Black Bear tune is $200 to 300 depending on how you go about it. Also, Black Bear is a supplier for Magnacharger. Send Jennabear a PM she will get you some quotes on everything you need.

Almost every vehicle they own has got a Maggy on it, so not only do they sell it they use it. Great source for info right there.

Shoot me an email ([email protected]) with the system/finish you are wanting (part numbers are at magnacharger.com). We unfortunately don't sell motor mounts.

I've been considering a Radix or equivalent for my 2000 6.0L tow vehicle. I don't need blazing power but I need something to overcome elevation and add a bit more low end torque.

We have towed vehicles and moving trailers with both the SSS and the Tahoe. The blower has no problems at all.

Thanks, I'll keep you in mind. I and looking for people that are towing with a 6.0L SC for some input. The only one I've talked to said he hauled 9,000lbs over Donner Pass weekly and it had no problem anywhere but the mileage was 5MPG. He said it basically allowed him to do everything one gear higher.

He suggested that I install the SC and then only use it in the extreme climbs and not blast up the hills (like him). Mileage unload went up slightly though. He said we have to really watch the MPG because it was so easy to climb hills but at a terrible MPG.
