That was the red Sierra correct? That truck was nice

Seeing as this one has the 5.3 in it I doubt if I'll even do the LS3 swap after what New Era did with their 5.3.

Yeah, the red RCSB that started out as a W/T base model and ended up with a Radix and some other fun stuff... Sold it to buy the 2011 for Alaska and ended up back in Atlanta, oh well... the things you learn

Yeah with the 5.3/6spd I would toss some boost at it with the supporting mods and call it good. A mild drop and decent wheels will have a bad *** truck in no time. I kept the red truck as simple as possible and it never got old, especially sideways on service roads

Ya, the more I thought about it... I have traction problems now with my MP112 4.8 setup, this will be a TVS1900 5.3 setup that's dyno tuned plus now this one can do snow duty too so I was able to dump my Chevy Cruze as a DD.

I have the dealership installing the supercharger and dynoing it for me so I will retain my 5yr/100k mile warranty through them.
