00Silverado4x4 Posted October 19, 2012 Posted October 19, 2012 Sounds like a lot of fun, provided to can keep tires on it. lol You'll have to keep us posted on how it does from time to time.
6Sixathome Posted October 19, 2012 Posted October 19, 2012 That truck sounds mean! When it comes to diesel fuel (I don't know much about diesels or diesel fuel) is there different grades kind of like gas has 87,89,91, or 93 octane? Your truck sounds like it would need a premium diesel fuel for all those horses. I will say I saw on an episode of Gearz where Stacy put a propane kit on a diesel truck, it bumped the HP up a bit too.

I will say I saw on an episode of Gearz where Stacy put a propane kit on a diesel truck, it bumped the HP up a bit too. Yes their is different grades. It's not octane, it's Cetane. The only gas station I know around here that sells higher Cetane value diesel is shell. It's not worth it tho, I just run Cetane booster in every tank. The key to injector life on a diesel is cleanliness. My buddy was smart with this truck when he bought it he added a airdog 165gph lift pump which has two filters on it, then he bought a special adapter that screws on where your original fuel filter goes so you can run a Cat 10 micron fuel filter. The lift pump also runs Cat filters as well, they're a little more pricy but they filter better than anything else. This truck had a water methanol injection system, those types of injection systems really are for bringing down EGT's. He took off the water meth when he did twin turbos because the egt's are very controllable with twins. In fact on the hottest tune it won't go above 1200F, that is very good for having stock intercooler still. I watch gearz all the time too ahah, Stacy still my favorite car show lol. I wanna apologize to everyone else too for gettin rude with that doucher. I don't wanna be rude or hurt feelings I swear lol. Some people just piss me off.
Big Whiskey Posted October 20, 2012 Posted October 20, 2012 Plus never said my other forums were "totally badass" :read: sent from your HTC Rezound Yes you did. See below. I'm very serious... Sorry I'm not like all the other soft harted fairies here that will praise a vehicle no matter how bad it looks (this being prime example) I'm on several different gm truck forums. 2 of which are totally badass, and most of them will agree with me. Because we aren't afraid to actually say our opinion.
NJ Bassmaster Posted October 20, 2012 Posted October 20, 2012 :facepalm: alright you got me. I wrote so much I forgot my words. Didn't think I'd say something that stupid lol But this is over, let op continue to talk about deezol and tunes Edit. You don't have to quote that entire post. It's way too long and clogging to keep being brought up. At least crop it down to that one paragraph imo sent from your HTC Rezound

SarahsGMC Posted October 20, 2012 Posted October 20, 2012 i really hate internet memes on informative sites.. really really do.. everyone has their own opinion of something, we come to forums to share information and show off our rides, if someone asks for an opinion give it. but dont be an ass about it. we're all adults here for the most part and we should really act like it because i know for a fact if this was all face to face and he was telling this story and showing the truck you nwouldnt have said what you said. lets end the shitfest and go on with the thread.

HEMICAT Posted October 20, 2012 Posted October 20, 2012 Ha Ha! LOL! Chevyboy. Oh I could open up a big can of diesel drawback whoopass, but it's your thread so I'll be nice! ( like try to follow me on a twisty road and you'll end up in the woods, or good luck on cold mornings, or try to follow me through "wet grass", or have fun re-mortgaging your house when it breaks down, or good luck trying to re-sell it, or....................sorry I couldn't resist!) Seriously though I know it's worth it. I honestly wish you good luck with it! Edit: sorry I was supposed to quote your 35`tires and 20 MPG comment.
Big Whiskey Posted October 20, 2012 Posted October 20, 2012 Sorry your thread went down the pooper. I helped contribute to the usless posts...and I apologize. That truck is a bad mo fo...and I'm looking forward to some of the videos!
RyanbabZ71 Posted October 20, 2012 Posted October 20, 2012 Let it go and get back on topic. Let this be a warning Let's abide to what we should have been taught at a young age "if you don't have anything nice to say do t say anything at all". Or in this case typing instead of saying. Get the train back on the track !!! Ryan
