Has anybody bought any replacement stripes for their trucks lately? I am in need of some new ones badly and didn't know if I could find them anywhere? I also heard somewhere that the stripes are the same as some old Chevelle musclecar?

good to know about the stripes.

red---the exhaust sounds great!

and sorry but i cant remember the name but i have 305/50/R20s (only on the rear) on my truck and love the way she rides and performs. And they just look sick!


dont mind the height in the back, between the slant and the fact i have 40 psi in my rear bags its way high. I put the ride height bags on for pulling my car.


this is the way it looks with the trailer attached and when i lower the psi to the minimum.(10 psi).

Can somebody do me a favor and measure their stripe on the rear spoiler? I just need to know how wide it is and the spacing between the stripes on the spoiler.

Hey guys, another question for ya'll... ik some of u guys swapped out ur 4.8L for a 6.0L. I was wondering whats the best way in going about finding the right 6.0L. does it have to be a specific year? or would it be better in finding a newer corvette engine to pop in there?


Just try'n to get the most umph for a buck if ya know what i mean...

Here's how I got more umph out of my 4.8L. Got it installed, then deployed. I'll get some dyno numbers when I get home. Hoping for 450-500HP. Supporting mods in sig.

you want 03+ and make sure it has 317 heads for lq4/lq9 and if it has 243 heads your looking at a ls2. beyond that im not sure. oh, and it will have 6.0L casted in the back side of the block.

foose - that looks like a sweet snail there.
