    Hi there guys, wow I was happy to find this site! I currently have a loaded 97 RCSB and am looking to upgrade to 2003 up or possibly brand new, mostly to get into the LSx engines as there is some serious power mods for that series. I am looking at doing some swaps (LS1 or 2 and possibly sponsered) and other stuff (supercharging etc).

    I'm in Alberta, Canada. This IS truck country up here.

    I'll be looking for advice....I've done lots of rodding and mods over the years including frame off restos and hardcore stuff like that (cars though) but I have always found there is always someone who was there first and has helpful advice to save money/time. Looking over this site its pretty obvious you guys are on top of things!

    Trucks have included 69 Chev, 70GMC (first vehicle), 72 Chev (with air&#33, 85 Wrangler, and now my 97 RCSB which has been awesome. Everyone needs a truck. I need a truck with power!!

    Tim

    Ok, pic attached of current ride. Pic is not great but only overview shot I have where truck is not towing a car or moving someone!!

    I have pics of the other trucks but they are gone now, can post if you wish. I really love the old style machines (67-72) as I learned to drive on them , it was freedom, but the new ones are just so much more capable without modding them crazy...

    If you put hydraulics and 10" rims on that I&#39;ll personally come up and yank your axles off with my logging chain.

    Kindding.

    Kind of.

    OK, I&#39;m not.
