oh the damn cracked oil pan (they only took 50 bucks off for that grrr)





took the engine to the engine shop






went to check on it











then brought it back home

 

and before I left for israel I blew a tire









However bad news I did hit something and it shot a hole through my inner fender and dented the bedside from inside

 

Picked up some new tires







LH8 oil pan for the V8



Painted behind my grill







I'll have a few other items coming when I get back from Israel

One thing I need to fix when I get back is my exhaust

 

And this past week I bought a FAST LSXrt intake manifold, the one pictured is not mine but it is the same exact thing

 

Go on with it.. Throw a nice cam in that 5.3 and some headers.. (idk if they make them for the colorados or not) but since they offer that engine in that truck id say they do..

Should be alot of fun..

 

Sweet truck man keep up the good work!

 

Nice setup you got there, I hope you have better luck then others with the fast intake. What part of Ohio are you from?

 

truck looks good! your truck reminds me of a black one i see around my way

 

Really nice truck, like were your going with the project. Yeah, exhaust looks like typical Ohio exhaust after a few winters.

 

Nice setup I can't wait until the 5.3 finds its way under the hood. Have you tried laying a red bowtie in the center of the grill to see how it looks? Might come out pretty sweet, unless you like it debadged like that. I love the SSS wheels on your dropped Colorado, that turned out perfect. Good luck with the build, stay safe in Israel, and don't forget to keep us posted.
