The build of "Wh4t3v3rs"

[89obsSB]

I think most new trucks put out over 300hp in stock form.

Right my 2002 avalanche I believe is above 250hp. Hell my wife’s 2016 Acadia has 288 hp lol.

Ok, for all of those that have been waiting for the manual rack with bump steer, I have finally figured out my steering beyond the rack. I'm opting for a custom made up kit from Baer Brake Systems.

Nice, I have been really debating sticking with P/S or not as of late.

I'm typing this as affectionately as possible - you are an engineer. Stick with PS.

And I'm gonna say this a nicely as I can.... if you fell the need to be sarcastic about the equipment I've chosen for MY build, ON MY THREAD, you need to have some kind of experience with or have the knowledge about...... cause I'm guessing you haven't been sideways at 100 MPH and have just gotten there in a few seconds!

I was actually joking with Mr Pink....

And at one time I held an ama pro roadracing license - I have been sideways at 150+, jus sayin.

I may be an engineer but I have also raced in many different capacities over the years and built cars ranging from spec Miata's to full on pro-mod's so with that said, for my truck i am still debating P/S. As it will be mainly street driven with occasional Drag trips, I really want to do HRPT and HRDW with it. so it has to be dead nuts reliable.

James(@Wh4t3v3rs) and I have talked extensively about most aspects of his and my builds, we are following slightly similar paths, while he is going twin's I am going with a single. but most other stuff we are right there with.

Hope I'm not polluting the thread, but the NA V6 in my Gladiator is rated at 295. TQ is minimal though.
