I don't think I can post any links bc they are not a forum sponsor here but just search for "Elite Engineering Catch Can"....Their catch cans are machined and assembled in the USA, one of the best quality catch cans you can buy IMO

How are the ppv bump stops different from reg bump stops?

I would guess they are a little shorter but Im not really sure, I ordered part 15200997 and in the description is says "2wd, with police pkg. 4wd, with police pkg."....even if they are the same as what I already had on there they were only like $20 and Im sure the stockers could use replacing

ok so as promised here is a 20-75 WOT clip....I don't think Ive mentioned that my Avalanche is 2wd w stock 6l80e and stock 3.42 gears....the exhaust is a little raspy at WOT, gonna throw in a Borla resonator before the muffler and hopefully that cures it...

well the TVS1900 is on the way but Im not sure when im gonna install it yet...Im gonna pulley down immediately and I wanna order an Alkyconrtol Meth Injection system and some Injector Dynamics Injectors, hopefully I won't have to upgrade the fuel pump but time will tell....

In the mean time....

got some new wheels tonight...I wanted a light weight wheel and these popped up on Craigslist for a good deal...some 3 Piece CCWs Classic 5's...18x9 and 18x10...gonna run some Mickey Thompson 30"x12.00" which are equal to a 305/50R18...stock 275/55R20 are 31.9" tall so will only be a 1" drop from the tires and then I will also be installing the Tahoe PPV rear springs and removing the .5" spacer in the front so total drop with suspension changes and the new wheels and tires will be 1.5/2.75...fronts weigh 24lbs each and rears 25.2lbs each......tires weigh 36lbs each..should be a nice decrease in rotating weight...
