You do seem to have away with making these trucks run well parish8.., loved what you did with your 6.0 Whippled 2500... I was paralleling your set up then on my 5.3 Heavy weight Avalanche.... I got brave like you and pushed the boost up to 11 lbs., added an Nx Nitrous kit and went from a 35 shot all the why up to a 100 shot.., and with a bunch of other Mods was able to squeeze out a 12.9..., with my yank converter going away on that run......

After seeing what you where able to do with the Whippled 6.0.., ive finished up building a stroked 6.0 (408 cu.) with all the good internals for Boost.., and probably some Juice to since it works so well with the Whipple.., working on the drive train for it now, including a custom ford 9 inch rear.. Hoping it will at least get me to that 11.9 that you managed with the 2500., that was impressive!

So I hope you go back to that combo in your new truck...., because I can just imagine what it could do.., if you can get it to Hook Up.., might be Awsome!

Butch.

I think the 4.8 like nitrous beter then the larger motors..?. A little 60HP dry shot pushed my mostly stock 4.8 to a 14.3. I plan on putting it well into the 13's with more.....

k, heres the vids, while they last.

small >> http://www.neufamily.org/03silverado...10-24small.mpg
large >> http://www.neufamily.org/03silverado...10-24large.wmv

this is a NX wet kit, got a window switch and WOT switch but have the window switch disabled for now so the nitrous turns on right out of the hole. there is a race against an ~01 camaro and a ~02gt and some kind of s10 on there too. i am down to about 3gig of band width for the month and will probably use that up in the next day or 2 so the links wont last long.
