sorry man, I'm not purposely trying to do this but I know its happening lol.

Ok so I have the Circle D 6l80 on hand

the Circle D 2800 stall triple plate

Richmons 3.73 for front and rear diffs

Eaton posi

SICK Moser Girdle for the 10bolt

5 x .125 aluminum driveshaft, balanced to 15,000++ RPMs

ID850 injectors

custom Ron Davis rad

Custom blower cam by Flowtech Induction + springs, retainers etc...

Circle D Billet flexplate

3.1 vs current 3.2" pulley + a bunch of belts from superchargerconnection

90mm ported throttle body


Will be getting:

Icon front coil over kit with built in shock reservoir + rear shocks
a bunch of gauges
Flyaudio nav touch screen made specifically for Chevy trucks
+ bunch of misc items.


Took the truck to the exhaust shop today for a custom true dual + X-pipe, with two 22.5 inch circular mufflers, dumped. Also have provisions for a resonator tube just in case it resonates at a certain RPM. The current exhaust consists of a CRAPPY 1 3/4 + CATTED 2.5" to 3" y-pipe, which BOTTLES down to 2.75 at the I-pipe and I have pictures to prove!! Will post later

so going from a 2.75" exhaust on an 8psi 427 onto a true dual, I expect to see big gains, also since the cats are going. Power should come from the ability to run more timing due to less boost.

Will post up some pics tonight and tomorrow when I pick the truck after the exhaust is completed.

Right, I also installed a 2" drop spindle, and took off the rear block. With the new tires the front is now ribbing the inner fender well on full steering wheel lock. The reason I changed the tires is because someone STUPID in the build process (not sure who to blame) installed 2003 stock Pirelli tires on my truck, and I found out after I was left on the side of the road with a flat tire!! Had to swap out the four tires and I now have 285/50/20 tires no wonder they're rubbing, but gave me some more speed in gear which I seem to like.

got the exhaust installed, and put in the 90mm ported throttle body vs the truck throttle. Based on injector duty cycle at the same AFR, it went up from 75-76 to 80% which is about a 35 to 40 hp gain, and guess what I could feel the SOTP feeling as well!

Im posting some pics of the exhaust before and after, the previous exhaust sounded REALLY nice at cruise and WOT, with zero drone, but it had no place on a 427 motor. The new exhaust makes my truck sound like my Corvettes (which I like), its a true dual with an x-pipe into dual mufflers, dumped. The only downside is the INSANE amount of drone I now have in-cab lol, will work it out with resonator tubes.

Notice how the y-pipe necks down to 2.75 inches at the i-pipe.

Simply amazing build , other than the O2 sensor mounted in the x-pipe incorrectly

ayousef

Thanks man!

thats an opening for the wideband, which is NOT permanently installed. I told them to install it AFTER the x-pipe but I didnt want to complain after I saw it lol. Here it had a rear o2 installed - which is disabled anyways.
