Ooh, I take that back! I do believe one of them crammed a GSX-R in the back of his once in a while, but I may be thinking of someone else.

They're cool trucks though!

yeah i knew i wanted a truck for duty purposes but the only real two requirements i had was either a nice sporty performance type or big beefy off road type. i wasn't really feeling the stripped toyota on steelies. it has a bed liner but im going to remove it and get a spray in just for better durability. i wont abuse the truck and there wont be anything in it all the time, but it's nice to be able to move things when i need to or bring my tools somewhere if im doing some sidework or what not.

An LS1 is technically a 346.

Re: Where are the Chevy guys at?

They are lined with an iron sleeve which limits how much you can bore the block. I've seen guys stroke it to 383 with no sleeves.

Oh yeah, forgot some links, check these out.
