Re: ** YOUNG FRANKENSTEIN ** The truck Chevrolet should have built.
I am making preparations to go to the Pigeon Forge Spring Grand Rod Run. A research trip if you will. Does that count for anything?

Re: ** YOUNG FRANKENSTEIN ** The truck Chevrolet should have built.
I have been doing a little more research on my engine and found a Car Craft article about the best flowing exhaust manifolds for LS engines.
http://www.carcraft.com/techarticles.../photo_03.html I don't want headers for many reasons - cost, heat, noise, poor quality, etc. and after reading this article I am totally sold on these 2004 -2006 GTO LS1 manifolds. The article calls them Corvette manifolds, but is wrong if you look at the ones pictured - they do mention once they are from a GTO. Anyway, they are within 3 or 4 HP and torque of headers, and 9 HP and Torque better than the next best factory exhaust manifold, Camaro style. I am sure the truck ones I have are probably a little worse than that. I'm on the hunt now for some GTO take offs. Maybe $30 to $50 bucks. Way less than headers and nearly the same performance. Hoping they will fit. Looks like I may have to do my exhaust a third time! It won't be too bad though.

Re: ** YOUNG FRANKENSTEIN ** The truck Chevrolet should have built.
My wife LOVES this truck! I think this board is gonna save me a boat load on paint! I already don't have to worry about chrome rims, she's not a fan of bling.

Re: ** YOUNG FRANKENSTEIN ** The truck Chevrolet should have built.
I like that topless burb....maybe they couldn't figure out how to add the 4th door, so they just cut the top off
That front marker light looks odd on that yellow 68

Re: ** YOUNG FRANKENSTEIN ** The truck Chevrolet should have built.
A couple of sketchy items.
Seat mount could use a little lateral strengthening. Maybe?? Explosion proof gas filler tube mounting location.
