ChevyLee--
Here is one. DOOOOOO IT!
Thanks Tyler i will look into that, its a great deal
EDIT: that thing looks thrashed :cry: im gunna keep my eye on it also this 8.1 i found
Ah, throw some scrubbing bubbles/engine degreaser on there and it will look like new!!! It looks like it has been sitting in a yard somewhere--hence the layer of dust under the engine bay... An 8.1L might be too much for your truck to handle...IMO...
Cedar Park here dude........
south austin over here. welcome to the site!
thanksQuote:

:) thanks i have been deciding my options for about 2 yrs now. i almost sold my truck to get a black ss silverado. it would be the only truck i sell mine for. and i get a lot of offers. about two weeks ago just walking into my house some guy pulled up and asked if my truck was for sale i said how much, he said 12k cash i was like :eek: thats a down payment on a ss silverado :( but i love my color and the singel cab so im just gunna put a v8 in it, if it goes well i keep it if not i sell :whack:Quote:

:rofl: yea they did. i luv my truck :DQuote:

Welocme to the site :cool:
i would definately go 6.0 and not with the 8.1
im currently getting a 6.0 in my 96 gmc also. i didnt want to get into payments anymore and nelson performance has been really great with giving me an awesome deal on everything.
thanks and same i don't want to buy a new truck just for the v8 then have to wait a few yrs to start working on it :( im talking with Allen now about what i can do, yayQuote:
