Bad ***!. Definitely going into a TBSS. The front sumped swiss cheese oil pan gives it away. Need a better pan solution for the AWD trucks, moroso has a pan for the 2wd already, and with some modification to the subframe a c6 pan fits on 2wd models too.

That supercharger will be killer in a street truck! Shawn, how does the intercooler look on that intake? Can you get iat numbers under the intercooler in that intake?

we did a lot of modifications to the oil pan.If you look-the oil filter has been removed from the pan and it will be run with a remote filter.The AWD pan definently leaves alot to be desired but the mods we made,make them a ton better.

Kurt,the ic setup leaves a little to be desired as usual on these things-the iat is after the initercooler.

BTW-i still need those fittings-just forgot to call last week,i'll get up with you this week.

The Mast heads are great.They are made by Performance Inductions so it's really a no brainer for me as we use a ton of their stuff with great results.

I see. I know that RPM has modified oil pans for the AWD trucks in the past, and also offer what they called a "side oiler kit". Blocking off the OEM oil filter and using the oil galley plugs in the side of the block for improved flow.

I love launching hard and watching the oil pressure drop to 20psi on my truck!
