Thanks,
Yeah, got this truck last summer after running up the miles on what is now my brothers 02 chevy avalanch z71 up around 330,000 miles. I needed an upgrade so started looking around and picked this own off someone for $8,200 with 140,000 miles along with the upgrades, so i have not done anything to it but add the intake. Tops my list for my best purchase��

Yeah great trade, you will be able to build it adding whatever you want to it unlike some. Looks like alot of work but in the end it will be worth it. Good luck on the build!
