Nah, I have plans for my current setup already....

 

That is going to be nuts! Curb weight has to be under 3,000! 9's here you come

Back to your Colorado thread...

 

Ooops, wrong pic. It will be going into this, when the time comes.



I'm trying to decide if I wanna go crazy on my Silverado, or return it to stock & build something smaller/lighter. While my truck is(and has been) paid for, a "fresh start" would be nice.

 

I'm finding it hard to believe that NOBODY is modding these 5.3 Colorado/Canyons....

 

alot of the modded colys and canyons are not factory 5.3s.. they are the guys that do v8 conversion..

 

Also 6.0 conversion...

 

I understand what both of you are saying. Maybe I should ask about modding V8 Colorado/Canyon trucks? I just wasn't interested in reading posts about modded 5 cylinder trucks.

Knowing me, IF I even get one, it would start life as a 5.3 truck, and get modded from that platform.

Oh, and thanks for the BUMP!!

 

I've thought the same thing myself, and I figured that they'd sell a lot more of them than I believe GM has...maybe a combination of styling and a poor economy?

 

To be honest the damn things are way too expensive for what you get. A cc 4wd 5.3 has a sticker of well over 30k which I find hard to swallow when you can get a full size truck in the same configuration for only a couple grand more.

 

I've tried to figure out which front differential these things have. Seems that the rear is using the 8.6" 10 bolt, but I don't know the axle spline count. I'd bet it's different than the Silverado.
