My trans is the 6l80, I know the vettes are doing good with the 8 speeds. Haven't seen a modded truck with one yet.. And yes they have forged parts!!

Update on my truck, added meth and went from a 3.85 to a 3.7 pulley and it now makes 700rwhp and 637tq. Weather was shitty too, like 110 degrees lol

Here is our TBSS: My Purple Monkey Dishwasher TBSS Build Thread - Chevy Trailblazer SS Forum
HOB V1 w/D1SC headunit, wastegated, ebay IC, and some other crap. Currently running 6-8psi depending on the weather.
EDIT: I should add that owning a supercharged vehicle was a childhood dream of mine, and I have owned more than a few turbo cars - this thing is just more fun. That whine!

I saw what calculated out to about 750HP on Kurts truck. His was a LQ4 with ported 243's and a fairly big cam. 132 MPH at about 4200 lbs.
We hit slightly more than prochargers claimed max blower speed at 6800 RPM with a 3.2 pulley and a stock diamater crank pulley. He is 12 rib dedicated drive. Boost was slightly dropping off at the very end of the gears. That was likely because of the blower overspeed.
I dont know how high you spin it or what RPM your power peaks, but you could make more HP with a higher peak RPM with a 5.3. His flatlined at about 6300 but held that power as revs climbed.
