I would really appreciate some advice on my engine situation from anyone who knows more than I do. My 95 sub is the 8600 lb series w/4L80 trans and 5.7 ltr tbi engine.My issue is I just dont have much power. I should say that I think to start off with that this a small engine to put in this big of a truck but it came that way. So I need more power to tow trailers along with the truck itself. So do I swap for 454 or can I get more juice out of this 350?

Hi I was wondering if anyone has done a digital rendering. I would like to know of any software or photoshop that would be best for rendering a custom truck. Something easy to use but realistic.

There's a new truck magazine hitting the newsstands on January 26,2010 and its called American Truck. Some of you might recognize my name as the editor of Custom Classic Trucks, or going back a little further, Tailgate magazine. Anyway the new title is being launched for the folks at LMC Truck in Lenexa, Kansas by the editors of Custom Classic Trucks, Classic Trucks, and the now defunct Sport Truck. I'll be on here tomorrow morning to check if anyone has any questions, if not I'll just ramble on about some of the cool stuff we have in store coming up in the pages of American Truck. Thanks, John Gilbert

You could probably get away with a 6-inch lift, and maybe 37-inch tires. You might have to trim your front air dam a smidge, but that would be my suggestion. Do you plan on taking it off-road much? If so, I'd recommend going with 18-inch wheels and larger-sidewall tires. But if it's going to be primarily a street truck, 20s should be fine.

The site GM Inside News is reporting that in discussions with line workers at GM's Arlington, Texas assembly plant, he commented that he believed the Escalade should remain a body-on-frame, fullsize SUV, casting some doubt on industry speculation that the Escalade would eventually migrate to the unibody Lambda platform, shared with the Chevy Traverse and Buick Enclave.

Corona, Ca…advanced FLOW engineering (aFe), an industry leader in performance cold air intakes, filters and exhaust systems is pleased to announce the release of their new Silver Bullet Throttle Spacer for the 2003-08 Dodge Ram with V8-5.7L HEMI part number 46-32006. The Silver Bullet Throttle Spacers are designed using a serrated/helix design that thoroughly mixes the air/fuel charge for a complete burn increasing horsepower, torque and improved throttle response.

E.O. #D516-2). In recent testing, part number 46-32006 produced an astonishing 5hp and 7 lbs. x ft. of torque. Part Number 46-32006 retails for $139.00 and is available in stores now.

yes there is a bolt on kit. contact Dennis at: dennis@dddiscbrakes.com . Tell him Mike Cook (Vanishing Breed) sent you. He also has a very nice dual master cylinder kit which I recommend since you have a stock single bowl.
