You're not using the stock drive belt to run the supercharger right? Your setup should rock.

Well change that to a turbo set up then. How much $$ you think it would cost to build this motor if you already had the truck. Like how much for the tranny, diffrential stuff like that.
