Was it a red RCSB with a step side bed, sitting kinda low?
Up north somewhere = Canada?

"I wish there were some precautions you could take to prevent this from happening."
I was just thinking, could you run dual nitrous solenoids inline? So if one doesn't close you still have the back up to save your motor. Sounds like cheap insurance. And if you are good with electronics you could look into a relay of some sort so that your nitrous solenoid will only open when your fuel noid has opened.

But I am really curious what you could do with a 4.8L with your turbo setup. In the name of scientific modding
it would be cool to see what what the differance between your 6.0L and a 4.8L would be and what others could expect when doing a similar kit on their trucks with the coresponding motors. Obviously a 5.3L would just be in between the 2 in power. Either way keep us updated as you always do. It's great to have people lik eyou around to push the limits of a combo and then spew all the details so others can learn from it...
