^^^^haha .... Keep it on track get those iat down

I can't wait eeek

That's cool bro the trucks gonna love ya for that :-)

Make sure you seal that thing up really well. Last thing you want is a vacuum leak making you run lean.

Seal it? It came with a gasket, but would you run a black RTV or silicone too? Thanks for the input steve.

I think the guy that installed mine used the gasket and something called "right stuff", looks like a can of cheese wiz.

congrats on it! Just beware of the rubber T gasket seal, they are known for leaking toward the carb if you drive during rain or washing the truck. Just want to give you the heads up, welcome to the Gemtop club!

*leaking toward the cab*

There's a gemtop club? Is there a gemtop forum? Can i be in even though mines a checkmate?

Bout time slacker.. Lol JK

Haha best part is, I'm scheduled to work the shop Saturday. But when its slow, ill be pulling my blower apart. Lol. It's the best I can do cuz I don't wanna wait another week to do it.

Sounds like a good plan bro get-r-done lol

Hopefully it isn't major.

Well. Figured it out. Lol. A bearing was going in one of my 100mm idler pulleys. After X amount of revolutions, it hit a tough spot and bounce the tensioner pulley. Weird I know. But the noise was super loud in the idler when using a stethoscope. Remove the belt and the noise goes away. Spin the idler by hand and you can feel how gritty it is and how similar the tin can noise is when you spin it. So new bearings and I'm good.

well thats good news. I was bummed for a minute until I read the updated part.

^^^that boi !!!

Just race to 100mph your AWD traction will destroy him out of the hole but once he finally hooks up he will reel you in and pass you but it won't be until about 100mph lol

I doubt he will catch you by 100. Slap that ass and when your done say that's for my boys over on SilveradoSS.com

Buy another one bro haha

Haha no. I want a C6 Z06 so I can be like storm. Lol.

Haha they all migrated to Alaska

You too bro!!!!

Same to ya

Same to you bud.

BUT, ya never know. Sometimes it looks good on paper, but things don't always work out.

I think you will be surprised. Gotta get that thing to stick tho

Yeah. And i gotta figure out why im going lean all of a sudden. Fuel restriction/vacuum leak.. Gotta do some digging.

bought dam time..LOL. Your gonna love.

where did u order it, i need one too

Nice and yeah post up a pic

Sweet!!

Cool. Got my second in two weeks! Lol

Congratulations.

Got to be a good feeling to get her back together.

Congrats bro glad to hear it

Ill definitely let everyone know when Justin and I are heading down. Id like to meet everyone and check out your trucks. I just realized something funny. All of our SSs are Arrival blue except Justins (Fairbanks Justin). Lol. I thought blue was the rare color? Not black. Haha. But yeah. It'll be a great time.

80 swap?

Haha I think blue is the rare color but we all picked it!

X5 yes he been in and outa the hospital for a lil bit now

X6 your in our prayers bro

oh man what happened ive been trying to get ahold of him for a while now and never been getting anything in return no calls or emails. I kind of feel like a dick about it now after seeing this

Well, its not really anyones fault. Just sucks. The accumulator pistons and reverse input drum had to be ordered. They had everything else in stock. It all ships out tomorrow afternoon. So it'll be 2more weeks before my trucks on the road. Its STILL snowing here anyways. So i guess im in no hurry. Haha i just thought it was funny that PI had to make my converter from scratch and it arrived a week ago. PATC just had to take parts off the shelf, put them in a box, and ship it out. Haha.

was changing the tranny oil and got crazy with the air tool and whoop bolt broken in the trans

was changing the tranny oil and got crazy with the air tool and whoop bolt broken in the trans

And for what i spent, i could have gone WAY bigger than just a supercharged 370. But its what i wanted. And now ive got the trans to put up with anything i plan on running in the future. Whether it be a TVS 408 or 427. If anything, throw a billet input and ouput shaft into my trans and ill be good up to 850hp/850tq. ;)

you cant take any of that cash with you when you die! So what the heck, spend it on the SS !

Haha. I'm the same way. I just keep putting money in and see no end near. I have a nasty engine build in mind. Gonna be pretty sick. But it's a half a year away

Sounds like alot of sweetness goin on!!

Your truck won't know itself. Complete makeover.

I can't wait to see the wheels

Nice !! You'll love the shocks.. By far the best ive rode on when lowered..

I'm running those shocks on my truck and they work good, seemed like a big difference at first now its not as noticeable but still pretty good! Way better than original.

You guys need to get on it lol. Move south today was 82 tomm gonna be 80.

Haha its still 15 below here! And its middle of march! Bullshit!

Wow do you like it there that much? Or family and friends keeping ya there? Gotta be hard to deal with.

That's great news bro!!

Congratulation. Fresh power is good.

That's good new bro. Gonna be a beast

Hope you get it done with no more probs. I'm sure it's been a huge pain. Prob to much snow now to drive it tho
