Default New fella here

Name is James im in the air force and like it. I have an 02 Z28 35TH with a 6.0 in the works. I used to drive a 3500 chevy for a DD but had an issue with it and long story short father in law took it over and i have an 02 Tahoe LT autoride. After my next deployment i will be getting 2 more diesels but keeping the tahoe as a DD.

Thank you sir, even though this truck is gonna be the DD im gonna mess with it cause im cursed .

I was wondering what good mods are out there for these tahoes(im familiar with alot of em as far as aftermarket somewhat), but mainly mods that will make it have a little more ***** and get some good power but still be able to tow well and not kill anything(in case i need it).

Right i already knew most of it cause of dealings with the camaro. This truck is gonna stay a DD even after i get my others and i was just curious what kind of mods aside from exhaust intake tuning and stuff like that.

Heads and cam wise what would still be good for the factory tow rating and not kill anything but give me some extra around town grunt. Going from my dmax to this truck for now gives me a big disatisfaction of low end grunt(expected goin from a tuned diesel to a gasser thats stock) hell i was walkin bolt on mustangs(not a big feat but with a 7600 lb truck its pretty good).

Id like to do that with this truck just for ***** and grins but still get good highway and decent city milage and be able to tow like factory. Im not too worried about getting extream milage cause this wont be my long haul truck thats what the diesels will be for when i get back from deployment. Spose i sould have been more clear lol and thanks for the welcomes.
