Wow, how have I not seen this build yet? Looks great man.

Re: Budget Buster 68 C10 swb fleetside
 

thanks guys. I have been driving the truck all this week trying to work the bugs out. Need to tune it. I have an appointment for the 30th for the dyno and with the tuner that did my Chevelle. It is running but I don't think the coverter is locking up as I am turning about 26-2700 rpm's at 60 mph and 3000+ rpm at 70 mph. I am running a 12 bolt with 373 gears and in my Chevelle I have a 9" with a 370 gear and it turns about 1900 rpm at 70 mph. Both vehicles have 4L80e tranny's. Also when I am idling, the truck feels like it is surging front to back real bad and warm starts are hard. I bleieve all of this can be fixed when we do the dyno tune. A/C is working Great! Stereo Kicks butt and the ride is nice. I will send some pictures tomorrow morning

Hows the exhaust sound? I'm doing a 5.3 conversion and keep hearing people talk about H pipe and X pipe. My exhaust guy recommended just running 3" pipe with magnaflows.

Re: Budget Buster 68 C10 swb fleetside
 

Exhaust sounds great! I have 3" with Magnaflow mufflers. There really isn't enough room to install an x pipe or even an H pipe unless you just want to weld everything together. We did my so that it can come out if needed. I wish I could have the X pipe though. I have the same 3" with Magnaflows on my Chevelle with an X and I like the sound more as it seems smoother. The truck does sound pretty damn nice though!

Nicely done. Any interior shots??

Re: Budget Buster 68 C10 swb fleetside
 

Could there be a possible sound clip or short video of the exhaust. I know its kind of a PITA but I sure would apreciate it. There is a guy here that has the X pipe (ackattack) and another with the H pipe (67C10BUB) I think they are running 2" pipe though.

Re: Budget Buster 68 C10 swb fleetside

Re: Budget Buster 68 C10 swb fleetside
 

Thanks Guys! I will try to get some interior photos this weekend as well as a sound clip of the exhaust.

Really and nice show and I plan to debut my truck at this show! So come on guys........lets bring out the trucks!
