My kid just put a Magnusson supercharger and Doug Thorley headers on the above truck. Next week it gets a new exhaust (Black Widow I think). If he drives it semi normal, and not like a dragster, can anybody give an estimate as to how long the motor will last before it needs a rebuild. Truck ran strong before the supercharger, didn't burn oil and compression numbers were good. Is there anything he should keep an eye on as indicators that the motor is on its way out?
Thank you.
