  1. I live in a small town in northern ontario, there is no waiting in traffic, and it isnt warm out for many days each year (over 70degrees) so cooling isnt and issue...... The irratating always running mechanical fan is though, takes a really long time to warm up when it is -15f and i do alot of hiway driving and i dont need that fan running all the time! From what i have read the stock 5.3l silverado fan would work the best for me, quiet, no need to replace alternator low cost etc. I need to know a few things.

     

    1. what year and models have fans that will work with my 03 Silverado SS

    2. What else do i need to make this work other than the fans, shroud and wiring harness from the 5.3

    3.do i need a custom tune to get the fan to work properly with the truck

     

    Thanks guys gonna get this done this winter!

  2. It may of not said flowmaster there are knock offs of them. You might as well call it a flowmaster / blowmaster whatever you want to call it. Those types of mufflers won't flow the cfm's worth a crap. I got took to on the flowmaster but it was all my fault because I read the section on the flowmasters were it said they choked peoples trucks down before installing it. Well I did it anyways, and lost alot of money because of it. Now I have the flowmonsters they really let the engine breath. The ones I have flow 1300 cfm and the flowmasters flow in the ballpark of 250 cfm. Check out the for sale section under magnaflow/flowmonster. It will definatley wake up your truck.

     

    So the flowmonster will wake up the truck some? questions.... are you referring to a 2 into 2 flowmonster that will (with some modifications work with the stock piping setup? also to anyone that has a flowmonster with that configuration, is it really loud inside the cab resonance/ drone wise if a guy is taking it easy on the throttle? I do ALOT of highway driving and cant afford to have my damn truck drive me nuts on the 2 hour drive to work at 5 am...........

     

    Thanks!

  3. I have a couple blown shocks on my SS i want to go to Bilstein all around, does anyone know a good supplier to ordr form in canada, if not a good one in the US. Is there a street preformance shock available for the SS or do you have to go with the heavy duty shock for the Silv 1500?
