    Demodding and Upgrading

    Well i dont know what has gotten into me lately, but i just am not happy with the truck. I dont know exactly what it is. So my plan is to reinstall the old cam, springs, retainers. Leave the new rockers, has a new timing chain, leave the headers on there for now. Or am i better off trying to sell it modded out? i have all the parts i have ever taken off, i am thinking that i will sell the truck better back to "stock" and then be able to sell the performance parts off seperately.

    My plan is to purchase an 04+ Duramax as my DD truck / Plow truck, and at the same time purchase a 99+ SCSB without a motor or trans, and basically just start from sratch on a project truck.

    What do you guys think?

    The project truck is gonna be a 6.0L and either have a nice turbo setup or a really big set of bottles in the back.

    So i am thinking i can get about 7k for my truck or a little more.

    Only an idiot would ditch a Chevy for a Ford...

    Oh wait.... I did, but my excuse is I couldn't find a Cobalt SS in my price range.... Ya that's it.
