Project X-Raided
great work sully, you are difinitely closer to being done than when you started.
You should put up your 4.7 for sale. A 3.7 to 4.7 swap should be a relatively easy swap since all the parts already exist.
hungry for a new years update!
I saw 2 raiders today, within a mile of eachother! One was an amazing blue color, like Subaru's royal blue. Not like my dulled out atlantic blue.

Whats up sully? Any updates? Or are u waiting for more paychecks like I am?
Ok so it turned out the test motor I bought from a friend was bad. It cracked 2 rods one start up which is unheard of when we tour the motor apart it the piston and rod had burn marks on it proving that the motor was beat to hell, also all of the piston and rod had different clearance gaps (like were the piston meets the rod they where all different some where tight some where lose)
So I was lucky enough that are sales man from BMR Suspensions was selling his 5.3L motor so I drove from Ft Lauderdale to Tampa to get it. I has to swap over the cam, pushrods, and springs, I had to order LS7 lifters, ARP headstud bolts, new seats and seals, and head gaskets. So the motor is being put back together and will be back in the truck this weekend. Everything is wired up and ready to go so the truck will be tuned Sunday or Monday.
Then Part 2 Begins:
Lowering the front (Coilovers) and making custom drop shackles for the rear
Custom Roll Pain in the rear
Locker in the Rear
20x8.5 20x10 corr Cipher
Painting front/rear bumber color of the truck
Wrapping all trim pieces in carbon fiber 3m film
Wrapping Roof in Carbon Fiber
Wrapping Front Emblem in Carbon Fiber
Get Seats Wrapped in Black Leather
Pioneer 4300 Headunit
Kicker Components in the front
Kicker Coax in the rear
10" Kicker Shallow mount
mm 6 channel amp
Part 3
Magnum 72mm Turbo
Custom Precision Intercooler
Walbro Fuel Pump
Aeromotive fuel Pressure Regulator
LS6 Intakemaifold
LS6 Fuel Rails
60 pound injectors
4l80e
10psi of boost
