  1. UPDATE: keep in mind guys, this WON'T be a track/quarter mile truck. I'm keeping it a regular driver ha not really a DD, but I'd like to be able to take it out without a whole bunch of maintenance. Lol

     

    What is the best route to go for bolt-on mods?

     

    bolt on mods on a s/c'd 408? typically people "bolt on" then get the bug and work up to a f/i punched and stroked motor.

     

    biggest thing is to make sure that engine can breath...inhale and exhale. the more efficiently your engine can move air, the more power it will make.

     

    always a good ref for mods: http://www.silveradoss.com/forums/topic/38271-before-you-post-read-this/ . that thread has dyno results, it had plenty of quality discussions about every mod for these trucks. professional and independent testing and results, successful and failed mods. be patient and read all discussions and follow links, you'll be happy you did and you'll be able to make your own informed decision on the final direction you want to go with your truck and make it one of a kind. hope this helps. :thumbs:

  2. around the time my truck got stole and i was on here alot i use to see you, wodys girl and fast4popper

     

    so i buy another truck and get back on and i didnt see any of the 3 anymore...

     

    dont know what happen but good to see you back

     

    sorry about your truck!

     

    lots of stuff has gone down. "wody's girl" is no longer "wody's girl," i have't seen "popper" on in a while...i would like to hear from him though. maybe i'll talk with him before i head out to iowa next summer so we can meet and catch up. :fingersx:

     

    Welcome back Alan. :chevy:

     

    thank you, sir :pepsicheer:

  3. bad news bears, dude. sounds like your a/c compressor is done for. this is a very common issue. if you just replace the belt and tensioner, it will continue to rattle because the compressor is actually locking that belt up. pull the belt off and try to turn the compressor by hand.

  4. released to atmosphere? :nono:

     

    just because the low side reads high does not automatically mean its over charged. i see it all the time when the charge gets so low it shuts the system down completely. most of the time when that happens, the gauge will actually go to "retard" on the low side. best thing to do is have it evacuated, vacuumed down and leak checked.

  5. Yeah, do somemore research....he ate some bath salts that you can basically buy at your local Walmart ect...it basically has the same chemicals as some super strong meth/LSD crap and separates your mind from your body...explains why the bullets didn't effect him at first.. :/

     

    no. bath salts is the street name for the drug. you will throw up if you ate actual bath salts. my buddy told me that there was a bust in LA today at a smoke shop, but they claimed that they were the real bath salts that you throw in the tub. police knew better.

  6. crown vics are still the hit out here, even the 2nds hand ones that they sold to civi's. only thing now is we have unmarked crown vics with chrome wheels, mini vans, f150's with camper shell, tiburon, and thats just what ive seen catching people ridin' dirty.

     

    you wouldn't believe that types of vehicles that pulled up with lights and sirens when i saw a moto officer lay his bike down. i pulled up right behind him so that no one coming around the corner and hit him while he was still down. once he got up i pulled over gave my statement of what i saw, then left. the officer was a little embarrassed but it's expected if you lay your bike down AND an officer.

  7. Were you in the penitentiary for murdering your truck?

     

    thats not funny. one officer issued me citation after citation for dark everything. window, tails......the works. got em signed off, but i could see how murdering my truck could have got me locked up.

  8. well damn son good to see u still around... don't know wat has been going on around here lately, i'm not on here much anymore... hope u'v been good tho bro...

     

    -Rob
