4.56s haven't been an option since the 1990s. I swapped mine along with a Detroit locker and tossed the gov junk.

How do you like the Det Locker? Always thought they were badass.

I have one in almost every truck I own. My 05 is still my daily and its Detroit has over 100000 miles on it now, my 04 has one, my 1990 K5 Jimmy has one and the 2017. Yes I like them.

I must be missing something! Will a roots style supercharge of a LS engine fit a LT engine....NO a procharger supercharge is a centrifugal and with the right bracket may adapt over however my guess is it would cost more to re fab all the parts.
Also a LSA supercharger is NOT going to fit even a LT4 needs adapter plates on a LT1,L83. Different in so many ways.
Sounds like you want a LT4 charger. can be had for $1700-2200 with all the parts and then good power, looks factory, and easy install. 6.2 has better injectors and pump same as a LT1 so 600rwhp is in the cards. Oh and you have the 87mm TB so tune is all that is left but a copy compare and write will get the truck rolling.

You are missing that it's a 3/4 ton truck as it says in the title. Has an L96 6 liter which is a Gen IV.
