Here's a picture of my Denali and the start of my build thread. Have lots of plan for it. e7bfbbd5a6e6280b101dbe03de504946.jpg

Here's a list of what's I've done on the exterior so far.
Exterior: De-bagged, lowered torsion bars all the way, cut springs (cheap way, rides fine), tinted windows, esky handles, esky antenna cowl end cap, esky 22s, led tails, clear Sierra headlights and turn signals, LED conversion on all lights, painted grill, and added lower valence

Interior: escalade knobs and vents (putting shifter in soon), full audio system includes Pioneer 80PRS, stinger 8000series rcas, Phoenix Gold Elite 5 Amp, Audison Bit TenD, Hertz Mille 2way(front), Audison Prima (rear), Hertz Hi-Energy 12s, Dynamat all around and some Dynapad on the floor, Stinger SPV70 battery also. Here's some pics of the build

Motor/Trans: Almost stock 6.0. I swapped my 317s for 243s, Spectra Intake, Taylor Race-fit Plug Wires, LLP Long Tubes with a tune. Pushing 325 ft/lbs to the wheels. Currently working and a build. Just a list of parts I have collected. TBSS intake, LS3 TB, FIC 60# injectors, Walbro 255 fuel pump, Flex-fuel conversion, Lingenfelter GT11 cam, precision dual springs .660 lift w/ titanium retainers, pushrods, LS7 TSP lifters, NOS wet kit, stock efans, b&m trans cooler, 4l80e w/ stage2 shift kit with circle d billet convertor. I have to buy a couple harnesses and misc parts for the 80 swap then I should be installing in hopefully before the end of the year. Looking to re-gear to 4:11s or 4:56s (undecided) and going for a pro charger or super charger in the future.

Brakes: Right now are stock. I have Eradispeed 15" rotors front & rear. Also have Z06 front calipers with brackets. Just need to buy Z06 rear calipers, and pads then swapping to big brakes. Also have 5 piece stainless braided brake lines. Should have plenty of stopping power.

Plans for next year is to get all the suspension done. Want to drop it about 4/6. Do sway bars and make it handle better. I also have a Chevy hd hood modded for gmc. Just needs to be re painted. Came off my old truck

Looks great. I did a 80e swap with segment swap in my old 02 Yukon. Let me know if you have any questions.

This will be killer when you're done.

Sounds good. I'll need a couple pointers on the 80 swap.

That box looks big , but badass .How's it thump ?
Box isn't that big. Just looks big with the beauty panels. It's an sq set up. I ended up hitting 145db

Impressed. Subbing.

Interesting in hearing more about the brake setup. How difficult is it to get the z06 calipers on there? Thats not a cheap setup!

Silveradoss forum has a write up. Should be sweet when done. Cost is about $2500-$3000 for front and rear
