SunCoast Stage III. Not really by choice... bad u-joint trashed tail housing between alli and x-case so I upgraded at the time. Now this same thing has happened to me again. :(

superchips and van aaken stoopid box. Superchips got here a couple of days earlier but pretty much both at the same time. It was fun and a complete sleeper cause it still had stock exhaust, wheels and tires. Rolling burnouts in 2nd were no prob and

Superchips Model 2805. Absolutely the harshest shifting, most defueling programmer available.

I had one of the first batch of LiLLY's in the country. I had special ordered it as a 3500SRW so it guaranteed I'd get an LLY, since LLY was not on the order sheet. They never made a SRW LB7.

I remember Killing the Kitty first. You have to pull it out the FRONT of the truck, and have it jacked WAY up.


I also remember driving to Florida and back in 4 days to pick up a machine when the truck had just 500mi on it.

Good times.
I took pictures and posted it on TDP.

Other fond memories...

Blue was 2 days old. I drove my Ford to work so Kat could drive the new truck, IIRC.

I get a call at work...

BRRRRINGG! BRIGGG!

"Hello, Quality Inspection. Pat speaking"

"This is Kat, how do you put your truck in 4x4."

"Well, there is a button on the left side of the dash that says 4 Up Arrow. That's ...

WAIT!!! WHY DO YOU WANT TO KNOW HOW TO PUT MY BRAND NEW TRUCK IN 4x4????"

I tested a couple of tunes for Diablo sport (They didn't have any California LB7's) that resulted in the current version of the LB7 Predator tune. Still have it loaded in the truck...don't ask....:eek:

Me too!!! I thought it was bad ass, then I got the edge juice w/att and thought it was the shit, then got the bright idea to put them together and holy sheet I had the most bad ass truck on the planet...:D:D:D And then about 1000 miles later I had EFI with the MCR3 and I was just speechless, and soon after it was on to the gauges, the tranny, then came the lift pump, and a turbo, and another turbo, and dual fuelers, and a set of bars, and a hitch, and a locker, and an unbreakable drive shaft, and a......:eek: :banging:

Wow that's getting expensive I'm going to stop thinking about it now. :rofl:
