Default The revival!!!!!!

It's coming back, my best machine I've ever had, my truck. AAAhhhhhh the memories. Got all my bills straightened out, all my little bumps in the road leveled, so she will be mine again. First thing I'm gonna do is mount the wheels that I got a few months ago and fix all the little things wrong with it. I've worked out a little budget, and hopefully in about 4 or 5 weeks, as long as nothing goes wrong to cost me more money, she will be supercharged and fully tuned. Traction issues are being delt with as we speak and I've been on the phone with Bill Mach from Mach Performance the last couple of days and he is confident that he can get my mighty 4.3 up to 500whp for under $6,000. You don't know how happy this makes me.

congrats looks like alot of people I'm reading and hearing about are getting what they want this summer. I should be buying my friends used t3/t4 57 trim for under $1k instead of buying a 50trim for 1,100$

Yeah I am so excited. I can't wait, I got a lot of the kinks out and took it down the road, its a beast. I guess I had forgotten how fast it really was. Hey Joey, is there any way possible that south main can get my truck up on the lifts to change the oil? I sold my other two jacks because I didn't think I'd be needing them anymore, and its impossible to get this thing up on ramps. I know the trick of the trade for lowriders is to jack it up from the differential and then put the lift arms underneath it, are you guys willing to do that? And also, how much do you think it would be to mount 17x8 wheels on 235/45/17 tires? I know you guys have some kind of thing where you charge extra if the tires aren't from there, but I figure I would just get it all done at once.
