Looks really good, I love what you have done with it so far. Keep it up

The engine code is LH8 basically its Silverado 5.3 without DOD or VVT. she goes pretty good.

heres what it threw down on the dyno

Im going for ultra sleeper mode, most look at a midsize truck and think pfft crappy V6 at most. little do they know my babys packing a supercharged v8 hahah

Good looking truck...nice work my friend

Yes I was hoping you'd post up in here. I knew there was someone on the nation who had a pretty bad ass gp, was gonna hit you up about some mods on my dads ride.

I dont have any videos, but with only 6.5 lbs you can barely hear the supercharger over the exhaust lol. I got a billet 6 rib pulley kit coming, and I'm gonna pulley down to a 3.4 we'll see what it sounds like after that.


Thanks for all the kind words guys, I've been looking into getting a grand prix for myself. Now that a found a cool ass forum I just might look into it further
