You have to pull both bucket seats to get the jump seat out.

Yeah, I'm pretty pumped! Damn sure won't help my 60' times any but I should easily trap 105. Until I can get traction aids I'll probably lock 1st and 2nd out, hit it at the bottom of 3rd...maybe just lock out first and hit it at >3000 in 2nd/3rd

hey guys... so your never going to guess what the dealership told me was wrong with the truck. Never in my wildest dreams would i think this would happen..............

APPARENTLY, my yoke on the driveshaft grabbed ahold of the bushing in my transmission case and pulled it out and it was just flopping around in there. Not even bull ****'n ya... Here's the kicker, the part they ordered was wrong and told me that if they orded it through GM that they would have to buy a whole new transmission case to get the bushing in it but they sized it out first and called around to find something as close as they can to it before they take that route... Even IF that bushing is replaced i could still possibly have a bent driveshaft they said. If they cant fix it, im going to tell them its time for a T-56 swap. (kinda needed a reason to do it, so in a way im happy )


Anyways... If anyone has a T-56 for sale or knows someone who has one they are looking to get rid of, or knows a company that sells them with maybe even a driveshaft kit as well. Send'em my way!!!!!!!!!

That's crazy Silver!

Got my 14's today N/A and started from scratch with PE and stock timing tables. Just to save you guys that tune your own some time, mine likes 12.4 and I quit messing with timing at +7* to stock with no KR...she might like more.

At wot you should be running in the range of 22°-26°, all of the other ranges are set as high as possible without any knock retard.
