Holy Macroll Batman... Thats a quick hot rod! If only we could get our SSS' to that point without sacrificing its daily usage.

Definitely not the last one in that area.
We felt it in midtown Manhattan. My office chair was moving around, and the walls were creaking. I had never felt an earthquake before. I hope it's the last one.

Good luck! If it does work out, a "How-to" would be awesome!
ok then im going to give it a shot! ordering the sensors now... then i guess see if enabling it from my tech 2 is possible, which sometimes is all you need to do (C5), but prob need a BCM flash as well. ill keep you all posted, and do a step-by-step if im successful

Another one bites the dust, cool new ride. I'm considering trading in my SSS for a new 6.2L Yukon Denali or 2011 CTS-V sedan. I'm needing more room since our 2nd kid is on its way... Hate to even think about loosing my SSS!

Very clean looking truck, I saw that some of those pics of your truck were taken by a good friend's, and fellow marine's, wife Cathy.
hope u guys like the pics...btw the hood is a 2006 silverado hood with the center piece of the nnbs silverado hood.... wanted to make the 06 hood a little bit more aggressive... hope u guys like it, enjoy.....
and of course a burnout pic lol
now this pics are from the ls1truck shootout in san antonio texas feb 2011

X2, and great looking truck!
suggestion.....cut up your credit cards, give your debit cards to someone you trust, lose your paypal accounts, and shred all your checks....because once you start modding that beautiful truck, you will go bankrupt
oh, and nice new truck btw

The wife named mine cause I spend more time with the SSS than her at times... lol She named her "La Sancha" which translates to "the other woman". Lol

X2.
welcome fellow texan

Yeah that's what I was thinking! I do agree with what other members above have said about the engine and drivetrain options of these trucks.
I am expecting the future Silverado to look a lot like this truck.

One ugly "New Working-Class Bowtie" that Surfaced in Southeast Asia. Hopefully it stay's there! Check out the Motor Trend link below...
What do you think?

Congrats!

In my opinion 160 deg stat is fine, but a 180 deg stat will do just fine. Electric fans is the way to go, I have the HPM dual fans that I picked up off this site and my temperatures dropped quite a bit. I live in West Texas where as of lately the temps are over 100 and my trucks temp stays constant at 190. The fans make a difference however, you could have air trapped in the coolant system. Do you know if it has been serviced lately? Another reason for the over heating could be a bad termostat (rarely happens) or debris in the radiator/ coolant system that can cause a blockage of flow therefore creating a higher operating temp.

Semper Fi brother! Cars look great, good luck on the modding of both!
Ok Guys,
How is everyone ? I have been a member of this website for a very, very long time and have owned 2 SS's, everyone once in a while I like to stop in and say hello and give everyone an update....My last updat eI had purchased a 2011 CTS-V Coupe in black on black and its amazing I love that car. I just purchased a another vehicle, I currently in the Marine Corps but I raced Motocross for 16 years before I joined, and I stil llike to ride whenever I can. Just last week I purchased a nearly new Ford E-350 Econoline Can with a 6.0 Power stroke....I put a set 22'' Ballistics Off Road rims with Cooper 305/40 all terrain tires.....and I am putting a massive stereo in the front and a wall with a garage in the back....here is some pics, let me know wha tyou think ! !
P.S. Unfortunatly.....with the SCT Livewire chip I have on it with the Custom Tune....it would SMOKE my SS Stock...hehe, but I still loved my SS to death ! let me know wha tu guys think, and if ANYONE has any ideas how I can put an exhaust system on this Van let me know, no one makes a kit that will fit E-Series, only F-Series, and no one around here can ben 5'' Pipe.....
Take Care,

Welcome to the site and the SSS family.

If it's 95 out you'll be sucking hot air regardless... The other negative of the Voolant Scoop is that, if you live where it rains often then you can possibly get water in your engine through it! It's not meant for water conditions or off road neither.
If you get the Volant, dont forget if its 95 out you will be sucking that hot air in through the ram air. Also the Volant is not a true concealed intake, their is an opening on the left side (faceing the passenger front wheel). My plan is to buy the ram air and connect it to the stock air box and add a conical oil free intake like the AEM. The GMPP is a true concealed intake, might want to check that one out, not sure if its an oiled filter or not though.

I do it as well as other members.
There is a guy on here who repairs clusters . i can't think of his name but i am sure some one will chime in....
-
Before you go and spend 400-600 for a new/ used cluster, Whats the problem? If its a "Dead" or "Sporadic" guage, it could be a simple guage motor replacement. You can buy a new motor on ebay and other sites for less than $10 bucks and all you need to replace it is: minimal electronics experience and soldering iron, solder, and a bit of patience...

Yep. That'll work.
You can just leave the bose sub hooked up, it shouldn't cancel out.

X2:squintnoeswerdrun:
she is coming along great thanks for sharing

Hell Yeah! Thats a Keeper!

I agree, go TRU-COOL MAX. I just recently upgraded and in West Texas Temps in the casual 100's My tranny temp doesn't go over 150. Thats a 20-30 degree drop from the stock tranny cooler.

If you read the article it states that the driver of the Bentley Azure started the whole thing...Guess who was driving...? Look at the pic, blonde female! Thats why you dont let women drive your ride!

Wow, people have different takes on customization... But at least this guy upgaded his brakes after installing ridiculously over sized rims...
