Really? Slowfive0, clue me in on this. Either post up or if u prefer, PM me, since I live local. I would like to see this. I'd even hook u up w/ vid. That is, if u show me how to vid or if u have what it takes to make vid, I'll take care of the rest.

Yes, it is. It was really kind of ironic. The dealer (small car lot on west side of state) had joined either this forum or the silveradoss forum and asked some questions about a fueling problem. Truck was falling on its face and fuel pressure was staying low. He was talking a little smack to Magnachargers technical assistance because I guess he bought a new pump and a magnavolt trying to fix it, but it was still messing up. I posted some suggestions, but he never ended up responding any more. Well about that same time, I see this Silverado SS (Supercharged) pop up on e-bay. I ended up checking it out and buying it. Later find out through many of you guys the history on this truck and that it was the same truck that i was trying to help the guy fix!!!

The guy was cool and everything, but the truck did run like **** (under load) and he told me it ran superb Couldn't really evaluate it much since this was during a friggin blizzard. I did have a Tech 2 with me though and felt confident that it wasn't going to spill its guts or anything real major. Some new wiring for the pump and a new set of plug wires and the trucks runs great now!! I guess Karma's a bitch.

About going to the track? I'm planning on Lapeer this Saturday if so. Weather is questionable right now though. Was supposed to be Ubly, but they aren't ready yet. That would be cool if you can make it out. Are you on the east side? On any other forums like Motown?

krambo, I believe, has run into the mid 12's on a similar setup.

Let me know. I've only been to Milan & Ubly. Ubly was in my 5.0 days. Milan is where I usually go. Yes, on east side. No other forums, just PT. I live here on PT.net, trying to learn, see if I can catch Trever w/ posts.
What's the forum u mean? Isn't it Motown Muscle or something like that?

Hit me up w/ a PM. We'll go do some chit. Especially if u want to go Milan. I'm about 1/2 betw. Milan & Ubly. I've heard Lapeer sucks, maybe it is better now. There's a few from SE Mich. on here. I posted awhile ago tryin to get some PT.net boys from Michigan to Milan. It was under Regional Forums. That thread crashed & burned. I guess if I lived in Houston, CA, or anywhere in TX for that matter, a bigger group would show.
Let me know.
