    I'm from the Detroit area. Just returned from Indy truck bash where I took my first run with my Supercharged 2002 6.0 awd escalade. It was running pretty rich but I still managed a 14.12 @ 103 on 22's . My truck has

    Billet grill
    McGaughys Drop Spindles
    Hotchkis Sway Bars
    BBK 80 MM Throttle Body
    Edelbrock ceramic coated shorty headers
    ATI Polished 8 lb procharger (with 3 core intercooler)
    Shaved roof rack
    Shaved wiper on rear hatch
    Carbon Fiber hood
    B&B Catback
    B&M aluminum 4l60e trans pan
    B&M 160 degree 550 cfm Trans radiator w/fan
    Tuning was done by Ed wright automotive (highly recomended)

    In the works :

    Suede interior
    Painted dash pieces
    Complete paint job (2 tone)
    Fast intake with custom fuel rails and bigger injectors ( so we can get rid of the FMU)

    I am looking for anybody who has used a c-5 intake on the 6.0 ls1 truck engine. Seems pretty simple but I am looking for anybody with any experience in it. Will post pictures of my truck soon.

    Looking forward to seeing what other people have done.

    Thanks John

    I found the carbon fiber hood through VIS racing. The hood is junk actualy. The mold had alot of defects. but as far as I know the only company that makes one is VIS. Thank god I had a great body guy here in detroit who could crack and re-mold the fiber. If you decided to purchase one make sure you remove the stock hood springs and add a hood prop toherwise the hood will start to warp pretty badly.

    Thanks for the reply,
    John

    Welcome over! I answered your question about the LS1 style intake. Also there are around 42lbs/hr high imp injectors available that fit the stock truck intake.
