    I work every muscle group each week and some times lacking areas twice a week. My shoulders have grown a lot on this bulk and my back has always been my strongest muscle group. However I'm right side dominant and so my left tricep is noticeably smaller then my right. I've really been trying to...

    Weight Lifting/Body Building/Strong Man/Training thread

    I haven't ever used a peaking program before. Probably something I should try. I've been training now with proper diet for 3 years. Currently I'm bulking. I'm up to 190lbs from 160 in June of last year. I consume roughly 3600 calories a day and 400g of that are carbs so I should have the energy...

    LML with a blown motor

    I've put about 4000Km on my built motor LML and its been great. I've seen 3 LML's go through the shop that built my motor with cracked pistons. All running mild tuning and simple bolt ons. My motor never broke but I decided to build it when I was doing my head gaskets before it broke. When we...

    Installing boost gauge on LML

    The cold side pipe is off the truck finally. Now ive seen a few threads of guys tapping the plastic so i figured id try it but the guy also used some kind of sealant as well. I'm curious what sealant i should use if any and what size hole do i need to drill for a 1/8th NPT tap?

    Installing boost gauge on LML

    Ok i got it off the butterfly valve now getting off the intercooler is my next problem. It the same system with the spring load ring but it is a cramped spot to twist and pull at the same time. I removed the air box and the bracket the air box plate sits on to gain access but its still difficult...

    Edge CTS dash mount

    Does anyone have a CTS with a analog egt and boost gauge? Does the universal CTS pillar pod adapter fit in a triple gauge pod?

    Edge CTS dash mount

    Does anyone know if the edge CTS dash mount will fit on a 07 up interior with a dual gauge pillar. I looks like it would be pretty tight if it does work. I just think it would make for a cleaner look rather than buying a triple gauge pod and CTS pod adapter.

    My first diesel

    The LB7 engines 01-04 do not have an egr system and the pcv is already routed to the ground. Lb7s also to my knowledge don't even come with a catalytic converter. The 04.5-06 LLYs and 06-07 LBZ have a egr and the pcv is routed into you air intake which requires a re-route to atmosphere. IMO a...
