Hey guys started off with a 99 rcsb with a stock 5.3 with some bolt ons.

Picked me up an 07 LQ4 with 70k miles on the clock for $1k.

 

When I got it it was all stock, I removed moldings and dropped it 2-4, added a billet grill, and some wheels.

 

Color matched just about everything about 1 year ago, changed and smoked tails, added roll pan, shaved tailgate, new mirrors, new wheels.

 

When i got the lq4 about 1 year ago it was all rusted up, it came from up north. I knocked all the scale off and painted the block black.

Picked up a used cam off a member here for around $200. EPS 228 / 230 6xx 6xx lift (dont rember exact lift right now) 112+4

 

Nice truck!! Sounds like a good project

 

Good looking truck! What are your plans?

 

Clean truck. Goodluck with the build

 

@ oakley , , build a pretty fast reliable 6.0, a good riding truck with the least amount of money. Would like to see around 400 rwhp NA and run 13s. May add some spray or FI at a later date.

I will post complete list of what I spent when the motor goes in. Should be 1 month or less.

 

Well I got my stock 317s cleaned up. Not sure if I'm going to use them or try to pick up some 799/243s. What do u guys think??

 

For cost effectiveness just port and polish them the best you can your self and have Them milled down for higher cr.
