Awesome truck Kert. I will soon be starting on my own with a little less lift and the same size tires hopefully. But its going to be a long haul with this one as I have little money.

Let me just say again wow I mean really wow

Thanks bud!!

Just ordered some jets for the carb tonight. Try to get the fuel under a little tighter control toward the end of the week. By then I should be at the end of the first 500 miles and done with the break in.

I got the front tires to rub Saturday! Sliders didn't seem to care much and the tires didn't either. I may pull the front axle forward half an inch or so.

You plannin' on some trimming?
 
yah I plan on playing with the axle location a little too. I plan on keeping the small fender lip all the way around and just sectioning it a bit to get some clearance

I also plan on bagging the back. Already did it to one truck and it works pretty good, with a few tweaks it should be really nice on my truck. I will need to measure very carefully to make sure I have tire clearance room though

Nothing like backing under a gooseneck and just dropping the truck instead of raising the trailer!!
 
A few shots of some marker lights.

Thanks!

From what the wife said, the camera was a little confused as to how to handle the lighting and focus jobs.

The 500 mile brake in oil got swapped out last night so it may be about time to see what she can do....
 
Hopefully some video some time this weekend maybe.

Lots of good guesses on weight but nobody has quite gotten it.

ARAMP1 was the closest at 7330.

Actual GVW was 7340 lbs.
 
I am worried about the Suburban! It started at 5700. I have trimmed about 300lbs off of it, but I am probably going to add about 6000 lbs to it! :)

No need to worry! Build more torque and it'll all work out.:D Always easier said than done.
 
Yep, now its 508 cubes if memory serves. .040" over the factory bore.
