De-Whippling

I haven't posted up in a while, but I thought I'd let you guys know that my truck is being put back to N/A tomorrow.

I haven't driven an N/A vehicle in so long I almost don't know what to expect.

It might be the chance some of you have been looking for to get ahead of me on the strip. (grin)

I'll be around. My new neighbor just bought one of the new Jeep SRT8 things. He is dying to take it to the track so we are planning on going in the next couple of weeks. I'll keep you guys posted.

All is well. We are in downtown Austin now instead of Round Rock.

Mostly because I keep blowing transmissions and I hate buying new ones. I just want the truck to last for a little while without having to put any more $ in it.

It will still have the LQ4 in it, and I installed a Z06 cam today when I removed the whipple. It should still run pretty well.

All you need is an FLT trans. My mechanic road with me the other day and was amazed that I had not blown the trans already.FLT is the way to go.

wow I totally missed this post.. im sure your truck will still run strong, and pretty soon I bet you will go back with some kind of forced induction. Its like a drug. I have yet to experience but when I do i wont want anything else..

The truck is a 2000 GMC. The whipple is an older model that was re-conditioned in 2005.
