The real question is, can the Fleetwood tow the Tahoe?
Now THAT would be a sight! |

What's it supposed to put out for power with that Supercharger? Just for comparison purposes, the Vortec 350 was 255hp & 330 lb/ft and the Vortec 454 was 290hp & 410 lb/ft.

Had a 2WD 1999 suburban with the 454 and it was pretty well 14 MPG no matter what you did... But it had surprising acceleration for the size of the truck!
That's a nice looking tahoe! I would totally own one like that if it was a 2-door. Many years back I almost bought a 1995 Yukon GT 5-speed! |

Thanks!
This truck has never been dyno'd. It is running around 8-10 psi of boost right now. The Powerdyne charger is capable of up to 18 psi of boost. They advertise a 150 horsepower increase with 18 psi. |

I'm coming over. Will you be home at all tomorrow? My friend with the IROC would go crazy over that thing.
I don't really like the lights though. Its too flash and out there. I absolutely HATE altezza tail lights and the clear turn signals don't sit well with me either. I could stand the offroad lights if they weren't mounted on that pansy bar. Get a full wrap around brush guard and ditch that dinky little thing.

Well that's freakin' awesome. I've always thought the 4-door Tahoes were kinda like the Suburban's retarded little brother, but that thing kicks ass! Good color combo, good upgrades, good grief! Who makes the lift; I may get one one day for my 'Burban, once I have one thing or another on the road so it's not doing Daily Driver Duties.

Do you happen to know which Powerdyne blower you have on the car?
I'm crossing my fingers it's not a BD11-a... I have never seen one on a car that didn't have to be rebuilt due to internal bearing failure. |

All I found is the part number, K10520101 on the supercharger.
If anything does go wrong with it, I am just going to take it off and run it N/A.
So far so good: 1,500 mile trip home and put 380 miles on it here in IL.  | | Cadillac Discussion Tools | | |
