I bought the truck in 2005 with 78,000 miles for $9,000 and have put over $25,000 in mods. Mods include, but not all, 5.3 W/ ported/polished heads with 5 angle valve job. Manley valves- 1.65 exhaust 2.02 intake, PAC Beehive springs. Custom Lunati CAM 218/224 int/exh @ 0.05" duration 0.558" / 0.560" int/exh lift 112+4 LSA. Roller rockers and hardened pushrods.

Please don't waste my time with ridiculous offers, joy ride fetishes, scams of buying it and having it shipped, or any other BS. If you are truly interested in the truck, call me and make an appointment to see it in person or at least call me with questions. Truck is currently stored next door at neighbors.

 I wanted to add that the mods made were done around 100k miles and then again around 105k miles. The body has 117k miles on it, the transmission, drive shaft, rear end, brakes, coltracs, second cam shaft (had a Z06 cam first swap), upper valve assembly, oil pump, have about 5k miles on them. I average about 1500 miles a year on the truck. The oil gets changed before storage, after, and usually during the summer. I use castrol semi synthetic 10w30, with either a wix or Pureone oil filter. The radiator is stock with new core that is twice the size as stock with added extra trans cooler. She has two fuel pumps running 42lb injectors. I usually run the highest octane available and mix it with 110 racing fuel, about half and half. The front tires are 245/70/16 and the rears are 285/60/16. My goal was to make a sleeper and she has performed very well!

Reuss says GM diesel plans are still on pace

Fri, Oct 16 2015

General Motors is not going to let Volkswagen's diesel emissions scandal ruin its plans for a new line of efficient, torquey oil-burners, the company's Executive Vice President Mark Reuss said at a recent press event. "No way," Reuss responded when asked about cancelling the upcoming diesel-powered Chevrolet Cruze and other vehicles. "The Cruze Diesel is too good not to do it." Slated for 2017, the compact is just the latest member of a diesel offensive that initially kicked off with the first Cruze Diesel and most recently saw the introduction of the oil-burning Chevy Colorado and GMC Canyon. Reuss also reassured those in attendance that there was "no delay" in development of Cadillac's diesel lineup. Cadillac is working on a line of four- and six-cylinder turbodiesels for Europe. They'd make their way into the US market, too, eventually. "It's a question of timing," Reuss said, according to Car and Driver. Volkswagen's diesel emissions scandal has caused automakers across the globe to at least reanalyze their diesel strategy. Jaguar Land Rover, which is preparing several diesel-powered models for the US market, went on record late last month to reaffirm its commitment to diesel.

Watch NASCAR racer Jeff Gordon put one over on a used car dealer... sorta

Wed, 13 Mar 2013

Full Disclosure: in my younger days, I loved nothing more than tormenting passengers with my behind-the-wheel hijinks. Once, after a particularly artful handbrake turn on a two-lane at around 50 miles per hour, I left one backseat occupant crying in their own lap. This isn't necessarily something to be proud of, but it gives you a glimpse into why it is that I find this ad from Pepsi so damn disappointing. The premise is beautiful. Take NASCAR legend Jeff Gordon, give him a disguise and set him loose upon some unsuspecting used car dealer. Hilarity ensues.
Except that this Pepsi Max commercial is so obviously staged, it can't help but feel like some ham-fisted marketing fail. From the strategically placed aftermarket cupholder mounted mid-dash for the hidden camera to the fact that the supposed dealer Camaro is displayed as a 2009 model (Hint: Chevrolet didn't make any), this clip is about as organic as a Twinkie. Still, we would never turn down a chance to watch Gordon thrash on a rental-spec coupe - only problem is, he probably didn't even do the driving himself. Check it out below.

Corvette Z06 and Viper TA square off at the strip

Wed, Jan 21 2015

There are many long-standing grudge matches among automobiles: 911 vs GT-R, Mustang vs Camaro, Ferrari vs Lamborghini... but as far as high-end American metal goes, it doesn't get much more legendary than Viper vs 'Vette. So after Chevy released the new Corvette Z06, we knew it was only a matter of time before it would have to square off against the Viper TA. And what better place to pit these two parallel pillars of American performance than on the drag strip? Fortunately that's just what we have here. In one corner, the 2014 Dodge Viper TA, with its 8.4-liter V10 pumping out 640 horsepower and 600 pound-feet of torque. In the other, the 2015 Chevrolet Corvette Z06, the supercharger on its 6.2-liter V8 more than making up for the discrepancy in displacement and cylinder count to produce 650 hp and just as much torque. But numbers don't tell the whole story, so watch the video clip to see which reaches the end of the quarter-mile first.
