I've been flying under the radar lately. I'm going to JU to finish up my degree so my priorities have been shifted around a little bit. But, I'm still trying to get the Sierra back on the road--and more importantly--back on the track!

The new motor is a 404" stroker. Diamond pistons, Eagle crank and rods, 11:1, PRC Stage III LS6 heads with Yella Terras, Patrick G spec'd cam, EWP, 90MM SSR intake w/ NW90, Marine 8.1 injectors, etc. Still gonna have the NX MAF kit on the truck as well. Probably just a 50 shot though.



I'm also on the hunt for a 9.5" 14-bolt. Gonna step down from the 4.11's to 3.73s (or maybe higher, not sure) and add an Eaton and TA Cover.

And, picked up a new set of wheels tonight as well. 20X8 and 20X9.5 Boyd Coddington Stingrays. I'm going to run the new Nitto 305/35R20 DR's out back:

The long block is pretty much together, just have to find some time between class and work to get the truck to the shop and get everything installed.

Looks good she should react well to the added cubes... You'll be glad you chose a higher gear. I should have a long time ago...

Yeah, I have zero intentions of running a 50 shot.

Pewter53: I'll be up there for the No Lip event (November 8 I think??), but without the truck unfortunately.

Everyone else: Thanks for the compliments and the well wishes. It's just been a rough year! Hopefully things will come together over the winter and I can have it at the track in Jan-Feb.

My goal is to drive to the track, bust off a 10.99, get kicked off, then drive it back home.
