smallblock500 Posted January 1, 2010 Report Share Posted January 1, 2010 just picked up my blue silverado SS 12/30 for $15,559.35 out the door. so far i love the truck only gripe about it is that after 2nd gear it feels like the truck lays down and looses power. 1st gear hauls butt and snaps your head back but once it hits 2nd gear its just kinda blah. i guess thats in the tune though right? i would like to find some one in my area that could tune it for me for a reasonable price.

RockHead Posted January 1, 2010 Report Share Posted January 1, 2010 Welcome to the site That could be the tune or a shaft kit . Do you know all of the mods that are on your SS? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Supercharged06SS Posted January 1, 2010 Report Share Posted January 1, 2010 hit up Justin from Blackbear Performance. Mail out your PCM to him on Monday, have it back in the truck by Friday. Simple. That'll take care of the torque management you are feeling in 2nd gear. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mcmahan Posted January 1, 2010 Report Share Posted January 1, 2010 welcome a good shift kit and a good tune will change it alot it will feel like a new truck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smallblock500 Posted January 2, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 2, 2010 It doesn't have any mods that i know of it still has the stock air box and exhaust on it. I don't want to go super wild with the truck for a while because it will be my daily driver/ light duty tow rig once and a while for a Jr Dragster. All im looking at getting for it right now is tint, CAI and just replace the stock muffler with 2 after market mufflers so give it some sound with out it being too loud. Of corse a tune would be nice just to get rid of the TM I tuned it out of my girls car (2000 bonneville SSEi) and it made a huge difference not to mention the smaller pulley, headers, and full exhaust. she says i cant do anything to my truck until she gets more parts for her car though so i guess my truck will have to wait at least until she gets her LS1 throttle body adapter plate and the flip out dvd player she wants.
