Now I am trying to figure out how I can get a 5.7 vortec with my vortech supercharger, should be about 450hp and 470tq.
Just got off the phone with MVA and they said it has to be the same year or newer motor. So my only choice is a 5.7 engine out of a 2001 cargo van if I want to keep my vortec supercharger, and I do!!!
Jasper Performance Engine 400ci small block 350hp and 455lb torque, so with my V1 Supercharger at 8lbs should be 500hp and 575lb torque and that should rip the tires right off the rims http://www.jasperengines.com/performance/classii-.pdf
Is that a tec2 screen on your comp screen? I think you have done a good job on this rig. Not a fan of the platform but you do have more creativity than many people out there
how's the whole setup work that you have all the vehicle information playing on the monitor? I got a buddy with a new duramax who is looking to do something similar.
Well today I made a red light camera avoidance system.
Made a air cylinder out of a 6†piece of ¾ npt pipe, 5/16 x 8 bolt, 2 washers, 2 ¾ end caps and some rubber, then it fastens to a cable that ran to the license plate hinges. The switch runs to an air solenoid that activates the air cylinder.
Just hit the switch and the license plate slaps down on the bumper till you let off.
Doubles as a thanks sign when someone lets you over in traffic.
That's a hell of a lot of data to take in while driving! Reminds me of the scene in Airplane when the camera scrolls across the ****pit: Altitude, Airspeed, Wash, Rinse, Spin...
last month on the way back from Harpers Ferry, WV about 3 miles outside of Harpers Ferry on US 340 I seen a tornado coming from the right and thought I could out run it. But it got close quick. Then I saw a bridge and pulled under it. About 15 seconds later it hit and all hell brook lose the truck came off the ground and moved over about a foot then the Tonneu Cover ripped off and the back window busted out and bent the bed up then a washing machine hit the hood. $2600.00
