Dad and I Picked up a 93 GMC dually, was my uncles. Trucks clean runs and drives strong, 120k so needs some simple tlc but seems like its gonna be a good work truck. Looking to get a trailer next for the tractor and our possible spring landscaping endeavor, well see how that pans out.

Might start a small auto business now cause I'll have a "tow truck" lol

Nice truck and welder!!!

Sounds like you have a few options for your new business.

Totally forgot about the "display" radios in those trucks with the cassette deck being like 4 feet away from ya lol. And nice welder man! Nothing to it really, self-taught here and have never had a weld snap on me yet. And not talking about little auto stuff. Talking about buckets on backhoe's, plow frames for anything from a 944H Deere front loader, 650G Deere dozer to a 420D Cat. One bit of advice, invest in a good mask. Flashburn bites ass!

Putting a stock hood on and making ls1 lid work still

Trick to make the stock rad support work, drill a new hole and it fits almost perfect.

Short straight path for air vs stock bends and 3+ feet length, can not see how it could make it worse. lol

Why else would they put them on the ls1 unless they worked better then the lt1 intake?

ILuvPizzaTimes10 04-21-2013 11:43 PM

who knows why But sucking hot ass air from the top of the radiator makes less sence the sucking it from the wheel well. regardless of intake tubing length. hey if your happy with it SWEET! it sure does look great! but if i didnt have an "ls" car i would still have a moroso LT1 style CAI.
