In 2004, my wife showed me the SS truck. I wasnt convinced to get it, as I didnt want to get rid of my Dad's truck. It took a week of her convincing me to be serious about buying it. I was very upset with myself for making the decision, not totally sure, we went ahead with it.
It started looking like this





Since then, I've been working a little at a time to make the truck a little special,I've had my fair share of issues with the truck, but now, after almost 5 years.. I think I've finally created a truck that's been nominated for TOTM.

My project started with a K&N CAI, and a Flowmaster catback system. That was fine for me for a few years. Then, when my stock tranny broke, I started working with FLT and eventually wound up with one of thier Level 5 w\ billet output shaft transmissions, and a tune by Nelson. Even THAT was fine.. until I spoke with my painter\customizer in Texas.. Danny. Thats when we went with a 2800 stall TCS stall all billet converter


.


This also includes a True Cool 40K GVW trans cooler.





That really woke up the truck. Along with the Dynatech LT headers, Dynatech cats, the truck finally felt like a big bad blue beast.





Some custom painted parts by my buddy Danny "Tranny"











just a shot showing off the custom painted tail lights and part of the ISS spoiler
(which i think belongs on this truck!)





I've even had had a tribute plate made, in rememberence of my Dad.
Look below. Look under the "Silverados SS"





To show it in its place.. and now you can see why I've done all the things I've done.
I can finally say the Truck is done. No more, unless I have a repair, or build the next engine...





Another shot under the hood





Looking a little further inside the engine compartment, you'd see these





Some of the audio pics, custom install by my buddy Chris St. Aubin. Audio
consists of an Avic D3 head unit, infinity rear door speakers, Alpine S series components up front, a 4 channel MTX Thunder X amp for all the doors, and one Earthquake PowerHouse amp for the sub. The sub sits in a custom box made by Chris.











The truck sits on top of the GM Acessory rims I bought from a buddy, replacing the bland stockers.





All that has led to these pics, I apologize for them just being taken by my phone camera, but when I think a shot's gonna look good, I just take one.
