Doing this on my phone btw lol


going to color match the door handles - grille trim and what not next week. Rims and everything else is going to remain the same

Matt Shue near Richmond will be tuning everything. Once it's all together.

Goal is is to keep stock apprence as much as possible.... unless I can get a good deal on some rims

Are you trying for NA? Not a very aggressive build if so. I'd a P1/ D1 over some nitrous, but it's your money!

Nice truck however

Going to see where this set up gets me number wise. I plan to send my heads out to a guy in Michigan to get cnc'd as well. I didn't wanna go procharger and what not because I'm looking to build a rcsb next so I can't go to crazy with funds. I've seen similar set ups put down 550 pretty easily. So I guess that will be my first goal then see what I can do to get some more out of it depending how the tuning goes.

Default Qtp cut outs and nitrous outlet

so I got my QTP cut outs in and made the order for my nitrous outlet plate kit.... that kit ended up being $1800 with added options. So... I'm not aloud to buy anything else so guess I'll be throwing stuff on shortly. Phase two will be sending heads out and getting a Holley hi ram.

You'll be losing power if you go holly hi-ram on a NA motor, just saying. Save your money.

Stock intake will give you far more torque down low, which you will want to keep.

Also took the side molding off and the badges. I left the steps so my daughter can still get in and out of the truck easily. I don't really plan to go crazy with the looks anyway.

Cant go crazy with funds, but you can spend 1800 on nitrous?

I sold my P1 kit (which would have gotten this thing to 600 no problem) for 2100 shipped.
