    Winter mods..

    Well i know im new on here and photo hosting and all of that hasnt been used but thought id say you guys have inspired some rwhp i want lol Heres the story:

    bought a 2wd 04 rcsb with a 4.8 with 30k, drove it all summer while doing small visuals to it. As it sits, 07 tahoe 20's on 255/35 KDW. 20% tint all the way around, color matched everything, tinted tails and 3rd brake.. now come the fun. I have an 05 SSS interior i will be putting in this winter/ spring. Leather seats and console and cluster mostly. and i've decided that its time to hang with some friends. I have already purchased have sitting at my house TR220/220 112lsa, patriot dual beehive springs, pushrods, k&n 77 series cai, circle d 3000-3200 stall with vette servos in the mail somewhere, transgo hd-2 shift kit. i have 3.73 already, need a lsd and a tune from nelson and i think im close to done. i will be starting the cam and valvetrain swap tonight. already torn motor down. thanks for all the help, i'll ask questions if the run into any problems.. ooo have ceramic coated lt's and ory from pacesetter running thru a single in dual out magnaflow

    Not always true. A 4.10 will help get ur truck up and going better so it may help with mileage.

    Still working on the whole photo hosting thing, but i have a sig pic up from this past summer.. another question, i have printed instructions from ls1tech.com and they are great but what is the thought on the push rod method and whole cam swap. (ie: russian roulette method, magnets, ??)

    Use 5/16 brake line to hold the lifters up.
