    Latest update. More than likely going to have the typhoon I am working on buttoned up and be working on a couple other little toys but looks like I will be going with some of my friends that are GM rep's this year.

     

    At this point I am thinking we do a bbq the weekend following?

     

    What works for everyone? Let me know. Either by PM or drop me an email [email protected]

    tailgate

    ss bumper rear cover

    ss spoiler

    Got a brand new tailgate from an 05 with about 3 miles on it. been sitting wrapped up for a long time now graphite like the two tone on my truck.

     

    Shipping would be killer though. Vegas to Ny I would say 250 plus whatever it is to ship

  3. New Orleans Guys

    Hey guys I am driving the VHO down to New orleans next week doing some tuning some fabbing and some racing. I will be staying with another SS member out in the Slidell area.

     

    If anyone wants to get together next weekend drop a line we are hoping to get down to the cruise that started this week as well. And I know Eddie is coming down from Central LA so we can dial in his SD tune and toss on some headers for him.

     

    Should be a good time guys.

     

    Anyone between Vegas and Nola that wants to say hey hit me up

  5. 160* Tune And Running Warming With Load

    in PCM Tuning

    Posted

    I have a tune for a 160* t-stat on my truck and its running at near 210 when pulling a 3200 lb load. I'm not running it hard at all. Will it still hurt it? I have about 90 minutes to go

    If your going off the dash gauge you might really only be around 200 degrees.. the stock gauges are off anywhere between 10-15 degrees I have seen with the ss clusters.

     

    If you are going of an aeroforce gauge those are right on the money. 210 will get you home in the heat. I would check your coolant level just to be 100% certain but in the summer here in nevada with the air on I run right about 200-210 with factory e fans and a 160 stat.

     

    You should make it home no prob bud

  9. Spintech Mufflers

    in Bolt On Performance

    Posted

    I know just about every post in this section is about pacesetter long tubes or muffles. But i dont hear any one talking about the spintech mufflers. I listened to a few trucks on youtube and they dont seem to sound bad. Anyone had any experience with them?

     

    I have run them in the past on a couple of applications even long before the ls1 was an engine. I have tired them on a couple LS based builds. I personally don't like the sound. You do get a deep sound at wide open with no cats but it doesn't sound crisp to me. Their selling point is the durability of the baffles and the fact that they rob nothing from the airflow. I have a corsa now which honestly I can't see it robbing anything because it is built with a chamber with packing that does nothing to influence the flow simply drown out the resonance. I have run Dynomax race magnums and bullets as well as the super turbo's. If you want the badass sound and not really go crazy at idle or part throttle look into the race magnum welded from Dynomax. They have a rebate going now for I think 25 off each muff anyways.

     

    To me the spintech's drone like a flowmaster and I have yet to ever see them make power just end up sounding obnoxious. They work well on circle track cars but they are running 7-8000 rpm alot longer than street cars do.

     

    Hope that helped. good luck!

    One more reason stupidity should be painful.

     

    Really.

     

    But that's the main reason if I do go to walmart I go to the 24 hour one at like 2 am. (love vegas) Mainly to avoid that shit. It's like going to an amusement park every piece of trailer trash is in there buying either one item or 100 items and being rude and inconsiderate. The problem that gets me the most is the kids opening up toys and packages then their mother or father says no the kid throws it on the ground and storms off. Now the guy getting paid minimum wage has to pick up after someone's brat. Meanwhile mom is over there on asile 34 spraying febreze to see if it smells better than the glade.

     

    It comes back to what makes me most upset in the end. The feeling of entitlement the last couple generations of people have now. I am going general as far as age groups here. I am sure some of the guys on the site are older. But I think I can say most of our folks all have a different level of respect for things cause they had to work really hard to get the things they had. They respected that. They cared about everything. The kids today think stuff is owed to them. They all are supposed to be supplied computers in school videogames and every little punk ass 16 year old in the valley thinks he is either gotta roll in a jacked up truck with rims on it that will never go offroad or you get these other kids who think that they are fast and furry. They have zero respect for what it took to EARN a car. EARN a paycheck. Mommy and daddy are taking way too good of care and when they don't take good enough care then they are "underprivileged" Underprivileged is living in a cardboard box eating 6 month old Cheetos and drinking from a rain gutter. Those kids. That roll in the cars they don't pay for are going to have kids that give even less of a shit. Unfortunately they grow up watching stupid shit like professional "athletes" and I use that term loosely, as role models. Whatever happened to your Dad being your inspiration making your family proud. Now these kids want to be "pro skaters" pro ball players" and my personal favorite for vegas " MMA fighters"

     

    I could go on for hours but yeah.

     

    The only way to counter act this whole mess we are in now is to try and lead and set good examples. Don't ever give up.

    only mods to the engine are a drop in K&N, shorty JBA headers and the FLowmaster..........new intake soon and going to replace the FM w/ a Magnaflow, tired of the drone @ highway speeds

     

    trans was rebuilt in January w/ a Vette servo, shift kit.....my uncle built so it's basically indestructable, but we all know how weak these 4l60e's are...........but I must say I love hearing the tires chirp @ 5500rpm @ WOT going from 1st to 2nd

     

    anyone got any leads on an HD hood? pref. black or red

     

    I will tell my buddy at the bodyshop to watch for an HD hood.

     

    Yep you need to loose that blowfaster. Get some long tubes and a nice exhaust setup going and a tune and it will be nice. Mine doesn't drone on the highway it just sounds like your windows are going to blow out when I pass yourolleyes.gif

    A good tune will help you out alot. The stock tune's make the trucks nosedive a bit when it comes to shiftpoints. That right out of the gate will pick you up some time. As well as a good calibration with whatever bolt on's you do will go a really long way.

     

    If you are in Texas Check out Wheatley he does some really nice work.

     

    Keep at it our trucks are alot of fun at the track

    Just want to get a thread up see who is coming out for it. Depending on who or how many I might have some SS' folks over for a bbq Like I did a couple years ago. Last year I had to work the entire week so there was really no time to hang out with anyone.
