  1. http://www.milandragway.com/racing-schedule lots of dates left at milan...dont know about the weather 10-24 is the final wed TnT...I would guess the most runs We could meet in the city and have dinner???
  2. I can be convinced Its nice and cold for a track visit. Or meet up at a resturant/dinner/drinks???
  3. I thought there were camaro injectors that above all else have good data?? I think they are a little bigger than the 42's guys normally run. IMO I would get 60's and then you 'could' run e85...but with 42's/stock pump I know I can't try to run e85 at the max.
  4. I dont know how I feel about such a sweet ride basterdized with turbos...Is it my old thinking they could have 'hid' 1000hp by using 2300 parts/Ls7...and still keep the factory engine cover. I like the power but the looks say pull me over!
  5. get er done! I got stock replacement/aftermarket parts. Spent like $!50 and threw new rotors and pads on...caught the pass side after it lost all the pads down to the rivits I knew it was making a funny sound. Only extra was I painted the rotors flat black befor intall so I hope they stay a little cleaner. ANd I let my stepson drive her for the first time solo...he was impressed. Good times.
  6. Hey guys I need to overhaul my rear brakes and dont want to blow the bank but might be consider affordable upgrades, ie close out eradispeed??? Please post up any good deals for a rear kit, I usually look here but the last rear kit got sold pretty quick... thanks -joe
  7. I see it all the time Bob, Drive down 14mile rd and its like people are in such a rush...then its some teen girl flicking you off b/c you are following the limit.
  8. One of the turbo builder mounts them below the exhaust manifold, kind of low...but heat rises and he say they do fine there. Just another idea, pic is floating around....
  9. I think I am out, ferndale got me with a few tickets so I am taxed...funny how its on the oppsite side of their jurisdiction, like ferndale would be pissed if a Detroit officer tried to hid on their side and ticket rant off be safe guys the local LEO's are out collecting...
  10. I say we try to meet more north and drive south...that would be oppsite of what most do and might get us less traffic. The other hang out is at the shell thats futher north, and everyone always says pontiac is the place to be, being they are reportedly more relaxed.
  11. sweet, welcome. Now I'll put mine out there
  12. BUMP. I am down for a thursday cruise out...dont know who's all going to be where.
  13. What did you log?? just pulling the codes is not going to help. YOu could have them look at the MAF readings? See if its getting the full amount of timing at the spots? You could have timing pulled and that would feel flat, your throttle position would not matter if timing is getting pulled out. Does the truck have a tune?? The stock tune delays the PE...and some other things that make the trucks feel down on power?? good luck, but I would try to not start replacing parts with out a plan, ie you could fix something that would make truck run better but not fix the problem only to rear its ulgy head later.
  14. JFY SS collection I know this is floating around but oh well http://www.gmheritagecenter.com/gm-heritage-archive/docs/Silverado/2003-Chevrolet-Silverado-SS.pdf main page: alot more cars listed JFYI http://www.gmheritagecenter.com/gm-heritage-archive/vehicle-information-kits.html
  15. find someone to log what the truck is doing and it should give you the info you need so you are not just throwing parts at it. I wonder if its the cats?
  16. I bet Zippy has some good VE tables that he uses, so I would not be too worried as long as you tell him what you have. IMO untill you get a live tune there will always be some left on the table to protect your truck.
  17. I see the good builders using lifter tray mods and older style steam ports on the heads to keep hot spots off #7...I know there are other LSx specific building tips
  18. Buick Grand National Typhoon/Scylone 94-96 Impala SS (had a 96, miss that car)
  19. sorry for the late clean up in asle two...as you were
  20. did they have alot of TBSS? How hot was it at the track?
  21. screw driver into lock cylinerd on drivers door. everything in there is plastic and easy to either dislodge the lock cylinder or the door handle. I was lucky they were good and did not damage the door paint or handle. I am gonna pull it apart and make a plate and secure the lock cylinder with a metal hose clamp...check out jimmyjammers site, informative and scary how easy these trucks are to get in. I am also considering a new alarm that is not controlled by the door locks. I am going thru my connection to see if I can find an officer who will kick some ass...but mostly trying to get over it! its a big downer to feel violated. thanks again guys, I knew you would understand.
  22. we tracked her Ipad with my iphone and the track my iphone app...got a GPS location about 10 blocks away, found my kids bag on the curb near where I got a ping for the divice. I uderstand what is legal for police to do...and I am not wanting to violate anyone else but this seemed like an easy win for the police. But we have had alot of budget reduction in our police force in the city so I know that property is not important. Tring to move past it, for the kids more than anything. All their swimming trunks were stolen and they were sad Got to get some jimmyjammers put on the truck so its not so easy to get into, I am so glad they did not steal the entire truck. I know I could get ghetto as hell and go to the house but too many people get shot in detroit... thanks for the support guys
