Default Hey there Delilah

well my truck has been having a bit of a facelift, we call her Delilah, story if my life, procharged the stock lm7 motor about a year ago headers and all the pretty mod's were done, blew the motor up about 500 miles after the procharger was on completely my fault don't wanna talk about it. but since then i took the whole drivetrain out within 1 1/2 days and left for overseas stuff, gathered a whole room filled with brown boxes with expensive parts in them. And now its all coming together.

heres the low down on the current build.

-L33 motor
head studs
ls9 gaskets
tu0 cam

-4l80 trans semi built
circle D 3200 multidisk
5'' aluminum driveshaft (Bought from Chevrolade on here which actually didn't need to be cut while im thinking about it).

stock rear end for now
wanna do something else as soon as the truck is running good and right

and the little power maker
pt7675 cea such a good looking piece wish i could say it works awesome also but hasnt been started yet.

kb racing Log manifold
exhaust will be 3.5'' with cutout right by the tran, into a magnaflow 4'' muffler out the back.

fuel is a pump built by Lonnies performance, which i want to recommend to Anyone, he did awesome work and great for the price of everything.
-8 feed
-6 return
Gonna run E85 for fuel hoping to grow some veggies in the tank.

thats the main details on the truck now

Awesome!! Cool looking build!!!!

I'm interested also as i just picked up an L33 myself for a spare powerplant.

Your truck is gonna be insane! How much boost do you plan on running?

And how big is the pump you got from Lonnie? He is awesome to deal with!!

yea im hoping the motor performs well. i plan on running low boost around 15-17 and wanna max somewhere between 20-22 right now. I got the dual pump that will handle up to 1000+ but im running E85 so i think it will be about perfect.

Update: I suck at this whole build thread stuff but the truck is basically done now other than tune and intercooler piping which im gonna have done by the guy tuning it so he can just weld it all together instead of using couplers and having those pop off everyday. i also need to change a rear diff seal i didn't think of it when i put the new pinion yoke on for the driveshaft. oh well i'd rather catch it now than on the road.

the start of the exhaust 3 1/2'' down pipe
