Re: The 6.0 Silverado Build

Finally some more progress. I am taking the truck tomorrow morning to have the exhaust put on it. He's running 3 inch with an X pipe and Flowmasters with tail pipes exiting just at the rear bumper. I will try to get some good pics of it for you guys too! I also got some of the interior wiring taken care of so it's still inching closer and closer. Now just to decide what to do with the CCSB!

Re: The 6.0 Silverado Build

Finally got the truck out of hibernation this morning and ready to go to the shop for exhaust. Took a few pics for fun and put my old tag on just for the photo op.

How did the exhaust turn out? The guys at Henry's do nice work. They have helped out a few times.

Re: The 6.0 Silverado Build

Well, since you asked. The guy at the exhaust shop was really cool to deal with and we got to chatting about the truck and a few other things when I dropped it off Thursday. He told me it would be ready by Friday end of day. I told him that was cool and I would come up first thing Saturday morning, take exhaust pics on the lift and and load it up. Well, I guess he forgot to tell me but they changed their hours and they are no longer open Saturdays!!! I showed up there first thing this morning with my wife and little one to find the shop pitch black and locked down with the shorty sitting pretty in the bay. Guess I'll be there after work Monday to pick it up.

Re: The 6.0 Silverado Build

I went down to the exhaust shop Friday to pick up the exhaust tip I ordered for my TBSS. The truck is looking good man. I didn't get a chance to see the exhaust. I caught them just before they closed. They did the exhaust on my buddies blue shortbed. Very cool people. Now go get it and lets see some pics!
