Crazy forum user since mid 90's though LOL.

Anyway - made my way here searching for a little more for my Daily Driver and tow rig.

Have a build thread on SilveradoSierra and have quite a bit of wrench time on many different cars so not a newb, but as that aspect, I like to do hella research before i put the wrench time in the rig. Here is a basis of what I have done now.


What is it: 2007 Silverado LT Crew Cab Short Box 4.8 with the Bench seat in front

What's done:

Outside/Suspension
Pro-Comp 6 Inch lift + Bilstein 5100's to 1.2 =~7.2"
Rear is Spacer, AAL, and soon Shackles
MB 20x10 Rims
325/60/20 Nitto Terra Grapplers - 35.6 inches tall
Tint
VentVisors
Rhino Lining over the rail
Fender Flares with the Fake Bolts - never been a fan but Really like them on this Truck
Recently Debadged

Engine:
AFe Intake
Dual Exhaust with 18 Inch Magnaflow
Fitch Fuel Catalyst
More to come

Interior
DIC install
JVC Dual Din Headunit - BT and HD Radio

Other things done fairly recently:
Husky Liners - Black
10" under rear seat Box
Pioneer 10"
Planet Audio 75.2 Amp - will be running Bridged on the 10"
Sound Ordinance Component 6.5 for Front
Sound Ordinance 2 way 6.5 for the rear
Predator Trinity Tuner
Uniden CB and Wilson antenna

To Do List: No particular Order
Re-Gear currently 3.42's - Looking at 4.56's or 4.88's
Want a Cap for the Rear as I have big dog and I don't like him up front with me, he has jumped out a few times of the bed and I do alot of surfing, so would be nice to keep the board i nthe back without worrying about it.
Longtubes and Y - Probably just Pacesetter but had issues with Welds on a set of pacesetters WAY back in the early 90's so we'll see if they get my business again.
Neoprene Seat Covers - Front and Rear - Before Spring as i'm a surfer and will need these
TVS Blower hopefully 1.9 but going to buy it used
6.0 Heads
Custom Grind Cam
Custom Tune once most is done - Hence the Predator Trinity over all other tuners...

As she sits right now as well - yes since the debadge I have not cut the paint nore have I claybared or waxed so looks like crap right now wiht Ghost letters everywhere.

 

Welcome to the site, nice looking truck.

 

i think you already have as good or better heads than the 6.0 so that would be a waste of money.

 

Hey there...buddy welcome to the forum..you really have an awesome truck over there...looks an absolute stunner in that bright red color..thanks for sharing such amazing pics..the one with the beer bottle was just superb.

 

Thanks guys - as for the 6.0 heads and the 4.8 heads I'm not sure - guess I will look further into it. Heads and Cams are a reseaarch more and then maybe do it decision. Gears, Headers, Y-pipe will be first and Honestly - after those things are done I may not need to mess with heads, just the TVS or Whipple may do me good as this truck has a TON up top for me, but down low needs just a bit more, it is the tow rig you know

I am considering cleaning out all the other vehilcles and just modding/fixing up the truck for a few years as I want to use my current house as a rental and get a bigger house and boat, then maybe look for a classic to start rebuilding I think the truck and the tinkering on it can keep me happy enough
