Default Didn't even know my log in worked.

I've been over on the Ls1tech side, and guess I never bothered to realize that my login info worked over here as well. My truck fits in on this side a bit better, as its an LQ4 powered '66 c10 pickup.
It has a 2004 LQ4 with a TSP Tsunami cam, hardened pushrods and PRC dual springs; along with TBSS exhaust manifolds, 42 lb/hr injectors, and a built 4l80e. Its also got a 72 suspension with Wilwood Disc breaks, and we are converting the 12 bolt rear end to disc as well.





I've also partially redone the interior with procar bucket seats, brushed stainless gauge panel with all new gauges, cd/mp3 with 4 speakers stereo and more. I'm still in the process of adding the cage and harnesses, and adding a center console. Its come a looong way from what it looked like when I got it.

Thanks for looking.

Thanks guys. Haven't had it on the track yet, it didn't have seatbelts in it until 2 days ago. It dyno'd at 366/332 to the rear wheels through the 4l80e. We were considering putting a 100 shot to run it at the track but have decided to pony up the cash and look for a procharger. Longer term goals for the truck are close to 600hp, but we have a LONG way to go before thats realized.

The rear wheels are Diamond Racing beadlocks. Its hard to find a high offset "less expensive" beadlock, luckily these guys are about 8 miles from my house. I was able to cram almost 14.5" of tire in between my bedsides and stock frame rails.

Exhaust clearance around the frame is a little bit of an issue, the extra piping is not what I want to deal with; and I've had a number of turbo cars before...just tend to irritate me after a while. Boost leaks make me sad.

I have yet to do a procharger setup, so im tempted to go that direction. Unless you want to give me a turbo setup....Donated parts are always welcome
