Selling my 2017 Silverado 1500 Z71 with 5.3L engine. Daily driver with 35,6xx miles. I built it for what I was thinking I wanted but realized it isn't no longer what I want. Have changed my mind and looking into ¾ ton diesels. It has a TVS1900 Magnuson supercharger installed with full exhaust. Conservatively tuned by MS Tuning in Richmond, TX. Injectors are at 65% capacity and putting down around 440 hp and 500 tq. I wanted it to run hard, but maintain longevity. Title in hand. See mod list below. Would consider trades for ¾ ton diesel of similar value. Truck has been well taken care of and garage kept. Willing to deliver up to a certain distance; however, beyond that, buyer will need to arrange for shipping and costs. Asking 49,500. Location is Conroe, TX., 77303. Truck has been meticulously maintained and garage kept.

Engine/Drivetrain:
Magnuson TVS1900 w/ one size smaller pulley (Professionally Installed)
Texas Speed & Performance 1-7/8 Long Tube headers
Texas Speed & Performance Off-Road Mid Pipes
MBRP Cat-Back exhaust
4.10 Gears (Professionally Installed)

Interior: (Professionally Installed)
Replaced all speakers with Rockford Fosgates
JL Audio 10" Sub
WeatherTech Mats front & rear mats

Exterior:
6" Fabtech Lift
20 x 12.5 Fuel Wheels
Bushwhacker fender flares
WeatherTech bed mat
Rollback bed cover

I have a classic car that I want to be able to trailer to shows at good distances. Right now I borrow my buddies diesel instead of putting the load on my truck.

BigErn - hell of a build. I've been looking around for an eventual S-charger for my '07 5.3. Used to be only one or two builders of those and now it's wide open, plus various used OEM units from Camaros and Vettes for sale and most are plug and play with everything needed. How much did you shop for your set up and you have any wise experience re charger selection for the 5.3 to pass on? Have watched some guy out of Texas slap on SC's to trucks and vettes on Youtube - makes it look simple. Hardest part is no doubt getting her tuned to ideal.

Edit - would be a blast in the dunes, places like Pismo if they still have those run-what-ya-brung sand drags! What's the most you've done to really test her out?
Take your time and do your research. For warranty reasons I had a reputable shop do all the work. I liked the magnuson 1900 for the 5.3. Wasnt overkill. If I had the 6.2 I would have opted for the Whipple. I didn't want to push to much on ther motor where I would have had to upgrade injectors and pumps. Wanted ther power, but wanted it to last also. Magnuson has the install manuals online. Seems straight forward. Something I am sure I could have done over the weekend. I will say this, never trust the can tune that is sent. People always say it. Got it to my tuner a week after install. Come to find out, the factory tune had the wrong injectors selected. If I had to do it all over again, I would have gone with the high flow cats instead of catless midpipes. It's so much louder and at long periods at idol, I can start to smell exhaust gases.
