93 GMC jimmy 5.3l twin turbo awd E85
As the title states, 1993 GMC Jimmy with a 2005 5.3L truck motor with twin turbos. Built the truck a couple years ago and had my fun with it, just have some bigger projects going on and need to cash this one out.
Motor: Mileage unknown, looked fresh when I opened it up. head studs, valve springs, 706 head castings and new ls9 cam. 80 pound seimens injectors and two walbro 255l inline fuel pumps run parallel for the E85 fuel support.
Turbos: rebuilt Holset H1C's, Headers are made from a mild steel header kit and are tig welded, 3" down pipes that merge into 4" exhaust that runs out behind the rear passenger tire, waste gates came off ebay dont really know the brand
Trans: th350, alto red clutches and kolene steels. shift kit, hardened outer intermediate race with new sprag, tsi converter.
Rear end: GM 8.5" with 308 gears gov lock and disk brakes.
Front diff: GM 308 gear set and axle from a 1993 AWD astro safari
Transfer case: AWD case from astro safari, dont remember the #'s on the tag.
Other: This was pretty much a frame off restoration, the frame was completely disassembled sand blasted then painted with industrial paint and reassembled with new prothane (urethane) bushings, all ball joints and steering components are new also. I guess I should say new two years ago, I probably have less than 2500 miles on the truck since the rebuild. Has 4 wheel disk brakes and the hydro boost braking and power steering system, It works awesome. All the air conditioning components are there, i never charged it to know if it works, it WAS something I was going to work on as I had time. The interior was completely taken out and cleaned there is wear on the drivers seat, I just didnt get around to having it fixed, theres other small cosmetic issues just from its age, but everything is clean. Body itself has fresh paint but its NOT perfect and has some small scratches and chips, but you would have to look for them, there not too obvious. I put this project together with the intention of driving it, its not a show truck but it is a nice truck, had lots of fun with it and makes decent power. Asking $12,000 or best offer, I really dont know were to start with the price, would consider partial trade for lsx block but just more interested in cash. John 920-427-9352

Thanks 1cam, I had the 2WD/4WD transfer case along with the front alxe to match it but from what I'v read it was supposed to be the week link in the set up, A 4l80e would be a upgrade also but I'll leave that for the next owner. I really dont know were to start with price so any reasonable cash offers are welcome, its going to Jefferson co. swap meet in Wisconsin for the weekend if anybody knows what/were that is it can be seen in the car corral.

Not sure on the power yet, For piece of mind the truck is scheduled for a 4wd chassis dyno next week for a load bearing tune and a final street tune/test. I will post #'s asap, HP #'s seem to be every ones question.
