how did you mount the escalade third brake light to your glass?

you have to get the Escalade glass with the holes in it. I think the 05-06 Tahoe LT had holes in it for a black spoiler as well.

 

[jdpber]

^^ correct

the Escalade glass has 3 mounting holes the Tahoe has 2 and even those two don't line up, they are off by about half an inch, i learned the hard way. I did a thread about it like 6 months ago if i recall, after all said and done i had to buy a new glass to make mine fit


MY LS2 Throttle body just arrived, I hopefully i can install all of this in about 2-3 weeks and get a retuned.

 

[Travieso]

90mm LS2 Throttle body
90mm Magnuson Inlet

Looking good man.

 

[Travieso]

Whipple 2.3 time lol

Yes eventually when I get a 408 ci

Looking good man.

Thanks bro,

Little update truck is running rich with idling problems, that's due to it not being tuned properly. I'll tell you this though I went WOT and the ass got loosed and it chirped second gear my top end also got significantly better my iat's are much better now also. Overall a good upgrade for the supercharger

 

[Travieso]

did some weight reduction, let's hope i dont get a flat, this 16" Spare tire wasn't even functional to even get started, i needed 17 inch to clear the front drop spindles anyways, if i do go on long trips i will carry a 20"+ Spare

Sick Whip! Do you do any internal engine mods to go with that supercharger? I know you did cam and springs. What about pistons, rods, crank...etc.??

Also, how many miles are on the ticker?

thanks man, sorry i took long replying back, lol im hardly on here..

No Internal Engine mods just a little port and polish heads, and aftermarket timing chain, other then the cam and aftermarket springs, the truck got dyno'ed recently and it made 485 Horse Power and 495 Torque with about 10 pounds of boost

 

[Tahoewhat]
