Well with the 0% financing going on on GM now it was too hard to turn it down. We test drove the truck <img border="0" alt="[driving]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_driving3.gif" /> and brought it to the shop to dyno it..hey didn't want a dud yunno? , seen our payment <img border="0" title="" alt="[Eek!]" src="gr_eek2.gif" /> and couldn't turn it down.

Ended up getting the 03 Reg Cab 5.3 auto with locking diff, 3.42's(couldn't locate the same truck with 3.73's dammit), steering controls, CD/cassette and soft ride suspension...at last but not least..the dealer had added some 20's <img border="0" alt="[pimp]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_pimp.gif" /> They really make the truck!

So on the dyno pulls we had another 03 truck with a 5.3 auto pulled 239rwhp and the new truck with 90 miles we got does 245rwhp <img border="0" alt="[chug]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_chug.gif" /> No arguements there.

Here's a couple of shots on the RMS dyno.

Might be able to get it to the track tonight to get some stock times...not modding it for a little bit is going to be a tough chore. <img border="0" alt="[evil]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_devil.gif" />

Anyone have any good suggestions for cold air intake systems? <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" />

Welp, no track tonight. Just rained. Maybe Friday. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Frown]" src="gr_sad.gif" />

 

Congrats on your new truck! Nice color, Dark Grey Metallic. I just picked my 2003 2500HD / Dark Grey Metallic up on Monday night. I Love it! Like you said, o% for 5 years, hard to turn down!!!!

Best of Luck with your new toy!

 

hey man, sweet ride...those 20s set it off. as far as an intake i would go with a UPD...it's what i have, and lots of others on here have as well. they have several options as far as color. to hell with not modding it for a while though...mod the **** out of it....that's the only way to go. CONGRATS! this 0-60 think is kinda making me want to trade mine in and get a new one....

Yeah Mike the Dark Grey Met. kicks ***! Almost has a green tint to it sometimes and look good at night.

It's supposed to be the tow rig for the formula...but if it turns out anything like the formula is then the Silverado may be a little track project itself. <img border="0" alt="[burn out]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_burnout.gif" />

I'd like to see a 14.9 out of it stock. We'll see.

 

SWEET RIDE MARK!!!!!! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />

 

<img border="0" alt="[worship]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_hail.gif" /> 245 rwhp stock! my 01 did 248 with hpp3 upd intake and a flowmaster on 20s! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Frown]" src="gr_sad.gif" />
