Whats up; new owner of a 2005 Silverado Performance edition 6.0 2wd. Less than 1000 miles on the truck so far, and I have just ordered the STS turbo kit with the GT67 turbo upgrade. I'm going to try and get base et's this week so I have a before and after comparison... cant wait to see what this does for my truck..

Are those trucks 1500 or 2500. I have not heard of any 1500 2wd swb 1500 with 6.0L if they are that is a good starting platform to build yourself a badasssss truck. Your getting yourself some good go-fast goodies. That truck come with 4L80 or 4L60. Welcome to the forum man.

Yeah the truck is rare around here; its a 1500 2wd. Its funny because when I was shopping around, I went to another dealer my uncle works at as a parts manager to see if I could get a better deal on my trade (an 04 Forester turbo). When the bone breath salesman gave me a figure on a basically stripped down 5.3 silverado in a god-awful color, I laughed and told him I could get the 6.0 Performance edition for $17 more a month. Then he told me that the truck I was talking about doesn't exist. He told me its an HD 2500. So I didnt argue with him any further about it, but when I bought it I stopped by. I said come take a look at the truck that doesnt exist. It was satisfying. As far as the trans, I think its the 4l60e, but it said heavy duty trans on the window sticker...
Kit should be here friday and be going on next week...

Guy on another forum has that set up and he said his tranny is the 65. Check your RPO's, good thing to know.
Welcome
welcome aboard, those are some sweet trucks
thanks for the welcome; yeah I dont know which trans it is, I'll figure it out. The truck feels pretty good stock, turbo should really make a difference. I cant really afford it, but thats where the ol' credit card comes in... work a few extra days here and there...its worth it

I'd really like some info to. I didn't know these existed. I wanted a Texas truck until I saw they were 2wd SS's. Thanks
