when is the truck expected to be out for testing? I have a project truck I will be starting and will be a twin set up also, It probably won't be completed till late in the year. So far we have 2001 truck 370 ci motor,twin 76 gts, 9" rear with ladder bars, just need to start fabbing everything up, just work load is tremendous.
Your truck looks good, heard alot about you, good luck with your project!

Jim, I have one of those same Magnaflows on my Yukon and its bairly louder than stock. They should really help hide the sound of that nasty motor at idle pretty well.
Cant wait to see the video of the first C6 victom.................... The look on his face will be worth $1,000,000. LOL

last year before i blew it up i was driving it everyday. my back up vehicle is a real POS so i am anxious to get it running again. i am hopeing to fire it up the weekend of the 4th. it is a 4 day weekend for me and i hope to have my intercooler back and my tranny back. i wont be beating on it for a few day's and then i wont really beat hard on it till i get a little more work done to it.
noribilt, your project sounds sweet. twin gts76's are a lot of turbo. i dont think i will use all of what the twin 70's have to offer. the motor probably wont hold ~1500+rwhp for long and thats with some prety good parts in there. a stock crank 370 wont take the 2000+hp the 76's could do. unless you plan up upgrading your motor later and dealing with lot of maintainance you might want to consider a little smaller turbo.
not sure what exact muffler that is. i got them from summit for about $80 each i think.

Parish, the 370 will be fully built to hold the horsepower, originally the setup started with 67mm turbos with an air -air, now 76s with a liquid to air. we will be using a FAST, build a custom intake whatever it takes to get this truck in single digits.
Just finished one project, a 67 chevy II nova 427 ci with twin 88s with 14 psi
went 7.82 and hoping to get 7.00s so far that was the 3rd pass on the car.

I can't believe these motors are making those numbers!
