converters have come a long way. Thats very true. If it was my truck I'd rather keep it tight and add some sort of boost instead of going wild with a cam and heads.

Apparently the 2014's stall all the way to 2400rpm, whoda known? Hopefully going to get the truck tuned next Tuesday and hit the track to test this theory out next Friday. Really would love a 13 second pass before I've owned the truck for a year.

Currently with no tune and the cam, plus smaller overall diameter tires, I'm getting about 11.1L/100Km. I don't know what that equates to in mileage, sorry guys, but that's 90% city and I'm not exactly easy on it, plus it's getting cold now so I'm letting it idle a fair bit to warm up in the morning's, etc. Again, pretty happy with it.

I have weeeeellllll over-spent my budget for this year, so I'll have to see what next year brings, things got quite out of hand this year, I need to tone it down for a while once it's tuned, hahaha.

Thank you! They're GM Accessory wheels, I got them through the dealership I work at, they came in a bright chrome and I had them blasted and powdercoated.

I usually got to Cayuga, was there this past Friday night, was nice and quiet and surprisingly a bunch of trucks there which was nice. Where do you normally go? Cayuga or St. Thomas? I haven't been to St. Thomas in a very long time.

We usually go to St. Thomas, it's closer for us to head up on Friday nights after work. We all had boycotted St. Thomas for a number of years after it changed ownership a couple of times, it was a joke, weren't allowed to race without mufflers on Fridays, they only ran 1/8th, etc etc... the place was a joke.

Anyways, it's under new ownership again and is back to it's old ways it seems. I made an appointment to get the truck tuned next Thursday (a week from today) so I'm hoping for good weather Friday and to knock out a 13 second pass before winter and/or nitrous.
