Default Couple pics for the old 1st gen.

GDS stage III turbo.


Rear after 18" rims.


Passanger front, after 7226S coil lift spring install.


Driver front, just getting into the body work. Still got a ways to go.


Front.


With the DDP custom injectors and turbo added max boost is 52psi and the couple runs the clutch held just rolling into boost in 3rd gear in would fishtail like crazy. A Southbend Double Disc clutch is on its way and I still have to install the electric fuel system. Hopefully with the help of some slicks I can be the first 1st gen 5 speed in the 12's. Its got the power and trap speed but getting off the line and staying spooled is the tricky part. We'll see a little later in the spring.

I gotta wait for the clutch, the clutch it has will only hold 450whp and I'm blowing through that pretty easy. Yea my sivlerado was sweet but between the Dmax LBZ and Cummins I think I'll be ok. lol
