    I wanted to share with all the SS family that I am selling my 2003 Silverado SS. Above is the link to the sale of my truck listed on bismanonline. I bought this truck with about 52,000 miles on it and had it for ~3 years. It's been a great and the most fun vehicle I've owned. The add has all the information I can think of at the moment. If anyone is interested and has any questions you can contact me on bismanonline or my number listed on the add. I will try to check this site as well. Thanks for looking and thanks to anyone who has helped with me with information on these trucks!! They're definitely fun to own and drive!!

    Just wanted to throw this out there for anyone who is looking at buying an SS. I found this SS one night and decided to email the guy that I was interested. I kinda figured it was too good to be true in the first place based on the price and the condition of the truck. I should have went with my gut feeling. I emailed him and he emailed me back. He even texted me!! After telling him I had someone to come and look at the truck he switched it up and that's when I decided to look into it more. Also he said it HAD to be done through Google Wallet. I researched it and found many many other scams that were almost the exact same with other vehicles/people's names. Just wanted you to all be aware of these damn scam artists!!

  3. bump....Anybody have some knowledge on the difference between the mp112 and the tvs1900?? I'm trying to decide which one would be the best for my truck. So far I've seen the tvs1900 for 5950 and the mp112 for 5250. These are both brand new. I haven't been able to find the tvs1900 for the 03. It says 04 to 07. Is the only reason for this because of the 03 fuel system needing to be upgraded first? Anybody with some supercharger knowledge, your help would be greatly appreciated. I just wanna make a decision between either one of these as I think they would both make enough power for me. Also if anybody knows do these both come with the fuel system upgrades I'd need or do I have to get that separate? Thanks guys

  4. Ok. I figured either the 112 or tvs 1900 would work. I'm thinking of the tvs1900. For the extra $700 or so I've heard its more efficient than the 112 correct me if i'm wrong. right around that 6000 range is about right for me I don't think I want to spend over that. My trans does have a shift kit and servos and aluminum acc. pistons. I'm thinking it should be fine for a while? seems to be what most people are running. I plan on running this transmission with the uprgrades it has in it until it shits the bed and just save up for an 80e or built 65e. I could be wrong, but with the upgrades i have it should last me a decent while. I don't drive this truck every day, but when I do drive it i guess i'm not THAT easy on it :driving:

  5. Hey guys, I've been reading a lot on superchargers and i've decided for what I want supercharged would be the best for what I want out of my truck. Right now it is my only truck but down the road it won't be. Not much for track stuff here in ND so mainly just want a pretty fast street truck to maybe take to a track in the future for fun. You can read my sig, but I think i'm about ready to supercharge it. My main mods are e-fans, hd-2c shift kit, vette servo, 4th billet servo, aluminum acc. pistons, 1 7/8" ARH long tubes with high flow cats, dynomax x-flow muffler duals, CAI, plugs and wires, and zippy tune. My main question to you guys out there with either of these superchargers is which would you recommend for my set up? I'm debating between the tvs 1900/2300 or mp112/122. I've read up on both of these and what i've got out of it is that the new tvs is more efficient. Is that all? Also since I have a 2003 what exactly do I need to do for fuel system setup and would this come in either of the kits? Just wanting some opinions here if thats cool with you guys.

     

    Thanks- Lyndon

  6. I had a similar problem after installing my ARH too. The drives side header was a tight fit for sure. It misses the frame by I'd say about 1/4" maybe 1/2" on the drivers side. You do have to relocate your brake line. The header puts two of my brake lines in a bind. I still have to relocate mine. Other than that I LOVE these headers. They make the truck sound bad ass and gains are definitely noticeable. Especially with the zippy tune :thumbs:

  7. Alright cool I kinda figured that from what I've been reading. Not sure where to start, when it comes to internals i'm not real knowledgable. I was thinking converter, cam, injectors, and supercharger in that order. Soonish this truck won't be my DD just a fun truck to take out :). I haven't read much on the 160 thermostat and what the benefits are. Sounds like I got more reading to do. Thanks for helping out a newbie like me!

  8. Yup! I didn't think I would have to lower the transmission because the the 2nd servo should have slid off the actual rod, but I think just from the wear and tear of having 70,000 miles on my transmission it didn't come off like it should. Anyway I got that out and the vette servo, 4th billet servo, and shift kit back in. Installed the e-fans, zippy tune, and 145 amp alternator. Took it for a drive and so far it runs like a top!!! :):driving::chevy: I didn't put any spacers in the 1 to 2 accumulator and I'm kinda glad I didn't. Its perfect at light throttle and its pretty hard at WOT. I love it!

  9. Ok sweet thanks for helpin me out. I do have another question that I've wondered about. Did you block off anything in your separator plate? I haven't read the directions much, but heard you block off a hole in the separator plate for the shift from 2 to 3 to be firm like 1 to 2? Did you do this? Any other tips you got that I could miss would be appreciated. Got the pan and filter off last night. I'm going to be following the transgo video with the help of a few write ups today when me and my brother install it. Time to get to work!!

  10. Anybody out there that has a transgo hd2 shift kit with a mail order zippy tune? I'm asking because this is what I will have and I am on the fence whether to put 1 washer or no washers in the 2nd accumulator. I want a firm shift under normal throttle and hard shift under WOT. What does anybody else recommend, 1 or none? Shift kit and zippy custom tune is going in tomorrow night/Friday. :chevy::driving:

  11. Ok i'll keep the steel ones. Thanks for the info guys. I didn't know about the bypass on the tranny cooler i'll have to look more into this and definitely do it. I did read your How-To 2bfast. There is a lot of helpful information in there. I haven't taken apart a tranny before, but I think from what I've read I know what i'm in for. I set aside January 13th-16th to get all the work done. I just hope everything goes well.
