Hey guys been out of the scene for a few years now,figured I would check in with some updates and pics.
She is still running strong with the TT LS,putting a ton of miles on every summer,haven't been down the 1320 in a few years kinda out of that scene as well.Over last winter I installed C6 Z06 brakes with SSBC 2 piece rotors,stops on a dime now,also took the opportunity to get a set of C6 ZR1 wheels,19x12 out back and 18x9 in front running steam roller 345's out back and 255's up front tracks really well a bit traction limited tho

Truck looks phenomenal,in my opinoin...

there is an extensive post on the entire build on this site,once again do a search.It drives awesome had a few issues when it first was done the worst being crazy torque steer,which I remedied by installing rack and pinion steering,other than that it has been very problem free for the last 15k miles,drive it almost daily in the summer 100 miles round trip to work and back,really have no complaints-thanks

Ive tried several times to get a good pic of the rear tires,but the shadows that are cast cause it to not come out too well-Ill try one more time tomorrow before it gets put in storage for the year

I see you changed your intake manifold setup, any reason and what are the pros and cons for both?

Re: Haven't posted in a while,new look and upgrades(pics)

Beautiful setup!!

no reason other than cosmetics,it fills up the engine bay and looks much nicer,I did a lot of work the this one,smoothed all the Edelbrock BS that was on it,cut off the tabs that were there for the throttle cable mount,welded and smoothed some of the other mounting tabs that were on it,then had it painted the cladding color and the "typhoon" machined in it.All said and done it made the exact same power

What does that thing sound like goin' down the road? With you foot in it?

Beautiful setup!!

its really quiet under normal driving,but at full boogie its very noticeable,I run a 4" MSRB diesel muffler and then a 4" tail pipe all the way out the back,in my opinion it sounds awesome,thanks for the compliments:tup:
