I haven't owned a diesel yet but started to think about it when I decided to order a new truck this week. Driving one at the local GMC made up my mind so I ordered a Fire Red 2005 Sierra (CC, LB, DA) a few days ago. I'm taking the best features of my current two trucks and combining them into this one (horsepower mods, 8" lift, 37" tires, 4.56 gears, audio and video upgrades ect...). The truck will probably go from the dealer to my shop and stay there until the mods are complete. I'll post details as this comes today. The dealer tells me that the truck should arrive sometime in December.


2005 Sierra HD (CC,LB, DuraMax) - on order
2005 C6 Millennium Yellow Corvette convertible - on order
2005 300C (http://www.tbyrne.com/300/side.jpg) - Mods going on now!
2002 Silverado HD (http://www.tbyrnemotorsports.com/Silverado/02silverado.html) - 8" lift + much more - buy me!
2002 Supercharged 8.1 Suburban (http://www.tbyrnemotorsports.com/Suburban/02suburban.html) - 13.93@ 95.79 - buy me!
2001 Grand Prix GTP (http://www.tbyrne.com/GrandPrix/GP2004side.jpg) - buy me!

Sounds like a plan. Congrats and enjoy it. Can't wait to see it when
it's done! You're obviously loaded like Broker with that sig. Make it
happen and show it off!

I'll post some pics as the project goes along. I can't leave any of my vehicles alone so they usually end up modified to some extent. Some of the wildest has been the 13 second Suburban and a '98 Z-28 that made 672 rear wheel horsepower.

tbyrne, I see you made it from FSC. It is good to have you onboard! I want to know how the 4.56 work for you also. Good luck and enjoy your DMax!

Thanks!


The mods pile will be starting off with the gears. I should have them this week. I'm going to wait until after SEMA to get the power mods together. I'd like to see if there is anything new while I'm not there.

I'll miss that truck even though I don't drive it as much as I'd like to.
