I didn't see how many miles were on it, that's what makes all the difference...

with avg miles (50-80k) I'd pay no more than 23k for everything, since it could blow up at any second, like anything that modded.

11Silvy!:
Thanks



****:

Oops!It has 52k miles.

What would blow up at any second? It has a truetrac, It has billet yokes, 1350 u-joints, a 5" driveshaft that is built for about 12-1500 hp., a built rollered 4l80e that never goes above 170 degrees even on hot days after a few pulls, sfi rated flexplate, circle d billet triple disc verter. I guess the next weakest link would be the connecting rods but there are numerous guys that have a lot more power than me on stock connecting rods. And if you are thinking the the trans would go out the posting says I would include another built 80e with the purchase. I thought I replaced everything that could blow up.

Very clean and tastefully modified. Must run well!

No clue what somebody will pay for it though...GLWS.

nice truck man, love the mods sure it moves. Rough guess is prolly in the $23-24k area (above stock retail but not by much). The people it appeals to are performance oriented not as much to the daily driving people who would worry about the reliability and think its "excessive". Thing is, performance people know the return on investment for power is pennies to nickles on the dollar and they know if they didn't build it, they are always skeptical (not saying your build isn't good, just saying in general). What you ought to do is find yourself a guy who has some coin and knows a little bit about performance but not too much to know really anything, reason is he will buy it cause its fast knowing little to nothing about the build of it or the effort to do so or any specifics of it. Then when it breaks he will take it to the dealership to have it fixed cause he won't have any idea what could be wrong. Love those kinda guys.
