Default 2000 bagged,bodied and turbo build.

i know bagged trucks arent most of you guys thing, but i thought i would put this thread together to keep my build thread updated for you guys.

somewhat of a timeline: truck started out 2/4 drop with a stock 5.3 and vortec blower. i then took it took vicalma to have it bagged and soon after bodied. after i got it back from being bodied i started on the 6.0 swap and turbo. being a fan of harness tucks and clean engine bays, i proceeded to relocate the pcm and fuse box inside the cab. with all the inspiration from you guys and this site, im getting close to having this thing back together so heres a little run down on the project.and as always, questions and comments are welcome.

2000 chebby rcsb:
lq9 swap - basically stock with fresh rebuild and small cam and springs.
bagged and bodydropped by Vicalma.
KBracing Turbo Kit-Magnum 76mm with a one off set of hot pipes(thanks Kyle )
still to come, 4l80e and 22s!

this truck is so sick. bagged trucks is what i prefer. only reason my truck isnt dropped and bagged is because i have a 4x4 z71 and dont feel like spending the money to turn it into a 2wheel drive.
