Re: Well it's taken 4 years but just about finished

Thanks guys,
Engine is a 96/02 Vortec L31R with
1987-90 Big block TBI using marine injectors
Edelbrock intake with TBI to 4bbl adaptor
With a different cam, I’ll try and post pic of spec sheet
Re chipped computer
Transmission is a fully rebuilt 700R
Has made one hell of a difference to the performance of truck (get up and go) and sounds NICE...

At least? Your implying that A: the rest of the truck is not agreeable and thats the only nice thing about it and B: dropped is not sweet looking, which of course it is.

OP- truck looks much better these days! Gotta say I like the second set of rims best though.

yep. not everybody's taste, as you can tell from the pic.
the only that's implied is what you just did.
