Sup bro

Awesome, not to hijack but here is my Silverado build http://www.silveradosierra.com/vortec-5-3l-v8/ati-procharger-engine-build-t17320.html

I laughed out loud seeing the kitchen table. Your going to love it. I never did get the the procharger, bought a SL600 merc to hotrod...

Sub'd on this build for sure... Excited to see this come together.

LGSONE

That's awesome, How is she running?

Nice man. Can't wait to see the finished product bro

Thanks bro, Thanks for answering a few question for me




I just talked to the Machine Shop and it looks like sometime mid march they could start the machine work, grrrr they are backed up.

My LS Valve Lifter Guides (1259536) have arrived and my OIL PRESSURE SENSOR SWITCH GM (12616646)


I also went ahead and bought
Volant RAM Cool Air Scoops (35853) (all about maximizing my setup)
This will allow fresh air from the outside hopefully helping me with my IAT'S and help it recover faster on Wide open Throttle


also a Bosch OEM - Auxiliary Water Pump for the supercharger


and plastic dip my Supercharger Reservoir

undecided about using all my old sensors, they were working fine before the removal of engine What do you guys think?


here are my knock sensors

toss them, never put a weak link into a new build.
clean them up and sell them.

How much do you think these are worth used?

Thanks Man, but no need to be jealous im sure you could set some performance goals just takes a ambition and motivation and lots of money lol. I love your Denali one of the cleanest OEM ones around.

Thanks a bunch for the kind words.....I definitely get the performance itch more often than not and hopefully one day will be able to do FI. I'll be keeping an eye on this for sure. I'd love to make mine a sleeper....my previous SUV stood out to much lol

How did you like the SRT8 compare to your Denali? I've always liked the SRT8's infact i was looking to buy one vs the TBSS.

Thx. I certainly can appreciate the talent, technical ability and awesome skill set that it takes to do this sort of build. Hats off and cannot wait to see this baby run.
