Default 1995 Silverado TT.. Redsled
Finally switched from the bottle to boost. Been wanting too for a few yrs but finally got around to doing it. Should have done this years ago!!! The truck is still mainly built for the street but we will see what the track has to offer..

Great looking powerplant! I like the smoothed valve covers and color matching with the intake top & body. It looks very tidy. I love the stance of the truck too. Bravo

That is a very nice build.... What are some of the specs if you don't mind sharing and where did you end up mounting the coil packs?

Thanks

Also curious about the specs and your impression of the hi-ram. I just put one on my build, but have not fired it yet.

It looks like the oil distribution block is directly above the vapor system... nice plumbing!

Judging by the pile I left in my pants after going for a ride in this beast, I'd say the hi-ram works just fine.

I was more wondering if it killed off any low end or made any issues down low. I have a similar build with l33, 317 heads, hi ram but with a single turbo and 4l80.

I wouldn't trade the hiram for anything else. Perfect plugs from all cylinders, no low end loss, and pulls like a freight train all the way to 7600.

they bolted right up!!!! I redrilled the rotors and axles. The rear is narrowed 5" and the tubs are widened also. Lots of room for tire.
