The truck started as Z56 Police Pursuit Package Tahoe. If you google Z56 Tahoe you will see this was the best stock chassis to start with, HD brakes, HD suspension, lower ride height, and 2WD are some of the factory Z56 features.
On the mechanical side, I tossed the factory iron block 5.3L and replaced it with a Corvette LS1 5.7 Aluminum short block with factory flat top pistons, New Clevite Bearings, ARP Rod Bolts, 241 Heads with Partriot Gold Double Springs, GM MLS Head Gasket, Comp Cams custom grind 230/232 .601 lift cam, Melling LS6 High Flow Oil Pump, Cloyes LS2 Timing Set, All new GM factory replacement gaskets from the dealer. The engine is at about 10:1 compression, tuned for 93 pump gas, and runs great and makes about 450-500HP crank, soon to be higher with a little more tuning.
Exhaust starts with polished Stainless OBX Long Tube Headers to V-Band clamps connecting it to a full Stainless 3in true dual over the axel out the rear to polished Stainless SLP 4in tips running through Stainless Magnaflow straight through mufflers and a DynoMax Stainless Cross-Flow Muffler (X-Pipe). This exhaust was all done right, mandrel bends, all stainless hardware and stainless wire was used for welding. This will last forever and sounds amazing, nice rumble down low that wakes up when you get on it.
The rear end was replaced with 4:10 gears and an Eaton posi unit, Installed by a professional and is what Eaton calls their "Bullet-Proof" rear end.
The Transmission was rebuilt. It shifts awesome, nice and firm and does not slip at all. Should last for many years and the transmission computer was tuned along with everything else to handle the added power.
The brakes were all just replaced with ceramic pads all the way around and new calipers in the front. This truck does have the Heavy Duty braking package and stops with lots of power.
Starting front to back with the SS front bumper, then the SS grills, next the body color header panel, then the clear corner lenses, and hide-away fog lights. I added the HID 8000K headlights, they are in proper projector housings with proper cut-offs that will light up the road and not blind oncoming traffic. Next was to shave any body molding, clear the roof, and color match the door handles. I also ceramic painted the calipers and added Chevrolet high temp caliper decals. The look of this truck is 2nd to none and a real eye catcher. 1 of a kind and receive complements all the time.

Now for the "Good News/Bad News" section...
The Good:...
You have a truck with a newer engine, lots of power that is going to last a really long time because it has all now quality parts. Transmission has been rebuilt and tuned for the power, so it will last for many years to come. The rear end internals are all brand new too and with performance parts. The entire drivetrain is rebuilt or new and is ready for years and years of long term reliable service. The truck is still a 2006 and is pretty new. I have used "Rust Proofing" on the underside of the truck, and it is mostly rust free although it is a Buffalo vehicle and rust proofing last 2yrs at best here, I recommend doing it again next winter if it is something you care to do. The truck has never had a trailer hitch and never been used for towing or heavy loads. I have the title clean and clear in hand with no leins. I have almost $6K in receipts for most of the work and parts that have been put on this truck. The brakes are all new within the past month, and the carpet is brand new.
The Bad:....
Minor crack in the windsheild up above the rear view mirror. The front bumper is "a good 10 footer" it has at this point more touch-up paint on it than actual paint (not really that much, but a lot). The paint all around has some scratches. The heated seats are not yet wired, I have not had the time since I put the new seats in. The rear wiper does not work, and I never cared to figure out why because I don't use it anyway. The truck has 165K miles on it, I know it's high for the year, but you would never guess it looking at it, and the drivetrain has low miles on it now. Will need at least the idler arm and pitman arm replaced before it will pass inspection.
