CenWaSS

Sweet deal...I've owned two 70's, one long bed and one step side wide box. Of course I sold both of them, wish I still had them. The long bed was a CST-10 with a BB 402 with automatic trans and the wide box was a C-10 came with a straight six, though we swapped it out for a BB 396 backed with a Muncie 4-speed, that was a fun truck

Hang in there, stay positive, you can beat this

Seems like everthings cheaper in Texas excpet for power that is. Anyway here premium 92 octane is $4.49 on avg.

Thank you all . I told my wife I'm getting some SS gear for the little guy, she just roles her eyes. Little does she know he's getting the Silverado SS and Im getting the new Camaro SS...LOL I wish.....

Some of you may now that I recently added a TBTC and Zippy shift kit. Since I first got my SS out of the shop it would shift nice and smooth, almost as smooth as stock, and very firm under 3/4 to full throttle. Well today the 1-2 shift started to shift firm under light load and the remaining shifts were still smooth. Any ideas as to what is causing my SS to shift this way? It wouldn't be the PCM, could it? My tuner claims he reset the line press back to stock values and disabled all the torque managemnt. My tranny guy says that theres not much that could cause this, he's thinking the accumaltor spring snapped or something like that...make sense? I've had two tranny leaks, a outside temp switch broke/missing, a exhaust vibration, and now this since the install Not my luck, so far my tranny guy has fixed everything and keeps apoligizing for me having to come back and gets me in the shop immediatley. I appreciate his willingness to correct the problems but this is getting old. Sorry for the rant, I needed to unload...Im going to kick the cat next

I don't think there much you can do without adding a tune. With my mods I only get about 13 to 14 mpg's in town. I drive a 4 cylinder Honda to and from work to ease the pain Welcome to the site and post pics, we'd love to see your Intimdator

Well fellas, Im a new dad again...Meet the newest member of my family (Ethan Michael) born July 28, 2008 6lbs 7oz.

Nice pics Ray...that last one is awesome

Being it has the stage 1 kit at a minimum and those numbers are accurate (350hp) it should be close. He is lighter than you being a single cab so dont hold back, get the jump...be sure and get it on vid if you can Good luck bro!

A 4.8L with 335hp? He not stock I take it. If that hp is to the wheels...he's gonna take you if he can shift. I've never heard or seen an RSR, looks good IMO. Run him anyway and let us know how it turns out. Oh, get the tune first

Ya mines pretty quiet under normal driving but at WOT the Corsa Sport sounds bad ass IMO. If you want it louder add some LT's I really like the Corsa due to no drone...I've had flowmasters and straight pipe exhaust, really annoying drone if you ask me.

Will do...I need every tenth I can get

Well that changes everthing...do as you please while your young Get it all out of your system now!!! If/when you actually find one worth marrying, it will cost you big time especaily if you have kids....trust me I know this. FYI - I have ONE little girl with my ex and it costs me nearly $1000 per month. My truck would be faster than yours if I could use that money on my truck Oh another thing I've learned...marry for money, not love

Looks like fun I run a JATO with the 2.5 engine, though its down right now because I broke it about a month ago. I hit a stake at WOT (+/-60mph) and completely snapped off the left a-arms and steering.

I'm not saying I would not have talked to her but the lunch thing, no way. And yes, I've been in these situations before and have given in at times (when I was younger of course). I like to think I'm a little wiser and I can honestly say I would not have taken her to lunch. I'm thinking your younger than me, so I say why not...see whats out there but you should be honest with your g/f, sounds like you are

Good point...

So the question is, when ready to race do you stall your truck up (if so how much?) or take off from idle? I hear these trucks perform the same either way, what your experience been? How about with a stall convertor, shall I launch off an idle? I personally stall my truck up to 2k and have had my best times doing that while shifting manually How about shifting...what works best for you. Leaving in "D" and hammer down or 1st gear and shift manually?

Something similiar happened to me but with my boat. I had my boat tied off at the dock while I went up and had a drink in a local bar. As I'm looking over the deck a group of people were in my boat taking pics and what not. Unlike you, I went down there and told them to get the f*ck out of my boat. They did without any hassle but I later found light switches and the stereo were left on from those people fiddling around with the controls. Not cool IMO. I'm sure those hill billy rednecks had a chitty night...

Not a good move IMO. What if that chick would have thrown her self at you? Could you have said no? Though it was innocent, this is how sh*t starts. First starts out as just talking, then going to lunch and so on. Something to think about...I for one would not like it if my wife did this, therfore I would not have taking this girl out to lunch. That sucks about your work not paying you for jury duty. Im not sure if its law or anything but at my job we cannot loose money for jury duty. If you are at jury duty less than 4hrs we must report to work, if not we get paid as a normal day. Of course my employer doesn't check, I always say I was there all day lol

Good to know, I just added a TBTC and zippy shift kit. I tow about 4 miles round trip less than 10 times a year. Can I still use the tow/haul feature or does it matter?

My buddy has one and hit a 13.7 bone stock. Not sure how acurate it is but that time came from the car's computer (1/4 mile time). By the way...the stripes look GREAT

Keep us posted...

I just had mine (Tru-Cool Max w/o bypass) installed last week or so and thus far I haven't seen temps above 130F. I did add a TBTC though, that alone I was told will raise temps 20F so I opted for the Max and synthetic fluid .

Yup...I agree! Looks sick and even better in person

Thanks guys...thats why I love this site, you guys got this stuff down I'll check the sensor tommarow and see whats up .
