Posting a few details and pics of a few of my cars.
1999 GMC Sierra Xcab 5.3ltr I installed the Bell Tech 5/7 drop and Bell Tech springs in the front with their Nitro Active Shocks. KMC Stealth 20" wheels with Yokohama AVS Sport tires. After I bought the truck I had it about a week before tearing it completely apart for all the mods to be done. The suspension was refitted with the Bell Tech components. The rear end was lowered by cutting the frame and making my own C-section in order to flip the rear end above the leaf spring. I was not impressed with the original Indigo Blue so I did some research to come up with just the right blue. I settled on Dodge Viper Blue, that has two colors of pearl within the paint. I painted the truck and the result is exactly what I was looking for. There are some suttle graphics planned, but I have not decided on the final scheme. I have several concepts on the drawing board. I also quickly threw away the original muffler and exhaust in favor of a specifically designed dual exhaust system with Flowmaster 50 series. The exhaust was done by the best exhaust guy I have seen in the business in Montana. Long distance, but well worth the trip. The computer was reprogrammed for the different tire size and premium fuel to access the advanced timing feature. Also the transmission shift firmness was boosted. Additional computer interface was accomplished to monitor all the onboard telemetry sensors. I am able to monitor every sensor on the truck through my laptop. I am building a benchmark profile of the truck in mostly stock trim before further modifications. At this point, aside from the computer reprogram, nothing has been done to the engine. I have developed my own spacer, that deals with the internal fluid dynamics much better than the Power Aide version. Holly has finally come out with the design and is just now becoming available for distribution. All the computer work is to prepare myself and the truck for the supercharger and 100hp Nitrous shot. All said and done, the truck will be running somewhere around 550hp with 1/4 miles in the 11s. The pics were taken in Montana up in Glacier Park in July, 2001. Fun truck.

2nd Pic
I have had the truck up to 130mph with the computer reprogram. The charger should bump that up a bit.

Very Very Nice.
I like the color choice as well. Keep us informed as to how the S/C and Nitrous turns out
