"OFFICIAL" What did you do to your D-Max today?
- Thread starter Hot COCOAL
- Start date
I got 60% overs, fuelab liftpump, wheels, Nitto 420s and a little more TLC over the last couple months. But today I just cleaned the diet Sunkist bottles and other misc. trash out of the pass side. Oh and I took her out for a few minutes and beat her like a filthy Bitch!
Getting it closer and closer...
As the saying goes "one part at a time"...
Man that looks good Cocoal!:thumb:
Holy shit Bri
:thumb:
So which one of your friends works at the emissions center?
Good man, it's always nice to feel a go pedal that "really" works
Hey thanks man!
It's been allot of effort to clean everything, swap out the fasteners to solid chrome ones, degrease the parts, paint, sand, re-paint, clear coat the parts and swap all my other stuff over to the new longblock...
I won't lie, she takes a good picture
It's just rattle can and it has it's flaws, and I didn't bake it so it chips pretty easy (I've been doing touch up with a tiny Estes brush already :rofl: )
But the big picture was to create a color scheme I really liked, and then when I felt like it was "perfect" I'll spend the money on PC
:thumb:
I've been more interested in getting the hard parts I wanted and getting it back on the road...
And so far I've got a new stock CP3, SoCal damper, DP pinned H2O pump, new idler pulleys and tensioner pulley, the new GM reman engine of course, Mishimoto silicone hoses and thermostats, I'm putting together a custom feed/return line set up on -AN fittings W/distribution block, I might get a new radiator (might) and I'm ordering a new 3794va from DP hopefully on Friday!!!
Damn, it's been broke down since the 3rd week of February...

So far this week I've :
Pulled the work bed
Installed 2" drop shackles
Painted the frame
Picked up a used bed for the price of Installing a leveling kit on his 2500 hd
Installed a muffler delete pipe
Tinted the windows today
Test fit my new wheels / tires
Hope in the next couple days to get my traction bars built and the rear leafs pulled to get it lower.

:woott: :happy2::woott:
Ya know, after 2.5 years on this built motor running around on the 600hp tune, i figured i would be use to the power and want more........ maybe im a weird one or everything else i drive is slow cause this tune still puts a giant smile on my face after a WOT run and setting you back in the seat. it sure makes all i did to it worth while :happy2:
Im kind of the same way.. Except my smile comes from my "big" tune.. Which is only around a 100hp tune lol
Today I did a lot, manifolds/uppipes, 3" boost tubes, port/polished/batmo turbo by Yellowchevy and turbo blanket by Levi. Had my boost tubes and intake tube powder coated to the same color as my truck, had the manifolds and uppipes ceramic coated and heat wrapped. Was a lot of work to say the least.

How much better is the turbo now?
Night and day difference over stock.
