No Killa for a long time this year!

well I had enough of this crap to make me decide to rip the motor all apart and rebuild it with a PSP kit, PSP heads and mod max cams, and just about everything else I need to upgrade except the works 140 blower for now.

I don't know whats wrong with my truck but by the time I rip it all apart and rebuild it I'm sure I figure it out and if not I'll have a rebuilt motor anyway to handle a ***** load of power!!!!!

so this year is going to have a slow start for me, I probably won't have my truck out for a very long time. 3 months atleast I would say, probably 4 to 5 though.

atleast I got my bike for the summer time.

all I can is one thing, I won't have to worry about broken rods when I get done.

You might want to look into the crower cams. So far the 4 sets out there have been working awesome.

I've said it before "and I'll say it again"

"YOU NEED SERIOUS HELP KILLA"
AND YOU GOT WAAAAAAAAAAAAY TOO MUCH MONEY

AND YES I'M JELOUS
Don't hide it, Divide it

Good Luck Joe on the Rebuild
I can only imagine your gonna go for the gusto,

Can I ask a stupid question, why is it that everytime I hear someone talk about doing a motor their L is down for 1/2 a year. WTF is that about. It takes one day to build a motor and one to put it back in. Ok I'll give it three if you gonna do some detailing while it's out. Maybe a week to get the parts, I bet you'll have it ready for Cecil if you try ???

I don't know man...you are just asking for more headache in not figuring out what the problem is before you rip it apart. I've been there before (not with the L) and I was more pissed off after I got everything back together and still had the same problem. I wound up selling the freakin car to a friend (cheap) who just happened to be in my garage when I was working on it for the 4th time for the same problem.

Good luck though.

Hey Joe, send Rob a round trip ticket and put him up at a 5 star. Faster and cheaper


Oh, and ask him to bring a real table.

well that's one way to make changing the plugs easier.
are you going to do the motor work yourself? If your buying all new parts anyway why don't you just keep your truck running with your current motor and see what it will take? good luck, hope your truck isn't sitting for long.