Car is being sold as-is but please do not hesitate to ask me any questions. I Can take additional pictures for interested parties if needed but the pictures of it already posted make a pretty good representation of the condition. I respond the fastest that I am able to

Chevy Volt replacement battery cost varies wildly, up to $34,000
Fri, Jan 10 2014There's a growing hubbub in the plug-in vehicle community over what looks like some ridiculously cheap replacement batteries for the Chevrolet Volt going up for sale. GM Parts Online, for example, is selling a replacement Volt battery with an MSRP of $2,994.64 but, with an online discount, the price comes down to $2,305.88. For the 16-kWh pack in the 2012 Volt, that comes to a very low $144.11 per kilowatt hour (kWH). But is it a real deal? How can it be, when a Chevy dealer may quote you a price of up to $34,000 to replace the pack? For a 16-kWh Volt pack, $2,305.88 comes to a very low $144.11 per kWh. But is it a real deal? Battery packs in alternative propulsion vehicles are usually priced by the kWh and, historically, they've been thought to be in the range of $500-per-kWh for OEM offerings. Since automakers are understandably secretive about their costs, we still don't know what the real number is today, but we do know it varies by automaker. Tesla, for example, has said it pays less than $200-per-kWH at the cell level but, of course, a constructed pack would be more. Whatever is going on, li-ion battery prices are trending downward. So, $144.11 certainly sounds great, but what's the story here? Kevin Kelly, manager of electrification technology communications for General Motors, reminded AutoblogGreen that GM Parts Online is not the official GM parts website and that, "the costs indicated on the site are not what we would charge our dealers or owners for a replacement battery. There would be no cost to the Volt owner if their battery needs replacement or repair while the battery is under the eight year/100,000 mile limited warranty coverage provided by Chevrolet." A single price tag also can't be accurate for everyone, Kelly said. "If the customer needs to have their battery repaired beyond the warranty, the cost to them would vary depending on what needs to be replaced or repaired (i.e. number of modules, which specific internal components need replacement, etc.)." he said. "So, it's hard for us to tell you exactly what the cost would be to the customer because it varies depending on what might need to be repaired/replaced. As a result, the core charge would vary." But, is the $2,300 price even accurate for anyone? Thanks to a reader comment, we see that this similar item on New GM Parts makes it look like the lithium-ion modules that Kelly mentioned – where a lot of the expensive bits are – are not included.
Survey says $25k barrier is a problem for EVs
Sun, 01 Dec 2013
The majority of consumers are more or less priced out of the market.
Electric cars are gaining popularity with the general public, but are they still too expensive? According to a survey 1,084 consumers by Navigant Research, a consulting firm located in Boulder, CO, 71 percent want their next car to cost under $25,000, while 41 percent won't go a cent above $20K. Looks like people are even thriftier than we'd originally thought.
Nissan Leaf sales get January jump as Chevy Volt trends downward
Mon, Feb 3 2014The cold January sales dip hit both the Nissan Leaf and the Chevy Volt last month, but when compared 2014 to 2013's first-month-of-the-year sales totals, one of the two early plug-in vehicles obviously came out on top. The top Leaf market also shifted away from Atlanta for the first time in months. Last year, the Leaf sold just 650 units in January, but it managed to move 1,252 last month, a 92.6-percent increase over 2013 but a big drop from the 2,529 sold in December 2013. Paige Presley over at Nissan told AutoblogGreen that the Leaf has now broken sales records for 11 months straight and that, "we see unique seasonality with some December pull-ahead demand based on federal and state tax incentives." The number one Leaf market also shifted away from Atlanta for the first time in months, moving back to San Francisco. That change could be short-lived. "We had some inventory constraint issues early in the month in Atlanta with end-of-year demand depleting stock," Presley said. "By the time we resolved that, the weather hampered sales." There was not as much good news on the Chevrolet front. Last month, the Volt sold 918 units, down from 1,140 in January 2013 and 2,392 in December 2013. It also marks the first time the Volt has sold in the three-digit range since January 2012, when it sold 603 copies. That string of solid months means that the plug-in hybrid has a roughly 12,000-unit lead over the EV since the two cars brought plug-in vehicles back to the mass market all the way back in December 2010. We will have our full report of January's green car sales up soon.
