Whether you’re after horsepower and torque, fuel economy, ride comfort or reliability, the Duramax-equipped rigs coming from Chevy are tough to beat – they hold their value much better than their competitors. New Chevrolet Silverado 2500 6.6L Midnight Edition in classic Black color proves it the best. That's why we've chosen it for our new project and this post is going to be the first one in our build thread.

We've teamed with our friends at Afe and our first video review is dedicated to their Power Package, designed for our project truck. This package includes 2 most successful and dyno-proven Afe products - Momentum Air Intake System and Scorcher Tune Module. Both of them result in additional 70 horsepower and 138 lb-ft of torque, that wasn't possible with the factory setup.

New upgrade to our Chevy Silverado project truck is already on and today we are here with the next review. We thought what can help our truck to take on any trail with confidence prior to going with a lift kit and our friends from Fox came up with a solution. Our review is dedicated to their 2.0 Performance Series Shocks and their installation on our Chevy Silverado.

Fox offers some impressive benefits with this product over typical shocks, like excellent levels of travel with improved rebound and compression while the remote reservoirs increase the oil capacity and move hot oil out of the shot for a massive reduction in fade even on the roughest terrain. Their shocks are designed as a direct replacement for stock suspension or aftermarket lifts kits and feature hassle-free bolt-on installation. When it comes to a comfortable on-road ride and predictable off-road handling in even the toughest conditions or variable temperatures, Fox shocks are the ones you can count on.

Watch Greg's new video review below. Experience yourself the incredible performance and precise control that Fox shocks deliver!
