Just waiting for the new heads and then I can get to work on it! Done buying all of the small stuff. Everyone convinced me to ditch the 4l60e flexplate finally.

Cookie Monster still alive?! I'll never forget that wheelie video from way back on the trans am, and the wicked header piping on that engine. Beautiful car and cool to see you are still around, hope all is well.

Kenny, thanks for the multimedia updates, looking forward to see where push the fox to this year, keep us updated!!

Did some swip swapping around. Found a new set of 3"bs wheels. polished. Had them powdered. Ended up just buying v series centers since thats where my heart is.
Swapped from a 7" big gun to a 6' so I can lower the car more without cutting into the trunk and such.

I guess its finally time to get to work.

What kind of mpg do you get with the duramax? I've read on FB people get really good mpg.

I do. I didnt put a ton of miles on it last year. less than a thousand. I have 4 vehicles to drive now. so it keeps wear and tear down for sure. i cruise it to dinner a few times a week. car shows and meets here and there.

LOL Correct.
IT gets 22-23 at 60-65 cruise set unloaded.
best of 17.1 at 77 cruise set
best of 15.5 at 83 cruise set.

I average 10.2-10.5 every tank.

10 even towing that trailer at 60
6.9-7.2 towing the trailer and my red rcsb at 80.

ITs about half of what everyone claims.

Badass truck though.
