i made those myself from an original detroit badge....

the factory chevrolet badges im going to be using are the new 2008 suburban badges that are individual letters like the 2500/3500 trucks...

im going to scuff them up good and paint them flat black since the truck is going to be olive drab green.....

i might just use the flex fuel badges also, just for kicks.....cause if necessary, it will run on WVO......



what you guys think???

Exactly. Would be cool to put a 6-71 blower on it, too.

well at 21.5 to 1 compression, id say it would lift the heads off the motor, BUT, thick head gaskets and some cut pistons might just do it.........if i had the money, time and tools it would have one.....

Is anyone making lower comp. pistons for the 6.2? I have a 8-71 that is begging to go onto something.
