now thats a sick deal


as far as the list, I think everything that mike mentioned was included on the list. it was particular to certain brands like superchip as opposed to a custom chip from somewhere else

I just can't see you having a truck that you know can go a lot faster and NOT doing it. You will give in, the truck will convince you that she wants to go faster

Yes they fixed the spark plug issue with new heads this year.

6lb pulley and chip is good for mid 12s.... But Id rather put the money into the TTA.

I am looking for a good open car trailer if anyone has any leads or contacts for me.

That won't be out until at least 2005 and then you can tack on another 10K to the price.

No thanks

yeah the silverado SS does get owned by both the new hemi ram and the lightning, however the silverado SS regular cab is supposed to be more performance oriented, but i doubt anywhere near the others
