^ you are the 1st person to confirm that it is keyed.


none of the GM spec sites mentioned being keyed/pinned. :-\


i had found one article a ways back where they had a '15 silverado l83 & they mentioned they had to pin crank b/c the lower pulley was spinning.
shrug


i tried looking for indication on mine but w/ bolt installed. i cant see if there is or not

I haven't added up the costs, but I think you could easily do a piggyback Holley Temrniator EFI setup with injectors in an intake for $3,000 or so. You wouldn't need a set of super crazy injectors or fuel system as it would just be offering a supplemental fuel system. An A-1000 pump, with -8 line and regulator feeding some $350 60lb injectors would be sufficient to support up to 1200+ hp w/ an LT4 HPFP and injectors and an intank pump. Yeah when you add allll that up it gets expensive quick but for somebody working up to that point above 800hp its the cheapest route and I would think the most reliable, vs these super expensive aftermarket HPFPs and injectors that IMO don't have a ton of run time on em yet.

I'm looking into Meth injection, but I'm not sure it's a realistic street option. I don't daily the truck, more of an evening/weekend vehicle.
1.Does adding the meth kit allow less fuel by adding octane? Would it allow me to run e85 on the stock system?
2. Does upgrading the pump in the tank allow any increase in fuel without injectors or cams? I don't mind changing that pump, I'm just not ready to tear into the engine. I'll do a full heads/cam setup at that point.
I'm mostly just trying to squeeze everything I can out of the blower on a stock motor with air flow in/out. Stage 2 will be Motor internals.

Unrelated and unhelpful, but what wheels are on your truck?

1. It does not. You will still need fueling upgrades, higher octane doesn't mean less fuel, it allows for more timing/less chance of detonation.
2. It might provide a slight increase but it would be very very minimal.

They are the 20" wheels from Callaway. They have their own line of wheels with the package. I'd like to have their 22's.
