Throwing out a little update...

I haven't been around very much, due to working my butt off on a daily basis. The truck went in for a few cosmetic upgrades, such as a new tahoe grille and new inserts, as well as a painted bumper cap and my nitrous bottle painted to match the truck.
I have a set of 20" SS wheels coming for it as well.
Performance wise....I got a set of traction bars made by caltrac and I installed a set of 31lb injectors. I also got a fresh tune with my shift points raised up from 6300 to 6500. I haven't been able to make it to the track since the new stuff, but I'm hoping to beat my current best of 12.50.
I'm through piecing all of the parts I want to use for the nitrous setup. I've got to get my hands on some logging software(Atap) to see where my timing is at running down the track, so I can send the info in to Allen and he can get me a nitrous tune set up. The usual amount of timing needing to be adjusted is usually 2 degrees for every 50hp, but I also want to keep my fast motor times, so I need to Log a few passes. I've been considering getting the ls1 timing tuner, so I can have the best of both worlds at the flip of a switch.
Other than that, everything is pretty much going same ole same ole. I haven't been in that big of a hurry for the nitrous because I'm still trying to get in the 11s on motor. I've been considering stepping up to a bigger cam/stall, but I need an everyday driver first. :biggrin:
I'll have some nitrous passes really soon(if work would ever slow down!!!)
