so im gonna have this 3200 circle d stall put in, and i have 3.73s and i will eventually get some longtubes, and im wondering what would be the best cam i can get that isnt crazy expensive and can give me some serious gains as well as be a head turner when someone hears me roll up. and this will also be with a 5.3 that only has cai and shorties at the moment and gutted cats.

and as far as my bone stock, well as bone stock as an rst is with a aftermarket street tune, i ran at my best time a 9.74X at the strip, obviously a 1/8 mile. my buddies tbss beat me by .01 on our best times. of course i have 3.73 and he has 4.10 gears. mine also would not hook off the line to save my life. so i see a cam, have the stall, a trutrac, traction bars, and nitrous in the future. gonna take a good minute to get er there but thats the fun part right? lol anyways just wanted to share that little bit.

on another note im doing some custom interior work to my truck dyeing my interior accents. should turn out real nice after the clear gets applied. ill post pics when i get it right.

So my window switch went out, and I need help getting the door panel off. I'm afraid of breaking it. Is there an easy way to take it off..?

I got it! Broke some clips on the outer leather piece, but I got it all apart and it looks normal. Just vel-crowed the leather piece back on to make it easier in the future.
But I couldn't find a way to do it without breaking some of the clips. It's rather difficult lol.

Try cleaning you mass airflow sensor. Check your manifold air pressure sensor. Spray starting fluid around the base if the throttle body and intake runners, if it changes the way the truck runs, you have a leak. Buy a gauge and check fuel pressure. Take the truck to auto zone and have them put a scanner on it.
