Long Time Member First Time Posting

I few people may know me from other websites. I've been on here for a while, but never really posted. I've spent more time than usual over here lately and I figured I'd start posting a bit more over here as well.

My name is Mark. I'm from Dripping Springs Texas near Austin. I drive a 1999 5.3L Cammed Silverado. Right now it's nothing special and probably won't ever be.

I ran a 9.0 at 80.5 MPH in the 1/8th earlier in the month on motor with a 2.2 60'. I'm finishing up with my nitrous install and just had the bottle filled tonight so hopefully I'll have some positive results.

I also have been collecting parts for a front mount build. I have taken many ideas from members off here and eventually I plan to install it on my truck.

Here's a few older pics. Nothing really has changes except for the engine

Don't forget you have a regular cab. Also did you mean 8.3 in the 1/8th? A 7.3 is good for a mid to low 11 second 1/4 mile. I have a good list of supporting mods for the truck. The trap speed is definitely there. I'm going to the 1/8th mile track again this weekend with a few suspension mods and hopefully I'll hit a mid 8.5 and a 7.99999 on nitrous.

I also have a set of 26x11.5x16 e/t streets that so far haven't helped me much at all

The nitrous setup is pieced together:

T61 precision turbo(should make 500 with almost no lag)

Just need a few little things and I want to do the 4l80e swap before I install it.

Thanks and the house is my parents. I'm just a college kid. Sorry to disappoint.

Nice truck. Its the right color, and welcome.

Welcome, truck looks clean. Keep us posted on the build.

Nice to have you here Mark. I think I got some lower control arms from you awhile back. Your truck looks great in the pictures and better in person. Let me know when you go to the track next time.

Welcome Mark Seen you plenty on PT. Nice ride liking the 18' and the stance is perfect

Ah yea I remember. Did you end up getting them to work alright? I never did ask you.

Also, I just got done spraying my 50 shot for the first time. Even for a little 50 shot it was fun as hell.

Nice combo Mark. And surprising, the Titan wheels look pretty good. You truck is gunna scream with that turbo on there.
