Hello guys, hows it going? Happy new years. Just a quick introduction. I'm Travis, I drive a 1999 2dr 4x4 Tahoe. Tearing the terrain up in central California. Ive been through Hell and back with my rig but in the end it is worth the sweat, the multiple days on the ground, the hundreds of cuts and all the hard work Ive put in. This 99 is stock riding height. I built my own 383 stroker after I threw a rod out the oil pan. Im running a 4 bolt main block with a eagle rotating assembly from summit racing. The transmission went out so I found a affordable shop in town and had them drop in a stage 2 shift kit. I also dropped the rear "POS" rear end and dropped a 14 bolt. Being 19 years old building your own engine having the amazing power under your feet is the best feeling I have ever had.
I'd like to meet some of you guys so dont be a stranger!:fishing1:
