Nice. I have the Wilkes Performance heads on my avalanche. @Dantheman1540 just got a set of 243s done by them as well. So far, so good.

Good luck with the build!

Thank you. And to think all started with a bad lifter. Haha that's good news the head definitely looked good to me visual and flow numbers.

Well all said and done I will only be into the kit for just under $1500; the Wilwood kit for the 16" rotors was going to be about $2500

Calipers with hardware kit - $950
Rotors - $220
Adapters - $195
Pads - $50
Banjo bolts/washers - $10

Did you end up getting braided lines for your brakes or are you going to wait on the lines for now?

Well I cooled off and took'er for a rip.

It's 90+* right now and ripped off a 14sec 1/4 mile......spinning through first. Trans tune still needs some serious work. With this build, converter and gears I should be ripping off a 4.8-5.0 sec 0-60. Its falling on its face til I hit 4500 rpm from a dig or even when I bring it up to 2800 rpm on the converter

So how accurate is whatever device you're using as a performance meter? Have you ran it at a track with this meter at the same time to compare accuracy?

I used to have a GtechPro, the first model that looked like a radar detector, back in the mid-late 90s (before smartphones and gps), and it was pretty accurate as long as you had the correct vehicle weight entered. It was about 3 tenths and 5 mph off in the 1/4 pretty constantly.

Still curious about what equipment your using for this

Rear bumper rebuild and paint complete on the Silverado, money shot.

Ordered and PAID for my tires on 6/6 with an expected shipping date of 7/27.
Just got an email with an updated ship date of 8/20.
It's been so long now, they dropped the price $20 a tire, doubt they'll refund the difference when they finally ship.
Sure glad I ordered these long before desert season...that wait time is getting ridiculous.
Not sure if this particular line of tires are made in the USA or overseas.
