That said, I got her droped right away and wrapped my 04 Tahoe's 17's on some Nitto's.

Well, as we all know it didn't stop there eventhough sometimes I wish it had. 1st time out to the track that same summer it ran 15.0's only on the flowmasters and 3.42's, so there's where the urge for more power started kicking in. Went thru several exhaust setups, 3 transmissions, several sets of tires and lots of trips to the local track. Truck finally wound up running 12.9's N/A with TR220/220 114, 918s, 7.4" hardened pushrods, K&N FIPK, E-Fans, 160 t-stat, MSD wires, ASP Crank Pulley, Pacesetter LT's, Full Single 3" Exhaust W/Borla and 3.5" E-Cutout, Fully Built 60E, 3k Vig T/C, 4.10's with Eaton Posi. Basically all the boltons and cam...

While getting the truck to run faster, the interior also got some goodies. Little stuff such as sound system, two tone leather seats and a center console that came in handy to store the 10lbs bottle for the F1 TNT Nitrous Kit; Which wound up taking her to run 11.8's N/A with lots of traction issues.

Despite the odometer reading 131k and the truck still running pretty strong I wanted more. I wanted a new setup on a fresher engine, preferably an LQ9 which only meant more $$$ out the door. My wife would tell me to just buy me a Vette and be done with, but I am not a car guy. Plus, if I got a car and sold the truck I wouldn't be able to haul my other toy

Finally, I got my hands on a friend's LQ9 with 32k from his totalled 05 SS. Out went the 5.3 and in with the 6.0 and supporting mods....We alll know there's never an end to this....plus the 5.3 could go out any minute, or so I told the wife........
With this setup, my truck ran 12.0 @ 111mph w/1.63 60' N/A.

As you can see a few more mods/changes here and there have made their way into the truck; Ported Fast 92/92, Caltracks, dropped it some more and added NNBs 20's along with other things such as full hd front and custom painted ghost stripes.

[B]How it sits as of now........for now
As far as track times, haven't ran it much lately. It's ran 11.51 @ 120mph on 100 shot running on front 20's and 28x10x16 Hoosiers on rear, full weight. After all, it's still my daily driver.
