Nice dyno and times!

Just for reference, my '00 5.3 with small cam only makes about 300-310hp and 310-320tq and has ran 9.85 in the eighth mile.

Yeah the 3.08's feel fine, , I do wish I would have gotten the 3.42's due to the increased tow rating. As it sits I can still tow my GTO if needed. I am getting around 19.5 combined mpg.

I watched your YouTube vid, truck sounds great and pulls hard up top.

Nice numbers. Nice truck.

From a fellow gto guy, great minds think alike... Picked up mine on Saturday. Blue Granite for me as well, rcsb, opted for the 12 bolt g80 rear with 3.42's. Cannot wait to get some numbers. Just driving around bone stock, I can see that with just a tranny tune, lifting some of the tq management nanny off a bit, will result in severe tire shredding.

Let the mods begin!!!
