Not a chance numb nuts, bread trucks have big blocks in them, they sound good.

Yea but had a little glitch with the tune download on the truck. Might fool with it today if I don't go fishin. I still have to yank all the accys and fix that bypass hose leak and maybe clean and paint those brackets while I'm there. Ac condenser didn't get here either, not too mention i still have to rig up some kind of exhaust so I can drive it around.

Got the exhaust on yesterday, I know I'm biased, but I think this is the best I have heard any V10 sound. It was recorded from a digital camera but turned out good enough to get a good idea how it sounds. It has a much deeper and less buzzy tone then every other V10 I have heard. the trans has a few gremlins that hopefully the shop who rebuilt it can figure out this week and the SCT tune needs a little work. From the little bit i drove it though, it sure does feel strong. With traction this big heavy beotch should be a beast.

Yea I was still worried though, I have heard some real crappy V10's out there. I'm sort of limited who I can go to in this town for exhaust since they all think everyone is a millionaire. So of course this guy who has done all my exhaust sytems in the past needs to go back over and fix a few leaks (which drive me insane) like he has every other vehicle I have taken to him lol not too mention the twin exhaust tips are misaligned and they resemble the lil inbred banjo pickin kid in deliverence eyes
