Waiting for a new video. still admire your ride

thanks bud. I do need to get some new videos soon. Im in the process of moving so things are busy right now. I also need to replace my pass front hub bearing too. But other than that she is still hitting hard. Last night I finally got to put about 5 lengths on the new Escalade that wanted to play, and we were pulling up hill. My truck just feels good and had so much more left, it handles well especially lowered. Im about to upgrade both sway-bars soon for better handling. The tires just hugs the ground tight with the track width, traction can be had on a good launch.

Im going to stay the Procharger route after heavy consideration. Its like insurance and HP I can always put on any LS engine. The D1 will compliment my 4000 stall and 4.88 gears and keep the PSI high. Top end should be insane.

also I was going to stick with my original plan L92 heads, camed, and 102mm TB with intake. due to the fact, Im updating to Ls7 Lifters just for the assurance.

All out performance this go around.. she sits low like 2/4 low. And may get a lil lower.
Looks good still..

Tires, are Goodyear street tires, 265/50/20 behind the 4.88s. Not the best pics, but when I do get her back out she will be a beast....

Nice! Basically have the same mods as I. But I went with the 219/227 .607/.614 112LSA which is the little brother of your cam. I need a converter though.
