ON3 Kit is here! 6.0 RCSB 4x4 Silverado build
Everything is finally coming along. On3 kit is here and planning on taking advantage of this long weekend to install it.
Little history on the truck it's a 2000 Silverado originally a 5.3 z71, swapped out front ends to a 2006 and had it painted completely in and out Tuxedo Black with Metallics(Ford Color (._. ) ) and dropped in an Lq4. Lowered it 5.5/8, 22x8.5/22x10 Billet Specialties wheels and a few other cosmetic mods.
During a cam swap the lq4 had a hurt cam bearing so I pulled it out for a rebuild and used LS2 pistons and rods.. So pretty much an Lq9 now
After 4000 miles or so I had a Pac 1218 spring fail on me (228r cam) while idling but luckily there was no major damage done. At that point I got me some LS3/L92 SDPC CNC'd heads w/ Manley valves and .675" double springs hand port finished milled to 66cc, TickPerformance Stage 1 LS3 cam, and L92 intake.
That same week I swapped in a freshened up 4l80e w/ shift kit and pump mod, Circle D 4000 Multidisk, High speed 1 piece DS, and rebuilt the rear end w/ a Trutrac unit and 4.10's
Other than that the original plan was to go nitrous, bought everything for a nitrous set-up and all the goodies for it but ON3's kit was just too tempting so I had to go with it.
The welds on the Hotside are great! The cold side not the best but still decent since theres only 2 welds total. Everything feels great and good quality.
I'm still waiting on these parts to arrive:
-Yank ProTruck 3200 Multi-disk
-FIC 1000cc injectors
-2 AEM 320lph pumps
-Need to order a Map Sensor
Plans of now is to run it on E85 starting off at 7psi and slowly ramping it up to 10-12psi on their new 78/75 turbo.
Still need to Fix:
-Figure out how to get the NP263HDx transfer case working
-Front Driveshaft
-Most importantly fix the A/C. For some reason it quit working again.

Weather hasn't cleared up and no progress has been done yet. Only hick-up I see during this installation is the oil drain line. It's going to be a PITA to drop the oil pan since I have to lower the front diff. I can't find any 3/8NPT drill bit's nor Taps in any hardware store
