Default Bought a new truck

Traded out of the Tahoe. No more Whipples...it's over.

Bought an '06 Silverado CCSB with the VMax package (LQ9), M70, 4.10s, Black w/dk charcoal leather! SOOOOOOO ROCKIN!

Dealer is swapping over my Baer Alumasport kit and 20's for no charge. Got 29k for my Tahoe, new truck Red Tag Sale price was $33759 (from 41500) so I only paid $4000 for an '06 Silverado, loaded w/the LQ9.

Pick it up Friday. Pix ASAP.

Yep. Same gear ratios with a larger TC and extra clutches...so I was told.
No more Whipple. Going for NA grunt this time.
First mod is that the dealer is moving over my Baer Alumasports and 20's. Then 33's.

um, are they aware of the little piston problem? lol, who cares. I was just thinking about doing the same damn thing, but, I would keep the whipple and still go with a 408. I'm retarded, I know.

Dude your 6L on 15lbs of boost is the only reason i'm about to go to the 2.75 pulley on my 4.8 radix. You are my inspiration.



Seriously though.
