Default Synergy twin kit, 717 hp...

Yup, just as it says. Alittle 5.3 just chuggin along.





This was done with a stock bottom 5.3, turbo cam, and 317 stock heads with double springs. Spraying meth for saftey of course. And our twin turbo truck kit. The truck also has a 4L80E behind the motor as well.

No one has really pushed the 5.3's limits till now. I'm assuming it would actually be a pretty good motor with a smaller bore which is less prone to detonation, and that is what kills these motors in the first place.

A 4.8 will max out at more than most people say is "safe" with a 5.7. I'm throwing out a +1 on what will a 5.3 do?

For those of you who've never had any work done at Synergy Motorsports, I can tell you first hand (they did all my mods) they do INSANE work! My car runs like an absolute champ. Great numbers on that 5.3L!

What's the price going to be on the Kit? I'm getting ready to pull the trigger on a new Diesel truck, but between what I'm seeing from y'all & APS, I'm beginning to lean towards a TT Gas powered truck.
