almost the same as the Sierra Pre-LS1 lol

2001 - 2wd - 4.8
plans for it arent much (they never are)
painted top bumper pad that i already have, painted door handles, debadging, shackles, 03+ tails, tahoe grille, painted mirror caps, and detoolboxing lol.

very nice base to start from, I like it. In addition to your current plans, hard/soft tonneau cover, clear lamps, and some stock 17" alloys. Congrats on the new truck, now get to turnin' dem wranches

haha i would hope so. stock sy/tys are fast but there not that impressive to me and why would i every put a 4.3 VEEE SIX in it when i could have a 4.8, or a 6.0 for that matter lol

Tork: ya im just gonna take the tonneau off the sierra and put it on there, i dont want one on my sierra cause im gonna get the SS spoiler for it, i also have clear corners from my old blue silvy that i forgot about

Red: although it is my DD and ill be paying for it haha (imagine that)... YES it will be Mrs. Beastmode's racetruck lol... i told her she could race it and her response was, "its gonna be so ******* slow" haha

Why would you ever go down in engine size? He probably got that thing for way cheaper than any overpriced 14 y/o typhoon/cyclone, though I still like them. I think the key word here is DD.
