prestinb Posted April 12, 2012 Report Share Posted April 12, 2012 (edited) I thought I would establish an official build thread for my truck. This will be a late start as the build is essentially being wrapped up but hopefully it will provide helpful information. Throughout this project I have been working exclusively with Modern Muscle and Tony Mamo. Modern Muscle got me started with the custom cam / stall and has done all of the installation work. They have a clean, professional shop with great attention to detail. Additionally, Tony Mamo provided me with a level of support, knowledge, and personal service that is hard to find these days. He always seemed to be available when I needed to ask questions...no matter how insignificant. And now for the chronological steps: 2006 GMC VMAX 2WD 6.0 LQ9, 3/4 Drop, 4.56 Gears, 33" Tire, Zippy Shift Kit, Billet Servos, Dynatech LT Headers, No Cats, Magnaflow Cat-Back, K&N CAI Added the following: 3000 Stall, Custom Cam - 235/239 .621/.624 112 +3, Custom Tune Results: Added the following: Fast 102mm LSXRT Intake (Custom Porting by Tony Mamo) NW 102mm TB Fast LSXRT Fuel Rail Kit Bosch Flow Matched 42# @ 3 bar injectors X-Link 2.1 Custom CAI Corsa Sport Cat-Back Re-Tuned...

Tylur06SS Posted April 19, 2012 Report Share Posted April 19, 2012 very impressive so about how deep is your bank account into this? i like this setup alot Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shadowsniper3006 Posted April 19, 2012 Report Share Posted April 19, 2012 (edited) Great job man, this truck should have no problem laying down a 12 second stock cubic inch pass. That long runner intake really tamed that cam down up top, looks like a very strong truck that will still have decent shift points Edited April 19, 2012 by shadowsniper3006 (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
