I just bought one of these from Ebay a few weeks ago brand new never installed for $4000. The bypass valve was broken and it did not come with the belt or the "colder heat range spark plugs" but did include the additional GM parts that needed to be purchased seperately. Anyone know which plugs I'm supposed to use? It is getting installed on a 2008 5.3 non-flex fuel Silverado.

thank you! yes its 2wd. somewhat pointless on street tires at anything under 50mph lol. id have to look at time slips for 1/8 et and i dont feel like going outside right now haha. i know it traps 90-90.5 in the 1/8th. it is a lot of fun but still really well mannered. i let my mom bring my little cousin to school in it. his friends can hear her pull up out front. hahaha ill let her be the cool one dropping the kids off

Well I guess now you need to start a for sale thread. So what do you do on that setup if you want to change pulley sizes?

im not gonna sell it until i have most/all of the stuff for the new setup. i dont want to have the truck down since i wont be able to work on it much now anyway. wellllll the pulley thats on there is about as small as you can go. no reason to put a bigger one on haha. could always put the stock on, and well if you wanted a 3.0 or so you could get this one copied. this pulley is 17-4 ph hardned stainless. its overkill, it doesnt need to be, it could be aluminum if beefed up a little bit. i just dont have the time at work to make another one even if someone wanted it...

Do you still have the programming you used for the pulley if someone wanted to have another made by someone else?
