my truck is getting there.....

BigdaddyDupree · 07-02-2011, 11:16 PM

Well as many of ya know my truck has been devil spawn for three years now and not real sure if its right now. lol heres my story

bought the truck from hal about three years ago. i was wanting a street truck and he was in a bind needing to sell so i took a leap in the fire. It caught my eye and i honestly didnt know what kind of addiction i bought. the truck had a steel headed 355 with a stock 700 r4 stock one wheel peel rear with nice wheels n shiny paint. damn you hal. the truck had one seat and shaved doors. i got locked out more then you could imagine. I got to drive the truck and decided i wanted faster and that a s10 with a sbc was too normal so i wanted LS. bought a 5.3 and me n ray ray went to town

well we ran the truck for a lil while ironing out issues. and then i decided i wanted some nitrous. and then parts started to break. like the rear end.

so we put a 9" in it, stock legnth with 33 spline mosers, 4.11 and a spool with disk brakes yo. then i took the truck to automotive solutions and had a cage put in it

and also upgraded the fuel system to a 15 gallon cell and a -8an return style fuel system

well the truck always had oil pressure issues, well it didnt have oil pressure and figured out why

so i decided to put another 5.3 in with a bigger cam and changed up my setup a little. well and we repainted it and fixed the dent and changed up the swagga
