I'm jealous!!The new escalade feels really really strong on 10#s. I put a converter in it that was suppose to be a 28-3k stall but ended up being about a 4500 stall. The transmission doesnt like that with all the weight of the escalade. I already went through 1 tranny and exploded 1 transfer case. Nobody makes any parts to beef either one of those components up so Im kinda in a holding patern as far as turning boost up or any of that, so with that being said i dont have enough ***** to take it to the track and launch off the 2 step and get a good time out of it. ...

I'm sure I will run into you at beach st. Or kdale. Once it is running again I will be driving it a lot since the tbss is gone and I'm selling my honda in a few weeks. Its gonna be my only ride until the Camaro comes in.

But its fun and feels good on the street. I thought the Trick kit used the stock manifold on the driver side, you are not...... whats going on over there????? You dont happen to still have the livernois kit laying around do you????

I haven't talked to rossler in a few months about it but last time u did he had still done nothing with them because nobody actually made any hard parts for them. Hopefully that has changed, I will give him a shout and see if that hasp changed, thanks for the info. No it doesn't mess with the shifts, it's just flashes way to high. I'm too lazy to pull the tranny again and have it down for a few weeks. Plus I want to sell it so I can build a NNBS truck

And now for my boxes Rick dropped off!
I had the bottom of the bottle coated with LineX so it wont get a fubared when I take it in for refills. The kit is a Nitrous outlet plate kit with bottle heater bracket, 78mm plate. I got the Progressive controller from Trick, and he also took care of me with an FJO wide band that goes with the controller. Thanks for the good deal and great service Rick!
