So how much boost?
Hey guys,
I was throwing around the idea of adding a Kenne Bell onto the Denali. The motor is stock aside from CAI and headers. My question is how much boost would be safe on a stock 6.0L. This is a daily driver and I would like the truck to remain reliable. The Kenne Bell runs 6 psi but I think I would like to add a smaller pulley and go for 8-10 psi?? is that safe?? The truck has about 55k miles on it > Catback Exhaust, Shorty Headers, Cold Air Intake, 180 degree Thermo, and I do have TVs in the truck so Im also wondering if the smaller pulleys would effect the needed power for the TVs???

As far as your TV's, they dont require too much voltage to run. A supercharger will not effect the output of the alternator.

Oh ya I drive mine everyday, In fact I just got done towing a camper that weights 10,500 in 85-90 degree temps. Never missed a beat. I was suprised the highest my tranny temp got was 170 also.
