hi, I'm shane. I came across the facebook group and figured why not join the real thing.My main money pit is an 86 squarebody shortbed. just started on a boosted lq4 swap on her. Hoping to find some helpful info on here. My daily is a 08 z71. trying to leave it fairly stock.(key word "trying")

I paint cars for a living, from north florida

Welcome to the forum! That c10 should be fun when it's all said and done! You should start a thread on it. I have a 95 c1500 ecsb that I am swapping a 5.3 and Whipple into. Hopefully I can finish that up sometime this year or next. Seems like there's always something else more important.

I haven't thought about that. I might put one together later on when some progress actually happens, just yanked out the 350 and brought home the 6.0 last weekend.lol. I also have a 12 bolt sitting in the garage ready to be built. disc brakes and all. id like to get a better laptop so I can keep everything a lot more organized and get back into the forum groove. this one struggles.

Welcome from another Panama City member. I actually live on the beach but work in town. The C10 should be a lot of fun. What form of forced induction were you thinking once the swap is completed?

Single turbo, at first I was looking at pro chargers but after some research I think a big single would be better and a hell of a lot cheaper.

We should get a NWFL cruise thing going in May, when I'll be in the area, or something if we can find a few people. Or maybe meet up at the strip that just opened again in Holt, Emerald coast dragway.
