Default Building up my Tundra's 5.7

Blew it up, finally. About 150,000 supercharged miles, daily driven, and raced all the time. It was my fault it blew. I was running on fumes and I was heavy in the pedal, it ran lean an kapow.

So I bought another block and started to beef that up. It's going in this weekend.

Good for 1000hp. I'm only shooting for 600rwhp. Still going to daily it and maybe later after I get the tuning all done, turn up the boost.

Added an oil cooler to my block. Previous one did not have one.

Different. I like it. It's nice to seem something non-LS for once.

How about some more details?

Looks like the new bottom end is forged. How about the heads? Are they ported or any special work done to them?

Who makes the cams? or do you have to get regrinds?

What kind of supercharger is on there?
