that White truck's got too much body roll for my liking. I bet it's stock to.

I'd like to see more stuff as well.

We fully intend to give the trucks the coverage they have been lacking. If you have specific ideas for tech articles you would like to see please list them and I will see what I can do to cover them.

Yes, the white truck has a 5.3, and its a regular cab short bed........gonna have to pick up April's issue for more info.

I sent in my subscription 2 days ago and picked up the recent issue as well.
I really liked the Radix/6.0 article, however it lacked many specs.

I would like to see a more comprehensive Radix truck build up to include suspension, transmission, rearend & brakes, & evaluations of the before & after effects. 60ft, 0-60, 0-100, 0-100-0, 1/8th mile, 1/4 mile, top speed.

did I say more detail?

I can tell you I packed so much detail into the truck article it made my head hurt when I was done. They actually had to shrink the pictures down to allow me room for all the info I was trying to get in.

Glad to hear you signed up, I think you will like the direction GMHTP is goin.

I.E. Cam specs? or a close alternative if they are secret

There was alot of detail, thank you, however, actual specs were low, can you run concurrent data on your website for more detail and make a web address note in the Manufacturers consulted section at the end of the article for further information on said specified article.

I realize that is not the norm, but for those of us that are looking for a tried and true combo, this would help out immensely.

You have a good idea regarding the additional tech info. It can be tough to balance all the info you would like to include with the space constraints. For instance I would have loved to included my alignment specs but I just ran out of room. I will add some additional info to my web page within the next week or so.

Thanks for the suggestion.
