Default Up to date pics 8/15 + Mod List

I haven't put up any pics of how the truck is since the last round of paint, so here goes, plus I'll post up my list of crap I've put on her too...

5.3 w/ 220/220 112 .581 cam and 7.425" pushrods w/ ?comp? springs and retainers
Dynatech long tubes w/ high flow cats and ORY to 3" (I think) piping and hooker muffler
Custom tune via HPTuners
FLT level 5 4l65e w/ a P.I. 2800 stall
4.10 w/ detroit tru-trac and Yukon axles
Home made intake using stock airbox & AEM Dry Flow Air Filter
2/4 drop, Hotchkis TVS kit w/ monomax shocks
BFgoodrich G force t/a 295/45/20 rear, 265/50/20 front
custom center center console w/ 7" screen
SS Bumper cover and rollpan with Joe Gibbs Spoiler
Color matched handles and mirrors, XM Antenna Shaved & truck debadged

There... I think that's everything. Plus now I can search this thread when I forget what I did to it again lol... onto the pics!

Engine compartment... nothin special. Home made intake


Seriously, this is a hood reflection... Meguiars NXT 2.0 is freakin' sweet


Driverside rear shot... rollpan and partial JG spoiler


Front corner shot... SS cover and colormatched stuff


Side reflection and BFGs


Other side


Front passenger side


Lower front driver side


What... I take it offroad lol


Center console... Crappy pic, one of these days I'll do a thread in the Stereo section


Ptrucks.net sticker... only sticker on the truck


Back under the cover for the storm we should be getting soon...


One of the daily driver holding onto the cover for my truck lol


Sorry for all the pics... Now quick question, with my mods and full weight of the truck on slicks, what do you think my 1320' time would be? Some people say in the 12's but I dunno... it feels quick and beats other stuff on the street but I haven't had a chance to run it on the drag strip since I've owned the truck... been there a few times but always got rained out. Any guesses?

I've been meaning to... I just keep forgetting to do it lol. I got the screen in it, the cigarette lighter and 12v accessory outlet... inside the armrest is another 12v power and a/v in... basically a box for component cables that go to the screen. Everything stays hidden in the console and all you see is the screen... works for ipod or those mini ps2s... bigger stuff won't be as hidden lol. If you flip up the armrest in between the two seats are the amps, but they're hidden and covered by glass panel with LEDs under it and all that crap... no one ever sees that part cuz the armrest is always down, but it's there. One of these days I'll get to it

My truck ran 14.2 before the 3200 stall. Unfortunately due to rain, I wasn't able to get onto the track. I've been told by more than a few that I should be in the 13's when I do run. You're list of mods is similar to my set up.

And that shine is just KILLER

truck looks just about perfect, not overdone at all . I'd say chrome SS 20's would look better, but the painted 20's still look good.

If I was you I would be happy with high 14's out of a 5.3L with gears and a cam. :/ Maybe I am missing something tho.

Why don't you just make a run up to NED next weekend Mike and we will find out how she runs. I know from last summer that she will run atleast mid to low 13's. I am planning on being there ( Sun.Aug 24th) when the gates open
if you are interested.
