Default S B0MB 04 Silverado Build

I didnt even know til today, that this website had a truck specific section.

So with that said a lil details and info.
My goal with the truck is to have a drag street track flying mile and maybe something that can kind of corner . And still act as a truck haul things etc

Anyhow it started out as a V6 5 speed which i bought in mid 07. By the end of the year it had an aluminum headed BBC in it. Then due to the fine economy I did some horse trading etc and took a change in employment. But then i got a good deal on a couple of 8.1's so I put the 8.1 in it. Fiddle with it while being in the army. And then i started getting crazy with it.

Currently the truck has a single turbo 505 BBC Viperized faceplated t56 3.42 posi (Got a 14 bolt 10.5 to replace it) C6 Zo6 Brakes all the way around. 15 inch rotors front 14 inch rear. Full ridetech air ride. Moved gas tank behind the axle. I am building a twin turbo BBC for it with hopes of beating the fastest street legal truck and do some flying mile and some auto X. Alright enough talk and more pics...

Since i dropped off the truck to get dyno tuned the day I flew out for my deployment to afghanistan. I havent had a chance to drive it with the turbo hooked up. One issue I have had with the truck since day one is getting it to hook. If you have any suggestions I would greatly appreciate it. I plan on at least when i go to drag race it unbolting the end links from the sway bar. and see if it will bring the front end up a little faster. I know i need to get some dbl adjustable shocks and start playing with them. I also plan on doing some aero mods. Making a belly pan a wing and a contoured bed cover.
