How long will it last?

[DMG]

Magnusson gets about $4k for the supercharger now. Headers are probably a good $1k now. And doing it right - 7th injector and Split Second piggy back will run a other $1200 these days…

So half the cost of a LS swap.

 

[Slander]

Yes it also costs a minimum of $15k to SAS one of these trucks as well

The days of “how I did an SAS for $500 “ are long gone.

I though Ls’s were available at convenience stores

I was being sarcastic... we may need to re run some numbers, what's $2k in 2002 in 2024 money?? Fawk that's like $15k....... back to my hole

Hasn’t died in 230k miles, I don’t see how it can possibly fail now.

This...



And this...



Fixered... And this...



And this... Unless you're going over every inch of the truck, replacing worn out components and upgrading things, you're going to find a weak spot somewhere.

How old is the kid? Even if he's the most responsible kid out there, someone younger is likely to have a peer group that is going to push him to "see what it does now..."

And, clearly, you don't add a supercharger and then not really use it. Again, it'll be pushed to the point it finds a weak spot somewhere.

I meant over. But even me being drunk, I would know he is an idiot. Maybe he is drunk?

That is true but the motor is the cheapest part of a LS Swap.

Get ear plugs to drone out how shitty the 3.4 sounds with any exhaust but stock

Mine came with a Flowmaster 40, and I hated everything about that droning POS. Replaced it with a 50 and now it sounds good, little burble at idle, and no drone at speed.

The 3.4 in my T100 actually sounded good with a dynomax 3 inch and 3 inch pipe behind the cat.

Drone isn't a problem, it's the flatulent note that is. No one wants to hear that 3.4.

I'd rather hear a 3.4 than a 3.8 in a jeep with rice rocket cans on it.

They both sound like shit with rice rocket cans on them...

This thing got a hole i the block yet or what

 

[Briansc33]

maybe not as bad as the mini truck guys.But until you get into the newer toyota's. Every toyota owner is a cheap fuck

Not true. I spend plenty on rebuilding/upgrading my shit every season... Like a retard.
I built a nice Taco once, pretty much the exact same as yours, cost me way less than the the '85 I'm into now. Granted it ('85) started life as a race truck, but if you're 'wheelin hard it's spendy.
You wouldn't know about that

After he windows the block sell the supercharger to me cheap. Ill put it on my 3.4 with 350K miles without a second thought!
