Florida NewB

I was just searching for a wideband and stumbled onto the site. I'm over on performancetrucks.net a lot but I'll try to stop in more often. I have a 2002 Chevy Silvo with a Sierra front end. I'll put up some pics soon

Hmmm... a Chevy with a GMC front end... If you were doing a new front clip, why not do something like an Escalade front end? Pics????

I have been shopping around and I think I'll probably end up buying an LC1, PM me if you know where I can get a good price on one. Cadillac front end?:thumbdown:

Dude--that shaker hood is pretty damn sweet! For reals...it reminds me of the 1978 T/A W72 optioned 6.6L hood... "Eastbound and Down, loaded up and truckin', we gonna do what they say can't be done..."

My favorite thing about the truck is no body notices the grill.:point: Take a closer look. Once I'm finished with the parts pile in my garage I'm going to fix the front end and paint the truck. I cant find a bumper cover I like so I'd like to keep it the same, go with a painted factory lower valance, Or see if I cant get something like this to work :)

Yea I like it I just dont know if I want to do another front end swap. Another thing is the center grill in the bumper is custom so I would have to live without or make one myself.

There are a couple late model junk yards within an hour of me I just need to break out a phone book and go get a better look at the grill and the back side of the bumper. I bought a LC-1 wideband today:D Now all I need is an inline fuel pump, a fuel pressure gauge, some time to throw my turbo kit on, and alot of time to tune :burnout:
