wish list

[1500cheyenne96]

K&N intake, $280,Edelbrok throttle body $500 12 pack for both, True dual flowmaster exaust $400 don't know how many the guy had, replaced bench with 40/60 split $250 from junk yard 1 can of WD40 and another 12 pack, Eaton locker $750 lost count on that one. So far can't complain about anything love to hear the intake and exhaust when you get on it and you gotta have a rest for your right arm and it's nice to leave 2 strips of rubber instead of one

Ok, I'll bite. What is a BBHO? and who's booty is it-why would I ask, I don't even know you guys

I have just done tune up and just installed dual exhaust - FMs of course. Sounds really good.
Also added keyless entry and alarm system last night.

Would like to lift the body a couple of inches. Not sure- just looks low to the ground as I have had 4x4s for the last several trucks.

Not got the bucks now, but thinking 16" wheels would ride better, look better. Any advise on that is appreciated.

I have a cb from past truck and gonna look over the antennas you guys mentioned.

Got to swap out the radio first from old s-10 Blazer. Got hooked on mp3 player.

Also mounted GPS just above the rear view mirror-SWEET. no one would even see it from the outside.

I definitely would like to get the K&N filter but that too will have to wait a while. The Mrs. is giving me the evil eye :-(

Looks like I have a lot of work to do-thanks again.

Man, I just don't know. I still beleive those K&N filters are just way over rated and very expensive for what they are.

Well, it all started when I wanted to paint my grille...

I will take it under advisement. On my bike I saw real numbers off the dyno when I made changes. I would be interested if anyone out there had access to one to do their own before and after on this engine..I don't trust advertisements.

I have a Honda 1100 - pipes and K&N gave me 13% increase in HP on dyno. Interesting, a hper-charger did little. It is the nature of the specific engine.

THis is exactly why I am asking you guys as you have the knowledge on these 350s.

While I am here. Where the heck are the tie downs on a '96 cargo box?
It came with a bedliner. Do I drill thru the plastic to get at 'em? Surely it came with something from the factory????

Not sure if this is what you`re looking for but I`ll say it anyway.I instantly got better gas mileage from doing a few things.I went from 350 to 370 miles/tank or so out of a tank of gas to a little more than 400 miles/tank.

Trashed all the restrictive stock air intake ducting and got an open element filter.Prolly not a good idea if you do a lot of heavy mud riding,which I dont.

My smog pump froze up so I yanked it and got a shorter belt and plugged all the holes and such.May not be able to do that in your state.

Trashed the mechanicl fan clutch and shroud and found an electric fan with shroud at pull-a-part.I think it was from a caddy.It fit my radiator perfect.Plus now I can stand inside the engine bay in front of the accessories to work on it.Cant say I noticed any power increase but my mileage really got better.

I think fog lights are a great idea because they are also a safety feature.
