Default Figured I should start this.

Silverado WT buildish. Truck is 07 classic I picked it up new in Oct 2006 basic v6 truck roll up windows and all. I did the basic stuff exhaust and intake but always planned for a v8. I had a few motors SBC 305. And a few LS motors 4.8, and 2 408. I had to sell all that to get ahead of bills and stuff. I finally got the chance to get my truck going in July 2013. I picked up a 04 LQ4 and 3600 stall. TSP 1 7/8 fbody headers and other things.

The Swap was completed about a month after I started. Ran great. I gave Pat G a call and got hooked up with him for tuning and he has been doing a killer job. Needles to say it took about 350 miles before the new found power took its toll and killed the 4l60e. So here's the new setup Built TH400 with trans brake and Full reverse manual valve body. That is currently at the shop while the truck is going back into the garage and under the knife[IMG][/IMG]
