Congrats man, nice trck!!!
dirt_track_racer_81
I got this truck in June of 2005 after I hit another vehicle head on with my 1997 GMC Sierra . The madness began with a tune and true dual Flowmasters. That was good for awhile…Then I wanted more
I come across PT.net while searching for performance stuff, and the truck has just escalated into what I have now.
Everything on my truck besides the transmission and torque converter I have either built or installed myself. Since I've done all the work pretty much myself, this truck means alot more to me if i was just to go out and buy it. The truck means alot to me and I really enjoy my truck and could never sell it. Even though my girlffriend wish I would
I went through 3 cams in my 5.3, including the TR224 which helped lead to the death of that motor. Once it decided it couldn’t handle the 6800rpm rev limiter and 150shot of nitrous, me and a buddy of mine pulled the motor at 11 PM and had it sittin’ on the ground by 2 AM. The truck was now ready for the 6.0
In went the LQ4 6.0 with ported and polished LS1 heads, LS1 Intake, Nasty Performance billet fuel rails, 28# injectors, Steel Braided fuel lines, and a nice “thumpy” cam, which gets plenty of compliments when people hear it through the dual 3” exhaust.
As most of you know, I worked at Dyno Shop where I used knowledge gained from PT.net to aide in performance build-ups including, dyno tuning, suspension, gear installs, cam installations, superchargers, turbos, and nitrous kits.

My truck is daily drivin, mainly since its the only vehicle I own. Unlike a lot of truck owners, I actually use my truck as a TRUCK. It is a TRUE Street Truck. Not only is my truck very streetable, but I also use it to tow my race car to and from the track. I use it to haul things all the time, and its does show on the outside as it does have a few dents and dings.
If it wasn’t for this site with all the helpful members and sponsors, I wouldn't be were I am now. I don’t know whether to thank you all or cause bodily harm
