    Both times mine were leaking at the crimps right were they take the turn to go under the motor. Where they connect to the radiator and back at the engine block they have been dry both times. So far so good on these new ones. The first time I did them they were original, the second time I changed...

    Thanks bud, she is a five footer. I have minimal rust and just keep rattle canning it until I decide if I want to stop the cancer or just let it go. I still haven't settled on keeping this truck for the foreseeable future or just for the next year or so. Clean trucks are a pain in the butt to...

    Haha I'm jealous of the guy I sold my HD to, I wish I had that truck back... I definitely like the torque of these 454 motors compared to the 350 vortecs, feels more like a diesel than a gasser. I'd really like to stay away from the delete if possible but I will entertain anything if I keep...

    Thank you! No big plans other than to maintain it and drive it. In the next year or two once finances play out after getting married I'd like to get back in a GMT 800 ext cab half ton, preferably an '06 with the HD hood and split grille. That truck with a 4" lift and 33x12.5's and call it a day.

    I have heard of guys doing that before, I don't tow heavy or plow so I think I could get away with this mod and not have trouble. I'll have to do a search to find a thread, definitely will be looking into this next time they start leaking.

    Finally got around to throwing the PYO wheels on. After my wedding in June I plan to get some 285/75/16's, probably Cooper AT3's. Also found a factory Sport bowtie on Ebay, thought it woke up the front end a little. Side note, I'm on my second set of Dorman oil cooler lines on this truck in...

    That Vmax is slick as hell too. What do you guys do for a living, or do I want to know? I have trouble putting money in one truck and you have two killer ones.

    Just joined so this is the first I have seen of your truck, it is sexy as all get out. Very tastefully done, sir. I read you have a nnbs vmax, I'd love to see some pics of that truck too.

    That is awesome dmr22! I always enjoy when modifieds or late models are the support class for the sprint car races we attend. Have been wanting to go to the world 100 at Eldora for a long time, just haven't made it there.

    We follow the World of Outlaws sprints and 410 All Stars. I was on a wingless 410 team years back but that was just too much work with my day job. We go to Eldora 3 times a year, Knoxville Nationals, Kokomo, Plymoth Speedway, Bloomington, Gas City, and Kankakee IL here and there.

    Ha, thank you Sir, I loved that HD. It was leveled, 285/70/17 Cooper STT's, Bilstein 5100's, billet grille, Flowmaster Delta Force 40 muffler, full K&N intake, tuned by Black Bear Performance, had 5000k HIDs, and for a 6.0L gasser she would run. I miss old red...

    Thanks man! I do miss the EC but I couldn't pass on this truck. I drove two hours into Michigan to get it, almost no rust whatsoever on it. With GMT 400's around here that is unheard of unless it has been restored. I'm still getting used to the big block and how the RPM range feels. I have had...

    Thanks bud. Yeah, I know... I just snapped a couple in the parking lot at work on my morning break. When I get it cleaned up come spring I'll post more, I'm kind of OCD about showing it dirty. Not many plans other than drive the hell out of it. Like I said in my first post, I have polished...

    Figured I would post a couple more pics of my other trucks through the years as well. 1995 Silverado 2000 Silverado, 3" BL, Weld 16.5x9, 33x12.5's BFG's 2007 Silverado GMT 900, 2" RC leveling kit, 1.5" Zone BL, 285/65/18 Trail Grapplers 2007 Silverado Classic, color matched front grille...

    I have been a member for years over at GM-Trucks.com, but sold my 2008 GMC HD back in September to save for my wedding. I went back to my roots and purchased a 1998 K2500 4x4 454 Vortec as my DD and for use around the family farm. The first truck I ever drove when I was a little kid was my...
