That sounds a little better for the mind how much black bear would charge me to do the whole set up

ive seen your truck in the bronx many a time. I have also worked on almost all the fastest tow trucks in the 49 precint. What makes most of them so fast is they are driven like they wete stolen since day one. Very few of them have real performance mods. I can beat most with my awd. If you pin the pedal 15 times a day since day one your truck will feal faster.

I got a LQ9 from a escalade and I did nothing but in take and exhaust. I had it dyno tuned and I am getting 300 hp. From the 5.3 to the 6.0 was a big difference. A nice mild can would wake this engine up and would be amazing. The truck feels a lot lighter and gets up and goes very quickly with little effort.
I vote for a 6.0L. :chewie::cheers:

I may have missed it but what motor are you working with??? That aside ... are there any car clubs or events around you?? Do you know anyone that is into "modded" vehicles??

Anyone in that "arena" will have a "Machine Shop" they use for there motors. Local "Speed Shops" would have hooks ups also. Those are the sources you need to find. WHen I moved to NV and needed work done for a motor, I knew "no one???" I worked at "Mr Gasket" and there was a car guy there and I asked him about finding about "Machine Shop???"

He recommended "Marine Automotive" not a name I would have looked out?? I went down there and talked to them ... worked out fine. :)


And ... "Black Bear" that's this guy.:
