I'd change the oil before you put a clutch in. if the oil is too light IE: 5w30, the clutch will "slip." put some of the reccomended oil in and try that out. Motorcyle oil tends to be thicker and thats what helps the clutch to "stick" when engaged.
looks like a sweet deal though. My uncle had a bike like that when i was a kid... it was pretty cool

keep the car, stop modding the truck. If i had known what i do now, i would have a blower and a t56 in my 69 SS 396 el camino, but instead, i waste money on my DD to make it "fast" lol. I'm trying to be conservative with my new denali, and only doing a couple cosmetic goodies to set it apart from the rest then, i'm going to concentrate on gathering parts for a Procharger install.

I'm suprised it took 42psi... i've seen alot of stock honda motors grenade after about 8psi lol!
I guess if the AFR and timing are just right one could run some pretty good boost safely
-
gnarly!! been there... just ran them over and i was going probably half as fast. lol
-
Good move, it should look sweet with the drop. Is it AWD?
Yes it is AWD. With the Vortec Max and 4.10 gears... just like an SS but a crew cab lol the only difference in the drivetrain is the transfer case... the x-fer case in the ss is 100% gear driven and engaged all the time and the denali i believe is clutch driven and is only engaged in when it slips or when torque is applied or something silly like that lol

Camaro!! 100% the Maro, I'm sure they're lighter and have just as much power= faster! And besides they are sexy!

Quick question... Does anyone have an intake on their SSS? If so, what type is good? Horsepower wise? Fuel wise? I am looking to put one on my SSS. Any suggestions? Thanks!
I suggest you use the "SEARCH" feature... there are literally hundreds of threads on Cold Air Intakes lol good luck,
as far as the Fujita intake goes....
looks like it belongs on a honda, you want something that will keep the heat out of your intake and allow more air to be drawn. Just my $0.02 -
Not feeling the wheels on the Denali. Maybe its the wheel gap and nurf bars.
Sweet truck though.
wheel gap will soon be a thing of the past... gonna do a 2/3 drop REAL soon. As far as the Nerf bars go, I'm going to keep them for now, they are kinda out of the "sport truck" scene, but this is a "luxury sport truck", so I'm thinkin they're okay lol

Where did you get your Woodgrain Wheel? I have a white 07 SD classic as well and cant find the wheel anymore. I know autowoods.com used to sell them.. but not anymore. I also purchased from the dealer the woodgrand window switches off a Yukon Denali.. they are a nice touch as well..
I got the wheel at: www.wooddashexperts.com
the color is a good match and the wood grain is pretty nice. not as nice as the autowoods but still good quality.
-
wait so did you trade the tbss in for that or you still have it? nice wheels none the less. great taste bro
no stil got the tbss lol

Got an 07 Denali Sierra Classic a couple of weeks ago, and i wasnt really feeling the stock 20's so i ordered some new rims and tires Monday and they came in today. They are 22x9.5 Boss 330's and Toyo Proxes II 305/40R22
cell phone pic:
so what do you guys think?
oh i also bought a new wood grain steering wheel that matches the black cherry on my factory dash bezel, but haven't had a chance to get it installed.

just change the belt.. its quick, easy and most often done only when there is a problem. IMO... i would change the belt every 45-50k miles just to prevent any mishaps
-
Looking good Dave. Those pistons almost look too good to hide in the cylinders... they are handsome ha ha
-
lol... she is no $1,000,000 piece of ass... maybe $100 if she were lucky!
-

-
lookin slick there Quik. I am anxious to see the numbers with this setup. So do you think you'll be in the 10's with this??
btw: is that a lengenfelter launch control i see??
-
Sent you a PM Art. Lookin forward to a pair if all is kosher.
-
It should, but i'm not certain. I forget what the side covers mount to...
-
LQ4+boost=bad ass pick up.
nice choice...those are very nice and low key, just like the sss w/o the attention
no LQ4 here... those are for sissies... lol all LQ9. 2007 had a Vortec MAX package... guess which one i got
-
Congrats, nice truck.
So, did you sell or trade in the TBSS?
I still have the TBSS, but it is for sale. lol
-
Hey man,
Sorry for your loss. I always hated loosing a pet. Dogs are great companions and each are different, so they are very easy to get attatched to.

I would buy a Denali. It will be my next truck. Talk about a drastic color change and vehicles that you went through, haha. The white should be less of a headache to take care of.
Now, I will be the first to ask. What are the first mods gonna be?
I'm gonna stay relatively low key with this truck. Gonna tint the windows (a must), Remove the side moldings, take the chrome door handles off, do a HI-4 headlight conversion, HID low beams, Volant CAI, Taylor Wires, Optima Red Top, and some LED tail lamps. I may get some 2" drop shackels for the rear to level out the ride a lil, just so the rear don't look like its tied to a hot air baloon. I'm kinda on the fence about the nerf bars at the moment, they are rather "old manish" but they really don't bother me right now.
It was a bit rough going from red to black... cause no matter how hard you try, there is always something wrong with black. Red was an easy color to keep sexy cause all you really needed to do was smudge some wax on it and it always looked good when clean. White is another low maintenence color, but will show abuse after time, so I cant get too lax with it, or it will look like crap shortly.
Luckily I still have my SSS stock wheels, so those will be my winter wheels. I think I'm gonna have them powder-coated either black or gun-metal grey. I kinda like the sinister wheels on white. lol
Thanks for the compliments everyone, I will get some decent pictures up of the new machine once i snap some with my camera.

Well, as some of you know, in February my SSS burned and went bye bye, and I "replaced" it with an SS Trailblazer which was fun for about 2 weeks and then i started to feel the empty spot again, cause the TBSS just isnt a truck and I'm a truck guy, so i had needs!! I put some goodies in the TBSS to try and fill the empty spot with a fookin quick DD SUV but still had the same empty feeling.
So the other day I decide to clean up the TBSS and put it out for sale and We get this 2007 Classic Sierra Denali in that is just tits... So i checked it out, and did a little soul searching and pulled the trigger on it this afternoon.
I'm very excited cause its like a crew cab SS and its still very classy and clean.
Sorry this is just a lousy phone pic:

I just don't add fuel to the fire. I try to keep a low profile these days and it works pretty good... occasionally i will piss someone off driving but i could care less, if it really bothers them they can try to keep up, but there aren't many daily driven cars around here that will hang with my TBSS. If all else fails I always have my .40 Glock
