Hi everyone,

I have an '01 2500HD LQ4 6.0 with Gen IV rods, a Trick Flow Specialties TrackMax cam, p/n 30602003(.585/.585, 228/230,112 LSA, basically a Sloppy Stage II cam) with BTR 660 springs and retainers, hardened stock length pushrods, stock 243 heads, 41lb/hr injectors, NNBS/TBSS intake and a G-Plus 92mm throttle body, tuned on the stock ECU making 339rwhp on premium. I've run 15.0 @ 94, future plans include a set of 823 rec port heads (already have), an L8T crank (already have) and connecting rods, an LSA blower (already have) with CTS-V lid and boring the block out 0.030" with forged pistons. The goal is to see what 7-8 pounds of boost will do with 394ci. I realize I'll have to upgrade my fuel system along with a transgo stage 2 kit for the 4L80E. The rear differential has a TrueTrac helical limited slip differential in it, so I am comfortable that it will hold the power. The goal is sleeper. I still need to be able to tow up to 12k with it, or throw a ton of weight in the bed and still get up and go. I have a separate block to build while I'm keeping the truck running. Looking forward to seeing what other people are doing and learning!

 

Welcome man!

I was lurking for a long time myself, and finally made an account.

I'm down in the Portland area, so nice to see another pac-west guy!

Can't wait to see pictures of your truck man

 

Thanks for the reply, I've started documenting my build under the thread "L8T to the game", if you want to check it out. I'll have build photos there, and I'll edit my original post to include photos of my truck by the end of the weekend!

 

Welcome!

I see Im a little late, but I am in Gig Harbor WA.
