Chevrolet LS Truck FEAD Vortech Supercharger - Polished V-3 SCi LS-Swap Kit EFI

4GX218-158L
This Vortech LS-Swap Kit designed for vehicles equipped with fuel injected Chevrolet engines using a LS1/LS2/LS6 style intake manifold and LS Truck Front End Accessory Drive (FEAD) will get you a 30-75+% horsepower gain depending on engine size and boost level! Black Polished upgrade option is pictured for reference only, actual item will come in a Polished finish. This is the swap kit which will require a custom tune done locally after you swap the platform, and does not include a fuel system, programmer, or tuning. This kit WILL NOT work on a vehicle which originally came with an LS engine, those kits are much more expensive. There is no intercooler included, so on pump gas you can likely only run 6-10 psi of boost, depending on compression ratio. These kits use a shared 6 rib drive system running with the standard front end accessory drive parts of the LS Truck system. It will limit your max power potential, if you plan to make over 600-700 horsepower you should look at the C5/C6 Corvette LS-swap kits which use a dedicated 10 rib drive and can make over 1,000 horsepower.

Note: Looking to maximize the performance of your LS truck? We recommend upgrading to Vortech's new Heavy-Duty Tensioner. Designed for those pushing their LS engines to new limits, this automatic tensioner ensures optimal efficiency and reliability across all RPMs and boost levels.
