ss-supersleeper Posted May 9, 2012 Report Share Posted May 9, 2012 whats up guys, ive owned my ss since november of 2011. I always wanted a victory red 03 awd ss and finally got it. I finally had the time to become a member today. Right now my truck is at Nelsons Performance in San Antonio, TX. Dropping in a forged 5.7, front mount turbo, methanol kit, 100 pnd inj, edelbrock high rise intake, and a few more extra goodies. Also got my gauges customized by the gmguy from this website. (everybody seems to know him from his awesome work.) I'll post pics soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_aSSet Posted May 9, 2012 Report Share Posted May 9, 2012 (edited) Why a 5.7 might I ask? And welcome! Edited May 9, 2012 by The_aSSet (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ss-supersleeper Posted May 9, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 9, 2012 well when i bought the truck i blew the 6.0 4 days later. So then I put the truck up for a while since i work in the oilfield, gave myself time to think on what to do to it. Well my buddy had almost the same setup as me on a 2008 gmc crew cab. He took the 5.3 out and did the forged 5.7. Man it was a monster, it ran a 12.4 at the 1/4 mile. It just ran beautiful and the motor never gave him problems. I'll see how mine runs next week, it is still at nelsons performance in SA, TX. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Downeast Johnny Posted May 13, 2012 Report Share Posted May 13, 2012 Hey Sleeper, The SSS and I were in Midland this past Feb. Likely to be a long time before we get back but I'll give a holler. I realy like West Texas. Have you checked out Ft. Davis area, yet? Beautiful country. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
