2001 RCSB Green 5.3(Cammed)
I am the second owner of this truck, I have fixed most all of the issues with this truck. Its a great, quick truck. A blast to drive and runs some mid-low 13's depending on the tire. I was going to spray it but decided I would wait because I have my eye on another vehicle that I would like to have.
Issues when I purchased the truck were:
A lean code..... this was fixed by removing a catch can that was set up wrong and vented to the atmosphere.
Next was the wiring with the fans (this was cosmetic) but I couldn't stand it so I rewired the fans to look stock. (800 dollar flex a lite set up).
I painted the tailgate and roll pan but still needs a professional touch, and the roof has a little clear peeling, I will add pictures of this as soon as the rain is gone. I want to be upfront about this before someone drives 8 hours to see this truck in person. It is a straight clean truck with these minor issues but mechanically its perfect!
