alum 5.3 with 799 heads. they are basically the same as 243s though. My dmax just sits at my house lol.

dude I know. we had a awesome time wish we could of gotten together. I had a brand new vet vert rippin through daytona all week too lol

 

[vettez062002]

I think you own about 50% of the total production of those things. Also, that engine appears to be a victim of over-maintenance.

lol thanks sid. yait sat in water for a very long time and the rings basically became one with the pistons lol

Let's just hope this doesn't turn into a Saab story.

I didn't even know they made those, but it looks like a cool project to me.

+1!

Pretty cool project! I love my TBSS daily driver. This should be fun once you are done. Join TBSSowners.com. Those guys would love this... Good luck and keep us posted on progress!

This.

Gonna be sick.

You going to try and use a quiet exhaust so that it's even more of a sleeper?

lol wellll.......

I found one corvette NPP muffler laying around the shop that one of the guys was going to throw away.. trying to think how I can make that work. if not, im just going to run the long tube headers and ypipe with stock catback hoping it will be quiet. i wanna be sleeper status as much as possible.

already got a vanity tag ideas...

200 shot. peicing together my nitrous kit off my C6z and friends spare stuff lol. I was given a shark nozzle, I already have all the solenoids, feed line, mount brackets, autometer gauge, blow down tube. working on where to make a hidden switch panel that will hold the gauge and switches, i was hoping the tbss one would work but its different. trying to hide the nitrous bottle in the wheel wells behind the blasic so it looks all stock. thats the plan atleast

Going to be an insane sleeper. Keep the exhaust note docile (cutouts, maybe?) and blow peoples minds :coolman:

+1!

Add extra mufflers post-cutouts to mask the badassness, and get a tune for both ways. With the UpRev tuning in my Titan I could switch back and forth between MAPs for cutouts open/ cutouts closed, all with the cruise control buttons. I used DMH and loved them.

lol im really hoping I can make the NPP muffler I was given work. that would be really cool I think. my bff andrew will be tuning it once its all done. It will need a start up tune anyway with the DOD delete.

The stock catback on the TBSS flows pretty well. Paired with some longtubes it's not that loud.
