Default F8L INTENT! (Video for the STS Z71)

First off I wanted to thank all of you for all the help and inspiration you've given me over the last couple years. You are a great group of people and without your ideas and constant smack talk I never would have accomplished this much. It's been a hell of a ride!!!

This video signals the end of STS Z71s hardcore racing days and the torch will now be passed to my lil RCSB. The Z71 will now be the bracket/daily driver truck with the goal of 13s N/A.

Enjoy!!

F8L INTENT

If anyone wants to copy the full size version to their computer simply send me an email and I'll like you to my storage site. I am low on bandwidth so I posted the vid on the other server which makes it tiny. F8L@COMCAST.NET

Why on this websites server does the first few seconds always work then I still hear adio but the evrey once in a while a pic will show up but for the most part it will stay stuck on one frame of the vid? I would really like to see it but all i get to see is a couple of secs and the music.

The truck in the tunnel is awesome makes me want to put an sts on my truck but I just dont think the 165,000 mile 5.3 could handle it.

Thanks guys

On emissions. I never tried to pass them. My truck isn't due for smog till maybe next year. STS is just now getting is CARB approval so I would have been screwed. Now it will be fine since I can keep my stock manifolds, exhaust and turbos don't need big smog unfriendly cams.

I'll get a new tunnel video with the grey truck once the turbo is on it. It will be much cooler. Trust me

Why not? Mine has 150k plus and it handles the boost just fine. The ls1 engines are incredible.
