2nd gen 5.7 Engine failure @ 220k miles

Since the mods keeping deleting my post, I'll just list the failure.

Whelp. The unthinkable happened and the engine in my 2nd gen died/ seized likely due to the driver's side timing chain tensioner letting loose. 220k miles on the clock. I put so much time and effort into this truck and intended on keeping it until the wheels fell off. I tried to find a new/ refurbed engine for a swap, but all of them void their warranties if I install the TRD supercharger. Getting a used engine isn't what I want to do.
So, I'm letting her go, the bright side being I have a 2024 Limited Crewmax with iForce Max and 6.5' foot bed arriving in 37 days. Not looking forward to a car payment again and everything that comes with a new vehicle, but I haven't bought a brand new car since 2007. I am excited though.

 

Dang - sorry to see this!

How many of the 220k were with the blower?

And what are you doing with the blower?

 

Congratulations on your New purchase!!! you will be the envy of all the Tundra Owners like myself that had to buy 2015- 18. lol. JK Man I am really happy for you!!

Man, that makes 2 of us. Haven't had a new car since 07, not sure I'm looking forward to a 2024 or newer vehicle for me.

 

Was also gunna ask what you were doing with the blower but though it might be “too soon”

 

Somewhere between 10k and 15k miles probably. I'll know for sure if I had my maintenance records in front of me. Blower sale is pending.
