Just swapped the factory 3.42 gears out of my 02 regular cab and put in some 4.10s. Still need to install the rollpan and shave the tailgate (parts are here), repaint the whole truck red or sunset orange, then install calspeed LT headers, Circle-d 3600 converter, and mid 220s cam. If that doesnt run 12s, Pull the 5.3 and install an LS1 or 6.0. If that doesnt run 12s, install the nitrous kit I got and hit it with a 150 shot.

My SS is getting a makeover in the looks department. Im thinking a 5 star wheel in a 20x9 up front and a 20x12 out back with a narrowed rear differential on 315 nitto NT05s.

I plan to make some fairly big changes to my truck this year.

Going to try and lighten it up a good amount, do a fuel cell, convert to carb and e85 and hit it with some more nitrous. I want to drive my truck to the track, make a 9 second pass and drive it home.
