    Yet another newb

    Howdy yall. I'm originally from Ohio, but I'm stationed here in El Paso, TX for the time being. I bought me an '06 Z71 that is in showroom condition. It's got every option you can think of - L33, G80, 4.10's, Bose, all that. I've got an '84 C10 back home that is incredible to look at or listen to. It looks like it would have brand new, but runs WAY better.
    2006 Silverado 1500 Z71 in Blue Metallic - L33 5.3L, 3" body lift, 2.5" level, 35x12.50x17 BFG KM2's, 17x9" DC-2's, K&N, Stock 4.10's, G80

    1984 C10 in Sky Blue Flake - 383 stroker, Holley 760 Avenger, K&N, cam, heads, long tube headers to 2.5" true duals, 4.10's, Turbo 400 w/ shift kit, frame-off resto

    Replaced everything!!! Glass, chrome, handles, lights, weather strips, all interior, anything you can think of. I had LMC on speed dial unfortunately....I probably kept them in business last year. It was an original 4.3L quadrajunk high-rise with the T400 and 12-bolt posi. Had 60,000 original miles....bought it for $500 actually. Threw in a '70 Z28 350, then modded that after 6 months of not having "enough power." Now with this 383, it gets sideways at 45 when it kicks down to 2nd. It FLIES
