This site has cost me a nice chunk of change!

5.3L engine
4L-crappy-E trans (x's 2)
3K stall TC
headers (that would not fit)
e-fans
cam (x's 2)
springs
p-rods
intake/exhaust hardware
pcm (x's 2)
HPTuners

Total Cost = $$$$

Look on a ricer's face when the C10 goes sideways from a dig, and still pulls 5 lengths before reaching 100mph...

...f'n PRICELESS!

Yeah, screw you bastards!

I ordered my Radix with 300 miles on mine and that was all I was going to do to it since I was tired of not having a reliable DD. Then I found this site doing a search on Radix info. 1.5 years later it has ran for a total of 6 months, 17k miles, 3rd engine, 3rd tranny, and guess what.....It still isn't running and i'm driving old reliable that I was tired of working on 1.5 years ago. Talk about irony.

Yeah I remember asking what were the best settings for my HPP3!

I think this site has cost me 11-12k in the year I've been here.

I actually have an Excel spreadsheet that I keep track of cost with. A quick check shows I'm at $30,469.16 + the cost of the Tahoe. I dont count little things like fluids or shop fees, thats just F-in parts! I hate this site!
