I got something similar through Amazon for less. I saw the ones on eBay but felt more comfortable with Amazon in case I wanted to return them. I have had them on my truck for about a month and half and they are excellent.

I installed this thingy on the top of my 2017 6.2L. Not really sure what it does, but my truck goes really fast now.

I did about a year ago and ended up throwing them in the trash. I only got the headlight pieces and had them on for a few months but the more I looked at them more they looked hokie. Just my opinion.

Had a Borla XR1 muffler installed, clamped open the flapper, left the resonator intact. Sounds great.

Washed the bugs off it today, and took some measurements. It's 37" at the front and 39.25" in the back, so I'll have a 1" rake after pulling the rear blocks. Also booked the truck in to tint the front windows. And still searching for some OEM 22's.

Which mud flaps/splash guards do you have installed?

Can't find the post, but someone wanted pictures of the ProClip holder without the phone inserted. Hopefully they look ok, my camera on my iPhone is one that is plagued with the shaky camera syndrome.

See my vehicle build post. I changed out the red grille that comes with the Rally editions for a gloss black grille. I first planned to change out the lights as well but the ratings for the reasonably priced ones on Amazon were very poor. I was also concerned that the black "glossiness" would match. I took a chance on the Razor trim cover and it matches the grille perfectly.

BG INDUCTION cleaning on FUEL and Air from Throttle plate to Piston Tops! Chucked All 8 plugs.....watch out for #8 it's not a show stopper but does require 2-3 drinks to get in the mood........BG'd the ENGINE for 20minutes and replaced all filters.......and washed!

 

If anybody cares the plugs in my opinion looked decent and can go 60K...Just remember they are GDI engines so I would advise not going much longer. As it will only speed up the valve and piston top coking etc. These engines require a little more maintenance is all I am saying and staying on top of GDI's are something you will eventually learn either the easy way or hard way. It's more than just oil and changing by the way with GDI. These engines are pretty stout! I like em so far and working on have been pretty much straight forward...........

 

I mean it's all been straight forward after I removed the God Awful plastic Intake Box contraption that is 3ft by 2ft? Really, stick it on a tree and Shoot that ****ing thing...................

      Another 6.2L engine failure!

      By MASONV88888888 · Posted

      My 2025 Silverado 1500 had to receive a brand-new engine (long block) under warranty last month at only around 16,500 miles. Before the replacement, the truck repeatedly displayed "Engine Oil Level Low" warnings, even though the Oil Life Monitor still showed around 50% remaining after about 6,000 miles since my last oil change. After seeing the warning several times, I checked the dipstick with the engine cold, and the oil level was completely normal. The next day, the message escalated to "Add Engine Oil." At first, I assumed it was just a faulty oil level sensor, so I brought the truck to the dealership. After inspecting the engine, they found internal cylinder wall scoring and ultimately replaced the entire long block under warranty. Before this happened, I was planning to install a 4-inch lift and suspension upgrade on my truck. After needing a new engine at just 16,500 miles, I honestly don't see the point anymore. I also contacted GM to ask whether my vehicle qualified for a buyback, but I was informed that it does not at this time. Anyway, this experience has left me with serious concerns about the long-term reliability of this engine. I sincerely hope NHTSA expands the current investigation or recall to include 2025 model and performs a thorough inspection of affected vehicles. My biggest concern is that these engines may fail shortly after the powertrain warranty expires. If GM truly stands behind this engine, then at the very least, please consider extending the powertrain warranty to 10 years for affected owners. That would go a long way toward restoring customer confidence.

      OCI, not when but why?

      By Grumpy Bear · Posted

      Without exception but then I'm the odd duck, right? I know what goes into that test, how it is calculated and thus how to beat it. But EPA values are often not beaten by the general public and the government has in past years adjusted the means and methods to come to those values to more closely approximate "Joe Average".    The only real trick to beating that EPA average is don't drive like "Joe Average".    It's the same method you used to profit from "Economic Migration" and in doing so beat the 'stats'. But you, like me, are not "Joe Average".     The thing you don't seem to grasp is this "Purchasing Power Index" isn't forward looking. It doesn't predict what it going to be but looks backward and states what it was. They are not telling us what the THINK, they are telling us what they MEASURED. Example:    Wife says "I'm going to lose 40 pounds by Christmas". May she does, maybe she doesn't but the doctors office who weighed her when she made that statement and again at Christmas only REPORTS what the RESULT was. You and I can banter about what was possible and what aunt Tilly did till the cows come home but the result is the result. Arguing otherwise is.....irrational. That's all I'm saying. This isn't about:      What you are calling a 'Statistic' is a RESULT not a CALCUATION and as a result the RULE. Like gravity as a rule, it can not be broken.

      Rattle in the rear!

      By MASONV88888888 · Posted

      Just wanted to say thank you for posting this. Years later, your thread is still helping Silverado owners.   I bought my 2025 Silverado 1500 in January 2025, and I've had what feels like the exact same rattle since day one. After reading your findings, I believe my truck has the same issue with the cable carrier contacting the rear sliding window. To be honest, I had pretty much given up on pursuing the issue. It wasn't until I recently drove another brand's pickup that I realized just how quiet their cabin was—and how noisy mine has been all along. On my truck, the rattle happens on almost any paved road, gets even worse on rougher pavement, and I can even hear it during braking and acceleration.   I actually referenced your thread when submitting my case to GM, hoping they'll recognize this as a recurring issue instead of treating it as an isolated incident. The reason I reached out to GM first is because my dealership told me they would need to keep the truck for at least two days just to diagnose the problem. I was concerned that even after two days, they still might not be able to identify the source of the rattle before giving the truck back to me. I had also asked a few dealerships about this issue during previous service visits, but none of them seemed to know what was causing it or had a solution. That's why I decided to contact GM directly first, hoping they might already have an official repair procedure or guidance for this issue.   I also hope GM eventually comes up with an official fix for this problem. I have a feeling there are many Silverado owners experiencing the same rattle, but most either choose to live with it or simply don't know what the cause is.   Really appreciate you taking the time to document your diagnosis. Your post is still making a difference years later.

      Do you have access to BP fuels? Some stations have Silver 91 E-0 priced the same as their 93 E-10.  There is a local Marathon with 90 alky free for $6 a gallon but I go down the road to BP for $5-ish. They also have a 100 E-0 but that stuff is $10 a pop.
