  1. I put the FMU in today and it's really no different. I guess I gotta wait for the Walbro.
  2. Congrats, I got the same one. Can't beat the price either and here in FL it's kinda small enough for conceal carry. My first gun and like it so far. Got the wife one too. Yes, old post, but I haven't been around in a while.
  3. Hey what's up people. I sold this to my step-son a while back and recently reacquired it. I just replaced the fuel pump so it doesn't slosh the fuel out of the pump suction. The pump pressure goes to 40 lbs by 5 psi boost (16.0 AFR). I still have the 42# injectors, but I don't have the FMU on it. I took the FMU off (when I previously owned the truck) since I did the in-tank Walbro 255 lph. Was that a mistake? The pressure was fine according to the gauge back then and the AFRs were good. I recently found a site with a fuel pump assembly with a Walbro 255 lph. It's on the way. I know I'm all over the place here and sorry for that, but I'm trying to get her dialed in again. I maxed out fuel feed (yes still with a Preditor, lol) in the 4k - 4.8k and 4.8k to shift (+20% for both ranges). It did help, but WOT AFRs are too lean still. Could the FMU solve everything (even b4 swapping the pump) possibly or should I reinstall the FMU even after I put the 255 pump in? I guess I could put the FMU on tomorrow and c what happens. Thanks again for the help. I missed this community! I put this in the first post... newb Oh and I got an 05 GTO and put in a TVS1900. Love it! That is Black Bear tuned and so will the SSS when I'm close to having the fuel sorted...
  4. Excellent info, thanks for the link and I agree. I just wasn't sure if a 1500 spring was a 1500 spring. Is thast the case then? Seems I just need to measure and match them up. This makes it seem as if our springs are no different than any ext cab 1500? Maybe the shackles are different and that's how the ride height differs... and the shocks make the ride different. This post can go away... up to moderators.
  5. Mine were overloaded at some point while I didn't own it, lol. Anyone know if the SS springs are different than any 1500? I prefer stock ride height. If you have them, please include price shipped to 32606. Thanks
  6. ^^^Me neither, but do you have the leaf springs? Both rears. Mine appear to have been way overloaded. Oh and a shipped to 32606 zip please. Thanks
  7. Fox Sports 1 sux and since I moved from NY to FL, no Velocity channel. Oh, and Dish Network sux too!
  8. One step closer to 8 rib. Power steering pulley done.

  9. 2 BellTech 2215FF Street Performance Shocks 2 BellTech 310400 Street Performance Shocks So this ^^^ for $225.00 shipped? My rears are bottoming out lately and I'd rather just do all 4 as a matched set. If so, I'm in. Thanks
  10. Just rebuilt the Powerdyne, so I'm glad to be driving the SSS again. However, I have a 2000 RCSB 5.3 step side silverado with 203k miles. I put in a GM LQ9 cam and LS6(?) valve springs. Rebuilt the G-80 (waste of time). It's still a fun truck. I also have an '07 Subaru Impreza STi Limited (315 of 800). Really is a fun car but I'd sell it in a heartbeat now that I have my SSS back. ... and the wife has an '04 Pacifica with right around 190k miles. I constantly give her crap for it, but it really is a great runner. The only thing I've done to that one is plugs and timing belt and water pump.
  11. Ok, I'll have to try and port the box. Come to think of it, when I got these subs they were in this huge ported box made by kicker, they sounded sooo much better in that box than they do in this sealed one. Even with it firing down, it doesn't rattle at all. Thanks for the input. I'll research how big of a port to do, how deep the tube needs to go into the box. I don't remember, but I think each sub is in its own box and just connected to sit below the seat. I guess I could just use a hole saw and drill a hole on each side(?), Idunno Then what size...etc
  12. Does firing the subs into the carpet have any ill-effect on sound quality? I got my SSS back; I retained all of the items I removed for the sale. So b4 I secure the box under the seat I'm wondering if I should put down a piece of 1/4" luan (thin sub-floor wood), plexiglass or just put the thing in and don't worry about it. If it'll help distribute sound better is what I am trying to find out, but if I'm way off please let me know. Thanks.
