Looks really good Tony. Only thing I am not feeling is the large slotted brakes. I think cross drilled would have really made them "pop" more. But the execution is awesome!

as wilwood will tell you and as i have seen. cross drilled stops worse and less surface area.

I'm sure of that. Each has it's benefits, but you're not building a canyon carver. Lol. Looks-wise I'm digging the drilled and slotted.

Get your blower yet? :D

i want the truck to stop better not look cool. Also as wilwood said the drilled ones warp easier.

Not doing a blower or long tubes. im doing a 416 stroker motor for my ctsv and also prob doing a 416 on a 200 shot for my trailblazer ss.

There is no use to make this truck faster ill just tune it.

Tony,

When I blow out my candles for my birthday this year I am going to wish I could be you if only for a day.

lol candles.

My union job gave us a raise so might as well spend it now lol

I honestly might do 3.73 gears in the escalade will be better for towing. Just driving the truck i dont feel like messing with other stuff. I will be doing the lt1z tune also.
