    New member from Ft. Worth

    Just thought I would check in since I am new here.

    This site looks like it has some great info and help for the at home mechanic.

    I Currently drive a 99' Silverado 1500 Z71. I will try to get pics up on here some time.

    I just recently got a 6.0 LQ4 with 80,000 miles on it to swap into my truck. The 5.3 is fine, i am just a power junky.

    I have been lurking for a while now, I just thought I might as well join since I spend most of my internet time on here.

    Lots of questions to come....

    Its my first big mechanical project, other than water pumps, radiators, tune-ups, etc...

    So I am just going to take my time and soak up any good info.

    When I tell people where I live they usually look at me funny, so Ft. worth is my normal answer.

    I actually live in Wise county right off of Eagle Mountain lake, close to Newark. (out of city limits)

    So it looks like I am really close to you...
