Re: Best Performance Upgrades Dollar for Dollar

thunder, you need to work on not being so CHILDISH on this board. you have about 20-30 rwhp worth of mods there, plus your 4.10s which are the best upgrade you have, and probably the only reason you MIGHT be able to take a modded 5.3, but the fact remains that the 4.8 is completely and totally inferior to the 5.3!!!

i measured everything for a 4 link on my truck with stock rearend a few weeks ago and it's pretty tight...that's why i thought about a 12 bolt that already has 4 link brackets on it to make it a little easier. as for the 2 20# bottles they wont do you much good when you aren't running enough of a shot.hehehe...just diggin at ya. 300 shot or bust!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ive got a 5 link setup in the rear of my truck. I have bags but it would be very easy for you guys to copy the kit i have or even just buy the kit minus the bags and a few other things and build your with coilovers or just coil springs. Just a thought that i might throw out there.

slow- u dont have to say i MIGHT beat a modded 5.3, i am done with the smart remarks. u think i would lie about that to **** u off? com'on man. ...and the best mod ive done i think is posi.

and slow just for the record. i did beat a 5.3 mod for mod. i beat him by about 3 cars, but he was extcab. sometimes u make it seem like "driving skills" doesnt play a part. ever think of that

Re: Best Performance Upgrades Dollar for Dollar

many people prefer the eaton posi. i have the auburn and it hasnt steered me wrong yet. i think the eaton is a little more, because they say its rebuildable.

I also have the auburn and Im very happy with it. Auburns are not rebuildable, but they have a do have a trade in program for a new one if you should need.
