Yeah forgot to put that the Z was on motor on the last run. Truck weighs about 4700lbs, I'm 230, driver is like 140. Not sure what the truck was spraying. Maybe a 150.

Syclones are probably one of the sickest cars/trucks out there IMO just cause they are so unsuspecting. They roll the hell out from a dig as you can see.

I also dont see it making 550 with just a turbo swap. Those motors are far from reliable and thats a ton of power for a 4.3 litre, auto, and AWD.

It's a two-bolt main and the rods are made of paper. That thing was doing work from a dig though. It sounded like it was revving quite a bit higher than stock too so I'm sure there is more to it.
