Just for a little background, building a truck, or buying anything for that matter cost here twice and sometimes triple of the original cost. (only hybrids and Electric cars pays low taxes, you see them here every corner !)Originally Posted by Quik
For this reason, getting the right part every time is not an option. In this matter, Allen has delivered every time. Not only the cost is real high, but the time for getting parts is unbelievable !
And I hate to give away my money, an believe me sometimes I don't know what are Allen winnings, because his prices are most of the times equal or lower to what I search in the internet !!!
This story is just a small sample of a business relationship that was born late 2005 and had grown stronger, and became a friendship.
Another example of that xtra mile, is when he went to a dealer, place the order for a 2010 Camaro SS. He did all the work, took it to his shop, tune it, never used it, and I beg him to take it to a drag strip to have some numbers, but instead, he was more responsibly than me in that matter. HE had to hold the car in his shop taking out usable space to work, because my ship was late !!!!
And sometimes when I read post from weird people that I know Exactly where they came from (Casey rance <turbo00busa@yahoo.com> Tue, Apr 24, 2007 at 6:54 PM

Hey man !! thanks for the pics !! I bought a front mount off of a Corvette they made 740hp with it on a 346 with heads and cam and 14psi of boost ? Anyway I have a Racetronix hot wire system, the turbo is 68-69mm 50mm RaceGate ( came with turbo system ) 38mm blow off valve on the way ... NO camshaft as of yet .. I am also looking at the same fans in summit racing for my truck they seem to look really nice and fit great .. I now have some 42? delphi injectors they are the biggest you can use in a stock truck fuel rail... I got my 3200 converter today i am just waiting on the intercool and pipe and fans... My truck was daily driven with the whipple for over 80,000 miles !! and even with whipples crappy electronics it was a reliable daily driver ... I am pretty scared about the turbo set up but i am really looking forward to being able to run more then twice the boost... I have been thinking about putting 317 heads on my truck to kill some compression.. I guess at that point i should toss in a cam lifters and pushrods... hell thats another 800.00 in the 5.3L but then again i could use that top end package on a much bigger motor just get more camshaft ..... KC)
Just trigger me off, not because Allen is my hero, but because I know he is a Human like all of us, and a great friend.
Enough of Talking about that fat guy...this is my Garage, and soon I'll post the inners of the Camaro 69 with the LSX Project. I know is no truck, but still fun and tech usable experience!!
