Heres my Silverado.

Even though it's 2WD it sees more off-road than most 4WD's around here.

Thats what a high rise wing will get you ... Unwanted attention from idots because you have a funny looking wing on your economy car that creates more drag then what it is worth.. If you want stealth get a low rise and debadge that bitch .. Of you want flamming homos to try and **** with you keep the wing !

I like the low rise wing ....


Good for cops too !!!
No attention ***** here..

2001 5.3 Silverado Reg Cab short box 4x4.... mid 14's stock just a tune. It's pretty close to what my redline runs in stock form. I really wish first gear was shorter in this truck, im doing nearly 50 mph before it shifts into second with a 6000rpm limiter. I know it's a fair margin quicker than an 08 5.3 Extended cab as they were run many times side by side before and after tuning.

I would like to see what it would do beside the hemi ram.... a fellow co worker has one but it's the quad cab, would really like to see what another RCSB would be like.

What kind of tune did you get? I cant see a tune knocking off that much time from a stock 5.3 Silverado.

What a load of **** my friend.

The new 5.3 wouldn't do that with just a tune and the new ones walk all over the older 5.3's, even the new 4.8 will pull on the older 5.3's. The last kid who thought I cared how fast my truck was had a 2007 Silverado Classic 5.3 it was a good fight for half of first gear. To say your truck would beat a new 5.3 is like saying a 1997 Z28 is faster than a 1998.

stock extended cab vs. short box regular cab.... dunno what to tell ya bud. The new 5.3 is 0.4 more compression and a little different head. Not gonna be a huge difference between output... couple that to a truck that's pretty well 1000 pounds heavier than mine.

A little different head, try alot different the new 5.3 non-FF uses LS6 heads same as my LS2 C6. The Extended cab is not 1000lbs more than a standard cab especially with yours being 4WD. You are wrong plain and simple so save the us the BS and get over it.
