    Diesel Camino?

    Had a '65 Elky... I sold it and still kick myself for doing it. Always wanted to drop a 6.6 into it. Now looking for Chevelle wagons... ultimate touring car. :D

    7/18/10 Are diesels still worth the extra money?

    I sure as shit ain't putting my dump trailer behind a gasser. With a 3800lb empty weight, you can guess what it'll gross out at and as good as the new gassers are getting, I don't think they have the balls to haul that. Like truckie said, I love driving it, sound of it, mileage and the fact...

    Catalytic converter photos

    When you pull it off and see a 150* drop in EGT's, and a noticeable increase in pedal response, I think it's safe to assume that it's pretty restrictive. :D I'd cut mine apart except I have to put it back on once a year to smog it for my registration.

    Anyone ever have a Optima Battery leak?

    I've gone through 8 AC Delco batteries in 2 trucks in 3 years. Pieces of worthless shit would be an understatement.... they refused warranty because they said heat killed it. No f***in shit genius, this is vegas, but your warranty does state 3 yr free replacement. Anyway, I run redtop...

    duramax conversion

    LLY will have a FICM mounted on the valve cover. LBZ and up will not. If no one has screwed with the motor/trans combo, the LLY will have the 5 spd behind. Like Jones said, you'll need the harnesses, ECM, TCM, etc to make it work. Not sure if the throttle pedal will need to be replaced or not.

    fuel mileage is horrible

    I was getting that for a while too... found out if I back it down from 120 to 80mph, I could climb to ~15mpg. Usually don't see more than that since my truck is always around 8500lbs with 100lbs of wheel/tire on each corner. My DIC tells me I'm getting 22.1 though ):h .... Those POS never work...

    If you can't win with power.....

    gettin there :D .... converter definitely feels a little looser now.... My sister tried that in San Diego. Big tune, 4th gear, took a C6 (not a Z06) from 55-85..... Pretty sure he didn't downshift though. Funnier than shit to see his face though when he rolls by and he sees its a chick...

    If you can't win with power.....

    Ever sat in a duramax with a 500+ hp and a 4wd boosted launch?? ..... he either had traction control off, no traction control at all, or was just a dumbass, because he was spinning the whole time. Re read the post. I know I would have gotten worked..... but for the couple seconds we ran, I...

    If you can't win with power.....

    ....do it with intimidation. Got a C6 Z06 saturday. Saw him coming up behind me in the right lane, had just enough time to get it into 4 hi before stopping at the light. Switch the DSP to the big tune, gave it about 23-2400 rpm and let it eat on the green. I don't know if he dumped the...

    lly exhaust

    Always a plus. Most right now get a window high blanket squirting out from under the truck..... course the whole underside now looks like a giant oreo from all the soot.... :D

    lly exhaust

    lol. The only thing that gets annoying is the back window is buried in soot. Going back to a 5" that at least passes the bed :D
