New guy from Texas

[Bandit12]

Hi everyone. After my 96 GMC got totaled several months ago I replaced it with another GMC. This time with a 01 SWB SLE. Still stock so far, with the exception of a leveling kit which was on it when I bought it.

I was already a fan of the LS engines and really wanted my next truck to be LS equiped. Although my little 4.8 doesn't tow as well as my old 5.7 vortech(not as much low end torque) I have really enjoyed it so far. While looking for info for a 6.0 or 5.3 swap, I found this site. Been reading and learning ever since. Thanks for a great site!

Thanks. About 1 hr west on IH 10 from SA, small town of Center Point(near Kerrville). Do you still have those SS wheels for sale?

Thanks. I have been thinking of starting with a set of long tubes and muffler, since whatever I do with exhaust I can use with a 6.0 or 5.3 swap later on. Got to get tires first though, getting thin.
