Re: Dirty Dianah (No)... Bagged 72 Stepside/LSx/T56



Look ma! Clean underhood. Wires go where they belong. Nice and neat.



Got bored and wrote "SLOW and LOW" on the side (front and rear). The ricers seemed to think this truck could not move. Boy what a surprise they got when they saw it lift up and actually leave them behind. Ricers include domestics too. 327/400 in this truck was not bad. But at this point, I decided I wanted more. I loved the sound the long tube headers gave me...the torque and punch that is in the M5 and the attitude the truck would have when I was finished. At this point, I decided it was time to go hard. Determine how much power I wanted (I knew a minimum of 400HP was necessary, even in my light truck), and that I wanted a stick...I love the sound it makes when running through the gears and letting off. Yup. MY first intention was 383 stroker crate motor...440HP/450TQ and figure out the tranny....I was leaning towards the TKO600...
