Awesome pics and lots of nice cars!
Your dad's Chevelle is my favorite by far. That was one of the cars my father had and is now my ultimate dream car.
-
ya I'd like to paint my amber reflector black. I actually have an excuse to now. One of my parking lights is getting moisture in it. Wat does cyber.grey look like?
Robbie (supecharged06ss) had rims painted cyber grey in his sig and I believe eventually did his ducts too before he sold the truck. It's the dark grey metallic that can be seen on zr1's.

The black with the arrival blue looks good
Plan on dropping it now?

I bought mine back in 03 from a company called Meccatune. Ballasts are still good, but I've gone through bulbs. I had 8300k and they looked like none other. There is much debate over it, but truth is the heat and mix of gases can be changed to produce a variety of shades of the standard temps and colors of hids. I changed from 30000k purple, 8000k blue, but miss my 8300k the most and I can't read the Japanese website

Cyber grey would still stand out and look better with all black than the factory IMO. I would prob lose the headlight covers, but to keep the blackout theme, do the corners in the lights black or maybe get the aftermarket ones with the black in em.

Judging by your mods and since you'll be towing a bass boat, not a yacht, opt out for mo powah!
How often do you tow your boat vs just driving your truck around?
-
For the price it would cost, I'd rather save the cash for the next gen silverado SS, hoping they make one

Paint the rims and ducts and you'll be all murdered out

You sir are definitely one lucky man! Got yourself two keepers now. Congrats

If that's a pile, it sure is a nice one.
Welcome to the forum.
It's more tame here than GMFS, but still lots of real good info. -
I wish there were meets like that down here
And what would all those nice trucks be without a bikini contest

Drop it 3/4 and I think you'll be very happy with the look

Remove the bezel and pull out the cluster. Check for loose wires and a good connection. Did it do it before you replaced the cluster? Maybe the person who opened it up messed something up inside. If it were the BCM, then I would think the other interior lights and features would have similar symptoms. If it didn't work at all, I would be more suspicious of the BCM.

Oil pressure sensor. Located behind the intake.
I doubt it's the stepper motor acting up. Replace the sensor and your problem should go away. I would try to fix it as soon as you can just in case it isn't the sensor.

Now you're due for some much deserved family time. Thank you for serving this country good sir

The BCM is under the dash. What's wrong with the truck that you believe it needs to be changed
-
Glad to see you're getting it rebuilt and don't have to shell out more cash. That's more money for other mods.
Zippy does have a point. I and most haven't had good luck with the 4l60, but I have seen them hold up a good amount of power and abuse in other vehicles. Even the 80e's break, and they are pricier when built, not to mention the extra work, time, and money it takes to do the swap.
-
Sell the extras and if possible, spend the money on a more "appropriate" cam for the motor and get the heads to compliment the build. It'll take time and money later swapping the heads and cam, so I'd just do it now. I know it's not timely and may not exactly be budget, but I think it's worth doing at the stage you're at instead of going through it later.
-
Try and have as little gas as possible in the tank for when you drop it. It's easier than taking the bed off IMO.
-
Some sick rifles and great craftsmanship. Nice work

Awesome graduation gift! Let's see some pics

Gotta love Florida! $84.10 for new registration, no inspections, and my tag is at the end of the year even though my bday is in November.

Lookin good man
Plan on dropping it anytime soon?

Sounds good Brian
Sorry about the trans man, but they like to crap out under throttle even when built. Think it was the polished internals you put in there?

Thought I'd share some pics even tho it's not a truck. Lifted it 2" with keys and aal's (managed to drag on past midnight with help from Bud Light), new Bilsteins all around, MT Baja MTZ's, added the chrome gas cap and grille guard, and a Volant. Then went and got it a bit dirty and a little bit stuck trying to see what the little 5.3 in it could do. Im not a big fan of all the chrome, but when I do his custom exhaust, headers, and maybe a few other goodies, I will like it more
Lifting it and forgot jackstands
Lifted with the new tires and a fresh wash
Added mud for a deep dish look
Ground clearance
Cleaned by a t-storm driving back
Went through a deep hole somewhere and bent the tag
