Bill, FWIW, I had ceramic coated my LT system. Only mistake I made was wasting money to coat Dynatech cats. I wanted to see how it'd last on cats. Used the ceramic coating not the higher temp.rated stuff on cats, so it flaked on 1 cat, looks ok on other. Didn't want use since it's colored black I think. 1 of nice things about coating: Cool to touch in ~20 min. or less, keeps heat outta engine bay & looks ok after DD use & Mich. road salt.

lol thanks buddy, we gotta get a project thread for all your projects
Finished the exhaust last night, I am very pleased with the way it sounds and I especially love how quiet it is at idle... of course thats with a bone stock 4.8 in it
Ya mine arent to bad, they are just starting to pit a little and id like to catch it before its too late... with the way things are going money wise right now and still needing a couple more little things I think I am gonna unfortunately have to put off coating them for a little while though (which is ok cause they are already coated, just starting to rust a little).

Well with all the time ive been spending on working on all the other things for the truck I havent had to clean it up really since I bought it lol... well I finally made some time (I guess its clean lol). It is still a BIG work in progress, I got alot of stuff to colormatch and still a little debadging and destriping. Figures about 2 hours after I took these pics I decided I was gonna put my lowering shackles on... so it actually now sits about 2" lowering in the back, I will also remove the overload spring when I get a chance and that will be about it suspension wise.....
I also have a chrome Tahoe grille coming in in the next couple days and a set of cheapo used 17" tires I bought just so I can make it through the summer on my new 17s
