    front axles????

    Just ask for Sonama 4x4 axles from the counter monkey or they will lock-up when you say Syclone or Typhoon. Syclone wasn't in the Pep Boys computer system when I bought mine.

    KB INTAKE

    Well, I happen to like my KB kit. The benefit IMO is not increased airflow, but rather colder air being drawn into the turbo. I had the K&N on the end of the crossover tube. The truck would run .1 quicker with the headlight and headlight bucket removed, because of the cold air reaching the...

    Not squeaky, but the entire dash assembly has mucho rattles over the bigger bumps and potholes.

    Does the Sonoma GT have alluminum bed like the SY?

    Actually, both Sonoma GT and the Syclone have magnesium beds. I don't know where you received that silly "aluminum bed" information. :roll:

    NOS Sy/Ty fog lamp assemblies on eBay - very nice!

    I like the NOS fog lamps I bought off Ebay very much. I wanted the original equipment over the Blazer brand just to keep everything GM. However, the lights I bought off of Ebay had the metal housings, just like the Sy originals. Also, yes, you can buy the Blazer lenses at Autozone and they are...

    Will 94+ front lower control arm fit a Sy/Ty???

    I would love to have a new coilover suspension, but I'll never be able to afford it. I'm hoping to just rid myself of some of the sway. IMHO, are stock sway bars are crap. They have a decent 1 1/4" diameter, but then they neck down to 7/8" on the last 6"s or so on the ends. A 1 1/2" bar would be...

    Will 94+ front lower control arm fit a Sy/Ty???

    I was looking at the lower, front control arm on a 01 ZR2 S-10. The anti-sway bar is attached with conventional endlinks, unlike our bayonet style attaching points. Will these A-arms and sway bar fit my fit my Syclone? I want a larger sway bar. Addco makes a HUGE 1 1/2" front sway bar that fits...

    1.7 crane rockers

    Hmmm, don't know about the size of the pushrod hole on Vortecs, I meant the stock or L35 heads. But, even if the Vortec holes do need enlargement, machine shops only charge $20 or so to do the operation.

    1.7 crane rockers

    FYI, you'll have clearance the stock pushrod hole in the head to run those 1.7s to keep the pushrod from rubbing.

    Whats your fastest times stock or almost stock?

    Yep. I don't see why Bandimere can't stay open on Novbember days today. I wish I was still racing. :(

    Whats your fastest times stock or almost stock?

    ALL of the below times were at a track with an altitude of 5,000 ft above sea-level. So they'll be about 1/2 second slower than low-elevation trucks. 100% stock I ran a 14.0 at 94 mph. Stock with a K&N cone filter on the stock crossover tube-13.9 at 95 MPH. Stock with the K&N and a cutout before...

    Stock valvetrain with roller rockers.

    The chip was burned for me with the 1.6 rockers. However, I don't know what the rockers gained for me, because I changed them along with the turbo and chip.

    New best at an altitude of 5,830ft.

    Funny as it sounds, the exterior is going to be the last thing I re-do. Besides, right now I don't mind driving it in the snow and salt melt. :wink:

    New best at an altitude of 5,830ft.

    Yep, after running 13.00 twice in the 'ol Syclone I hit the magic number. I've achieved what I wanted to, run 12s in the 'ol pickup. It did a best on 12.89 at 104.33 with a 1.77 60' time. Might have gotten a 12.7, BUT with the cold air my stock wastegate couldn't keep up with the air density...

    Best Drag Radials With Stock Wheels

    Just FYI, the 255/50/16 BFG drag radials are about one inch taller than the stock tires. This will cause a lowering of the effective gear ratio, which may or may not be beneficial, depending on your particular build. The Nitto 245/50/16 drag radials are the same size as the stock tires so...

    "S" looking heater hose

    GM still has these hoses. I bought a couple for myself from Dal Slabough at Van Devere- 1-877-448-5451. They were about $10 apiece.

    Local Ty ran 12.2 ....

    Ry told me he ran a 12.0 last year. I 'think' the MPH was 114, but I'm not 100% positive.
