I re-drill the hubs and Rotors and add ARP studs. I advise against it but people pay stupid money for this!

I guess there are two different things going on here. A 5 lug swap and modifications for a 15" wheel. I'd like to do both. The 5 lug stuff seems pretty straight forward and could be accomplished in a few different ways. The 15" wheel swap is the same, after market parts or sourcing factory stuff with some custom brackets for the rotors. Not a lot of info out there yet I'm just trying to research options.

Hello just thought I'd give an update since I haven't been on in a while!
Last time I posted I had just ordered my griptec pulley and was waiting for that to get here, shortly after that I broke my driveshaft at around 140-150mph and it broke a bunch of **** and the truck sat for 3 months lol. Driveshaft broke the trans/hurt the converter/broke the gas tank and pretty much everything else you can think of under the truck, even dented my bed/bumper a bit!



Broke as soon as I let off, definitely was a stupid thing to do but ohh well you live and you learn lol. Ordered a new 6l80 from Gm and a tank, trans showed up 2 days later and the tank took over a month! Also had a 5" driveshaft made, and while all this was getting fixed we added the new 3.5 pulley!

Guess the blower is running out of steam, only gained 1psi going from a 3.7 to a 3.5 so it's making 17psi now, made 735rwhp and 680tq


Literally just got it back and am heading to the track this weekend for Streetcar Takeover to see what it can do! Pretty pumped/scared lol

I still need to do the damn shock relocation/vikings that have been sitting in my garage forever lol, have a set of weld s77's on the way too so that's exciting!
Plans for next year are to make in the 1k hp range so I'm trying to figure out how thats going to happen!
