Looking for ideas/instructions?

Postby bobbabouie91 [OP] » May 04 2011, 12:13pm

I'm not sure if this is common knowledge to many of you but I just thought I'd share my little find. A few months ago while browsing I came across a link to an article by Truckin' magazine and discovered their tech install page. You'll have to do a little sifting to find articles specifically for GM trucks but they have hundreds of awesome articles and how-to's with detailed instructions, pictures, and part prices for almost anything you can think of. For installing fiberglass fenders/bedsides, train horns, painting your truck, lifting/lowering, and many more including quite a few articles on performance parts for 5.3l including dyno numbers to give you an idea of what to expect. If you've already been here I'm sorry for wasting your time, if not it's really worth a browse.

Great find but I think half the reason for an how-to article is for a personalized experience.

None the less, I will probably capatalize on your data mining and use the link.
Marine because.

I just found it helpful for getting an idea of the complexity of a mod I may have been thinking of doing, or with so many 5.3 performance articles and dyno numbers what kind of parts I might want to get and what kind of numbers I can expect to pull. It as some good articles about interior customization tips and simple body mods, it sprung a lot of ideas in my head so I thought I'd share my find, hope you enjoy!
