I have a 6.2 2019 LTZ going to have LMP install my whipple along with headers, cam, port the heads, get those shitty lifters out of there, lower compression with some 10.0 compression forged pistons,and maybe 8 piggy back injectors in the whipple manifold. Shop is booked until January so i have time to start saving lots of money for the build.

Maybe not Denali shocks, i just read they have Magnaride similar to what my 2011 CTS-V has

No i didn't notice the shitty ride on my brief test drive. I was just thinking since this was an all new designed truck, it would ride really nice. It's not just the Z71 optioned truck with it's Z71 Rancho Mono tube suspension that is the problem ? Do all trim levels of this new silverado ride like this ? I was thinking about replacing all the shocks with Denali shocks or a non Z71 GM double tube shock for now, at the dealers cost, until the aftermarket comes out with something. The dealership is hounding me on filling out their survey. If i don't get a smooth, non bouncy riding truck, the dealership and GM are going to get blasted on their survey.My truck is at the dealer now having a dent removed that i didn't see until i got it home and the paint on the hood cleared of some spotty fallout. They gave me a 2019 LD Silverado that is smooth as silk and doesn't bounce. This truck is the out going design. Does anyones steering wheel shake like crazy going over bumps in the road in their new T1 trucks. I can feel every bump through the steering wheel, very bad on bumpy roads. Same road with loaner truck, steering wheel feels great. WTF is going on ?

Just bought a 2019 LTZ Z71, i wish i would have read this before i bought it. The truck rides terrible,bouncing all over the road, feels very unstable at high speed to the point that i'm going to lose control. At slower speed going over bumps the steering wheel shakes so bad i just can't believe this is a brand new truck. I traded my 2017 LTZ that road perfect and smooth for this piece of shit. I want another truck,i've only had it 6 days and i can't stand the junk. Anyone have any suggestions on what to do ?

Hi everybody, about ready to pickup a 2017 LTZ 6.2. I read 30 of the 49 pages on and don't see anything about this. I'm thinking about putting the 2500 duramax ram air hood and setup on my 1500. Will this hood fit the 1500 ? for the hood and all other pieces minus paint it will cost 1500.00 or so. Has anyone tired this for a CIA ram effect?

It's been a long time on here but, i finally put a new custom grind cam in my Seirra to finally complement the E-Force supercahrger that i intalled in the summer of 2012. The new cam added 82 more hp and now wheel hp power is up to 518. Now i need someone to point me in the direction of some new aftermarket rotors and calipers to help bring this thing to a stop. Does anyone know if Brembo has anything with 4 or 6 piston calipers that will fit my L9H Seirra with the stock 17's. What are the upgrade brake options out there for our trucks. I know Hennessey sells some very expensive brake up grades, i was hoping i could gather some pieces myself for a lot less

I was looking back at this thread and i didn't see where i had been on for a while since i bolted my headers ans supercharger on. Back in September i did get a chance to go to the track and lay down a pass. I got a 12.9 @ 106 with a 1.82 60ft . That was all wanted to know for right then. i knew i couldn't do anymore because the injectors were maxed. My ID 850's are in my hands so now i can get back to where i left off. I got Justin from Black Bear making me a tune for my new injectors and a smaller pulley to go on the supercharger. I think i'll add some meth injection after that.Then back to the track in the spring when it opens.

I sent Black Bear an email about hooking me up with a tune,waitng to hear back from them.

Anybody have any experince with EFI Live? Thinking about buying it and trying some of my own tuning.I downloaded the demo version and it seems to have a lot of variables to mess with.Looks like you would have to be trained on how to use it.Maybe if i fry my motor that will give me an excuse to drop in a LSX short block.Hmmmm.

Fred M,that supercharger took me and a friend close to 24 hours spread over four days. I'm not an auto mechicanic,but i have always torn my own engines apart and fixed my parents and kids cars and trucks when they break,so i know how to turn a wrench. I earn my money as a machinist. The Edelbrock ad with Mike Rowe from Dirtiest Jobs doing the talking says,installs in a couple of hours,yeah,bull too. Maybe after the 10th one you could get it down to eight hours. It all went together well,they give a nice installation book with good color pictures,but it still takes a while.You thinking about getting one?

Jonathan,i picked up a boost gauge and hooked it up. I was kind of let down when i was only seeing 5 lbs of boost. I went back looking to see if i could find something that advertised the 7lbs i thought i read somewhere. Nope,not mentioned anywhere. So i call Edelbrock and ask what the boost level should be and they tell me 5.5 lbs.I told them i have only 5 lbs and they tell me because i have a magnaflow muffler,that the back pressure is less now,so 5 lbs sounds about right. So you know what i did? Ordered two smaller pulleys. I'm going to go up in boost 2 lbs at a time with each pulley change. I'm going from a 3.750 to a 3.500 and get a tune,then drive it for a week or two before uping it again. If you want to add the boost gauge,i found a pod mount for the a-pillar from a company called Bully Dog that replaces the whole a-pillar trim piece. It comes in black only and can be painted to match,plus it has a hole for the Bose tweeter. What is coming next is a cam from Comp Cams. They have four grinds for the VVT that we have in our trucks,but they are not blower cams. A blower cam needs less overlap. They are working on grinding me a custom cam and springs to match,i might as well get the titanium retainers while i'm at it. I don't know if you know it or not,but these VVT cams let you have your cake and eat it too. They allow you to run a bigger, longer cam for upper rpm horse power without giving up the low end torque.But you have to limit the 50 degrees of adjustment to around 20 to keep the pistons away from the exhaust valves. Also I'm going for a set of big,long tube headers to let it breath. I'm being told that 600 plus horse power at the crank and over 500 at the wheels shouldn't be a problem. These IV generation LS motors are plenty strong enough to take it,just got to keep revs under 7000.Did you see any of the pictures of the Generation V small block or the '14 trucks?

Finally i was able to post some pictures This is a video,click on picture to get video to play.

Hey Jonathan how are you doing? Does your Callaway have a boost gauge?If yes how many pounds of boost does your motor make?Also does your truck have headers?I like my supercharger,but i feel like i want just a little more and i was going to add headers,but i'm being told that the stock manifolds are ok for my 7lbs of boost with stock cam and heads.I'm going to get a boost gauge so i can see if i'm at least getting 7lbs.Also n a couple of weeks i'm going to get a custom tune done.I'm a little scared to do it,i'm afraid their going to lean me out too much or up my timing too much and fry my motor,but i know Edelbrock's tune is real conserative.
