    I got a new intercooler We went to the track and mrs drove, first run 11.2 , and had to abort her second run because she got the truck a little bit sideways . Then it was rain stop play. The good news is the inlet air temps were half that of last year. Should be good for more boost this season. looking for some lighter wheels and drag radials now. Does anyone know if 18" rims will go over SSBC 14' rotors and suggestions for rims and tires much appreciated.
  4. Well done on getting into the ten's, I know it takes a lot to get there.Your ticket and mine are more or less the same. I have done a few mods over winter so hoping to improve this year, still got a cage to sort out though.
  5. I Quite liked the idea of the strange street/strip kit you mentioned NolletSSS , so I sent strange an e-mail asking the ? and they say they don't do a kit that fits our trucks at all. I will have to see what Moser have to say if they don't do a kit I will have to see about getting one made over here in the UK
  6. 2004 ss awd 10 bolt, anyone done a c clip delete and if so do you have any part numbers. I have done a bit of research and it seems there are two different size bearings on the 10 bolts, does anyone know the size of the bearing on our trucks. I am putting quite a bit of hp to the wheels now and feel this is something I should do. Any help much appreciated.
  7. Congrats on getting into the tens, I know it takes a lot of work to do.

    Fastest 60' time

    Stock wheels and tires,I bet the tires are the original ones from new, trucks only done 22k miles. I would like to get some lighter weight rims and some drag radials, can't just buy that sort of stuff over here though have to ship it over from the states.

    Thanks guys, takes quite a bit to make these big trucks run that fast, I need to get the iat's down at the top of the track, it's pulling quite a bit of timing. Bigger intercooler on the shopping list and perhaps another meth nozzle

    My partner raced my truck at York raceway on Monday, she was running mid 11's and getting quicker so we turned the boost up a bit for her last run and she did this,

    Cheers Guys, The motor is a LSX 427 twin turbo gt 35r, with a FLT level 5 4l80e, Aeromotive eliminator fuel pump -12 feed -10 return, 2 piece steel prop shaft and diff brace. SSS in the UK I know of four two black two blue, two are members on here Eamonnechevy (He's sold his sss and bought a bentley) and Gary. Rule of thumb for us Brits for buying states side is whatever it costs $ convert to £ . I paid $20K for my truck in 06 with 14K on it after shipping and taxes it was about £20K engine dyno rolling road dyne

    Couple of runs of my truck at Santapod raceway UK. first run after rebuild on 600 bhp tune second run getting better still need work. suspension work needed over winter caltracs front straps and shocks , should be good to go.
  15. That's a quick truck you got there, nice one, be in the tens next time out then.
  16. Nice looking setup, are you going to use turbo blankets and wrap the hot pipes or just rely on coating, that monster of a motor is going to make a lot of heat
  17. Talked to Nathan at HP performance today and he as told me he as got a truck coming in Monday and he should have the problem with the header resoveld by Thursday and will have the header shipped out the following week. lets hope it all comes off. I'll keep you posted.
  18. Hi Eamonn, It's a shame I've got to sit about while they find an awd truck, still, It'll be worth it in the end. I went with a FLT level 5 4l80e I had the 4l65 beefed up but decided it wouldn't hold up to the power levels we are aiming for, hoping to make about 800 bhp. Pleased to hear your truck is back on the road, must be a nice feeling after such a long wait.
  19. I think this is what happened, they tell me they are having trouble getting a awd truck, so they can check things out. So if anyone is in New Mexico and are passing HP performance could you drop in and let them take a look, I'd appreciate it. thanks.
  20. Am I right in thinking the 2wd trucks have a steering rack and the awd have a steering box and that could be a reason there is an issue with it fitting No it's not a car kit, this is one of their truck kits
  21. I've got a problem with the steering shaft not clearing the header. I have bought a twin turbo kit from HP performance in New Mexico and I don't think they realised there was a difference between a two wheel drive truck and awd. Nathan from HP performance Has asked if there is anyone in New Mexico , Roswel, 301 E 4th st who has a Awd chevy and would be willing to drop by their shop so they could take a look and maybe help them to sort this problem out. It would be much appreciated if anyone could help with this. Thanks Ivan This is the problem Nathan or Jimmy on 505 623 2555

    Engine Height

    Hi, Does anyone know if the engine in an awd sits higher in the compartment than a 2 wheel drive. Thanks, Ivan.
  23. Thanks for the quick reply CD, much appreciated Ivan
  24. Hi guys, I'm having a 408 lsx engine built and my question is , the cam sensor on the lq9 is in the rear of the block and on the lsx it's on the front in the timming cover, is the signal generated for the pcm the same or will the pcm need to be modified. Thanks Ivan
