winter beeter mods?
 
I have a 93 chevy 1 ton 4x4 with a 8inch lift, flat deck and dual rear wheels with 34 inch swampers.I use it for halling my sleds around. It has a 454 tbi engine in it that is stock except for daul 2.5 exhast and bottles. What should I do for mods? New intake mani with dual throttle bodys, twin turbos with low boost or???? Looking for some sweet suggestions that will go well with the mad max theme I got going on, Shes already got a snow camo paint job.

I have four feet of snow in my front yard, makes my truck a nesesity not gay dude. I suppose if I lived in cali like you I might have a differnt outlook though. I also dont think my truck is cool but it is fun as hell to drive in the winter!

Trucks are not gay. I could think of a million reasons why they are not gay, but that would be a huge waist of time because only a ricer would say something like that.

What is your budget for this project? I would throw a TT setup on it and beat the hell out of it. ;D

now that's just ------- dangerous.

trucks are not gay IF you use them for their intended purposes i.e. puttin dirt and metal and ---- in the bed.

trucks are gay if you're some 30 year old yuppie who works in an office as a paper pusher and just wanted a truck because you have a small dick, and have never once put any real stuff in the bed.

but anyways... i'd probably spray it, but it's a winter beater... just keep it runnin nice and good :)

Trucks are definitly not gay. I would love to have one to haul around engines and parts. I also would buy one for during the winter when my crx is parked so i don't have to use public transit and freeze my ass off everyday walking from the train to work :(.

Speaking of SUV's, saw something hilarious in my parents neighbourhood over the holidays: Buddy down the road had built himself this HUGE house, gorgeous yard, 3 car garage. Bought himself 2 trucks and an RSX (for commuting I guess). Neither the Hummer nor the Navigator fit inside the garage :D Saw him scraping his windows on Christmas day, cursing. I was thoroughly amused.

LMAO. and random, you whine too much.

I am thinking that a dual quad intake with throttle bodys off of a 350 and a twin turbo set up would be perfect, what sized turbos should I run? I will have to keep boost down 5 psi maybe. Let me clerify, a winter beater to me is something that is not a show truck. I have about $12000 canadian into it now It acually looked real nice till I snow camo'ed it but that just makes it more fun! I dont build ---- because I need to, cuz it works perfect as is I just cant leave any thing alone. Dr i see you ride to, I raced for years but I dont have a bike right now, I built a new sled that got costly so I will get a new cr450 in the spring.

Re:winter beeter mods?
 
I heard those 450's were pretty nice, except they are 4 strokes. :P Someday I might go for a 4 stroke, but not anytime soon. It's just not the same. ;)

I had a CR250 when I was 14. Loved it.

You're right... 2 stroke for sure.

con 01-12-2004 12:05 AM

Re:winter beeter mods?
 
I do agree I love 2 strokes, but for hair scramble races you cant compete. I would even consider anything but a kx250 with pro circut work if I only raced track and played!

Yeah but there's just something about firing twice as many times. hehe

Re:winter beeter mods?
 
well i dont like fords much but have to admit that my friends new F250 kicks serious ass. I dont think going scary fast in a truck is on my to do list unless its like a lightning or somthing... Making some kinda dually super huge ass truck fast is not somthing that comes to mind when thinking about cool stuff. I hate suvs tho...
