I drove my Silverado today after having it at the dealer Friday for new trans lines, I was getting on The freeway and seen giant white puffs behind me, I knew right away what it was, freaking line came out or broke or something whole undercarriage looks like it took a bath in trans fluid, luckily I caught it right away I managed to get it parked right when it started to not want to go
I bet a quick connect popped loose. That also happened to me, just as I was exiting the freeway. A dude pulled up next to me and let me know something happened. We were both lucky Wes.

ya I reached down by the engine mount and one of the lines I think the upper one was flopping around a lot so that had to be it I tried to stick my phone up there where the lines go in to take a picture but couldnt quit get the right angle but man it sure looks like the truck took a bath in it, it's everywhere big mess.

That was fast, ordered over the weekend.
It comes with 1/2" QDC (quick disconnect) fittings but I havent really been able to find out much about fittings available. seems they are an oem type connection but the google returns abunch or air or hydraulic line fittings. I ordered -8orb x -10an adapter for feed and -8an x -8an for return anyway.

Couple friends headed out to track Friday, figured I'd tag along...maybe run the 1/8 just to see how she did. Was fighting with getting it to shift out of first. Actually worked out good...local shop there seen me struggling and made a couple quick changes in the tune :lol:

Anyway...new personal best letting out at the 660? Should be pretty quick.
10-11* of timing...soft launch, 6lb wastegate spring, log shows 8-9lbs of boost,93oct...just a 1.8 60' and this would have been a 11 sec run probably

this was with stock flex pump and 1200cc injectors, no fuel pump upgrade yet. afr stayed in the bottom 12s, probably could have let it hang out a little further but playing it safe,
