I am selling my 2001 Silverado LS standard cab long bed, with 117,000 miles. The truck is in beautiful condition with some surface rust on frame (has not seen winters since I have owned it) with rebuilt 5.3 engine (truck came with 4.8, replaced with 2002 5.3 with 20,000 miles), transmission, rear-end, drive shaft, suspension, brakes, new tires, custom exhaust, and tune. I bought the truck in 2005 with 78,000 miles for $9,000 and have put over $25,000 in mods. Mods include, but not all, 5.3 W/ ported/polished heads with 5 angle valve job. Manley valves- 1.65 exhaust 2.02 intake, PAC Beehive springs. Custom Lunati CAM 218/224 int/exh @ 0.05" duration 0.558" / 0.560" int/exh lift 112+4 LSA. Roller rockers and hardened pushrods.

Tuned by KLUG'S SS. New brakes, battery, belts, all fluids changed as of 2013. The truck puts out 500hp+ at rear wheels. The only reason I am selling is because I am looking for a new project or toy. Please don't waste my time with ridiculous offers, joy ride fetishes, scams of buying it and having it shipped, or any other BS. If you are truly interested in the truck, call me and make an appointment to see it in person or at least call me with questions. Truck is currently stored next door at neighbors. Ask for Jeff five seven four seven zero seven five one eight eight.

 I wanted to add that the mods made were done around 100k miles and then again around 105k miles. The body has 117k miles on it, the transmission, drive shaft, rear end, brakes, coltracs, second cam shaft (had a Z06 cam first swap), upper valve assembly, oil pump, have about 5k miles on them. I average about 1500 miles a year on the truck. The oil gets changed before storage, after, and usually during the summer. I use castrol semi synthetic 10w30, with either a wix or Pureone oil filter. The radiator is stock with new core that is twice the size as stock with added extra trans cooler. She has two fuel pumps running 42lb injectors. I usually run the highest octane available and mix it with 110 racing fuel, about half and half. The front tires are 245/70/16 and the rears are 285/60/16. My goal was to make a sleeper and she has performed very well!

Chevy Corvette gets Valet Mode with Performance Data Recorder [w/video]

Mon, 18 Aug 2014

For the 2015-model-year, Chevrolet introduces Valet Mode for the Corvette, an enhancement to the Performance Data Recorder (PDR) already available and to your peace of mind. The PDR already captures 720p HD video with a windshield-mounted camera, records interior audio with a cabin microphone and gathers telemetry data using GPS, saving the data to an SD card in the glovebox. You can then watch your track-day antics with various information overlays on the center console screen.
Valet Mode will let you hit 'Replay' when your car gets pulled up front smelling vaguely of fricasseed clutch. Turned on by entering a four-digit code, it also locks the interior storage spaces and turns off the infotainment system. It can't be turned off until the code is re-entered. There's a press release below with more information as well as a video that explains how it works, with the obligatory dig at the 'Vette's biggest foe.

GM takes heat for aborted Silverado riff on 'Boston Strong' at World Series

Thu, 31 Oct 2013

During game five of the World Series, Chevrolet was set to do a spot of marketing for the 2014 Silverado - fans at Busch Stadium in St. Louis would hold up placards that spelled out the words "Silverado Strong," a theme that Chevy has been promoting since the Silverado's launch with the song "Strong," by Will Hoge. The St. Louis promo was ultimately called off, though, over concerns that it'd be insensitive to the visiting Boston Red Sox. (You can see the image of what the stunt would have looked like above, courtesy of one timely Reddit user.)
Now, the Busch Stadium stunt might not have been a big deal, had the St. Louis Cardinals not been playing the Boston Red Sox. Following the tragic events in Boston during the marathon back in April, the phrase "Boston Strong" gained traction among the city's citizens, especially at sporting events. So, you can imagine that Chevy's appropriation of the phrase might not sit well with some fans.
The stunt was ultimately shelved after images of the signs went viral before the game, leading to a bit of a public backlash. Chevy spokesperson Michael Albano said of the promo that it was meant to show the brand's "commitment to baseball and its fans." But after the images went viral, the company "realized there was the possibility that we may offend some of the very fans we were trying to honor," Albano told Automotive News via email.

Supercharged 2015 Chevy Corvette Z06 takes the C7 beyond the ZR1

Mon, 13 Jan 2014



The Z06 is just about everything we got in the last ZR1, but better.
After a bright-yellow false start, here is the real thing: the fourth-generation, 2015 Corvette Z06. If Chevrolet makes a ZR1 version of the C7 Corvette, it's going to be absolutely mega, because the Z06 is just about everything we got in the last ZR1, but better.
