800hp Turbo LS-Swapped 1998 GMC Sierra

800hp Turbo LS-Swapped 1998 GMC Sierra

This 1998 GMC Sierra has been transformed by Rodrigo Rivera into a high-performance truck capable of outpacing sports cars. Initially equipped with a 5.7-liter Vortec, the engine was swapped to a 6.0-liter LS with forged pistons and rods. The setup includes a custom grind camshaft, GM 243 cylinder heads, LS7 lifters, a trunnion upgrade kit, and an 80mm billet S480 turbo from VS Racing, producing over 800 horsepower. It features drop spindles and lower springs at the front, a CalTracs traction bar flip kit in the rear, a two-inch cowl hood, and Hoosier drag tires. Managed by a Holley HP ECU, the truck is designed for both events and street cruising.
