    Project Cerberus

    So todays progress on project Cerberus was more weight reduction. I picked one off the list that I could tackle in a couple hours, so i tackled the headlight buckets. There is a little over a pound of excess metal that can be removed from each headlight bucket. I used a body saw for the bulk...

    I have heard some rumors. Nothing confirmed yet. Most likely would have to use a standalone trans controller.

    Project Cerberus

    I'm still debating on the trans. This thing still has to be a truck, so it had to be able to tow. I know the 48re can be built for the power, but I'm still debating on an 8 speed auto swap from a newer model truck.

    I dont know about the blower, but for the intake, if it's the stock one, a 12" swivel extension is your friend. You can go through the runner's for most of the bottom bolts. Other wise it's an eighth turn at a time with a wrench.

    Thank you for good wishes, I appreciate them. As well as the information you have shared. I now have some goals. I did some calculations after seeing what you posted, and you are right. There are some hefty goals here. I am going to update the first post to put those goals in, but knowing that...

    Power Steering Hoses

    I didn't do the install of them on this truck, they came on it when I bought them used. I only did the O-ring repair. so not sure about the rack bushings.

    Power Steering Hoses

    they are. that and the oil cooler lines are on my truck. both high quality. The power steering line adapter started leaking a few months ago and a quick oring change and it quit. oring was less than a dollar.

    Gas mileage

    Yeah, about 500 pounds or so if I heard right. Our speed limits in the states are a little higher, and I'm not always the best at following the rules. :D

    Gas mileage

    The auto in the QC kills that. I'm lucky to see 12.

    I'm not sure yet. Already to much low end torque to put to the ground, so I am thinking either turbo or nitrous. Gotta do some reading on the safe limits for each on the stock internals.

    I have read some pretty good things about the better throttle bodies, bbk or jtsvp. I will have one soon.

    I had some nest in the intake box on my tahoe once. Took me forever to figure out what was wrong.

    Not yet. Its next on the list. Gotta get through the holiday season before I spend money on myself though.

    Also check your intake box, they like to nest there and the nest can restrict airflow causing a rich condition

    Stupid Thermostat

    I have actually been down your way when I served in the Corps. But yeah, that's a bit far to travel to change a thermostat.

    Project Cerberus

    Did some more weight reduction work today, figured I would post some more weights. Some of this stuff is pretty small, maybe not worth your time, but I put in the work for some stuff I haven't seen done here yet. first, the amp. most people in a quest for weight reduction just remove it. But I...
