As the title states, 1993 GMC Jimmy with a 2005 5.3L truck motor with twin turbos. Built the truck a couple years ago and had my fun with it, just have some bigger projects going on and need to cash this one out. 

Motor: Mileage unknown, looked fresh when I opened it up. head studs, valve springs, 706 head castings and new ls9 cam. 80 pound seimens injectors and two walbro 255l inline fuel pumps run parallel for the E85 fuel support.

Turbos: rebuilt Holset H1C's, Headers are made from a mild steel header kit and are tig welded, 3" down pipes that merge into 4" exhaust that runs out behind the rear passenger tire, waste gates came off ebay dont really know the brand

Trans: th350, alto red clutches and kolene steels. shift kit, hardened outer intermediate race with new sprag, tsi converter.

Rear end: GM 8.5" with 308 gears gov lock and disk brakes.

Front diff: GM 308 gear set and axle from a 1993 AWD astro safari

Transfer case: AWD case from olds bravad, I just resently put this in

Other: This was pretty much a frame off restoration, the frame was completely disassembled, sand blasted then painted with industrial paint and reassembled with new prothane (urethane) bushings, all ball joints and steering components are new also, I guess I should say new two years ago, I probably have less than 2500 miles on the truck since the rebuild I am not sure of the mileage and ebay wanted a number so I just put 1, the title states that it was 106,646 on it when I bought it in 2000 . The suv also has 4 wheel disk brakes and has a hydro boost braking and power steering system, It works awesome. All the air conditioning components are there, i never charged it to know if it works, it WAS something I was going to work on as I had time. The interior was completely taken out and cleaned there is wear on the drivers seat, I just didnt get around to having it fixed, theres other small cosmetic issues just from its age, but everything is clean. Body itself has fresh paint but its NOT perfect and has some small scratches and chips, but you would have to look for them, there not too obvious. I put this project together with the intention of driving it, its not a show truck but it is a nice truck, had lots of fun with it and makes decent power . The tune was completed on a load bearing dyno by Done Rite Automotive Perfomance and made 555hp and 500lbs of torque on 13psi. I am open for international bidders however shipping is your

GM recalling over 243,000 crossovers over possible seat belt defect

Tue, 17 Aug 2010

2010 Buick Enclave - Click above for high-res image gallery
The summer of 2010's recall hit parade continues unabated today, with General Motors having just announced that it is asking 243,403 owners of its 2009-2010 Lambda crossovers to bring their three-row haulers in for inspection. The culprit? Second-row seat belts in select Buick Enclave, Chevrolet Traverse, GMC Acadia, and Saturn Outlook CUVs have "failed to perform properly in a crash."
According to GM, a second-row seat-side trim piece is to blame, as it can impede the upward rotation of the buckle after the seat is folded flat. As a result, if the buckle makes contact with the seat frame, cosmetic damage can occur, potentially requiring additional force to operate the buckle properly. So far, no great shakes, but in the process of applying that additional force, the occupant may push the buckle cover down to the strap, potentially revealing and depressing the red release button. As a result of this, the belt may not latch, or in certain cases, it may actually appear to be latched when, in fact, it isn't.

GM thinks Colorado and Canyon midsize trucks will lure crossover buyers

Tue, 29 Jul 2014

The invitation to come out and sample product at the General Motors Proving Grounds in Milford, MI is rarely dull, and after spending this morning driving preproduction versions of the Chevrolet Colorado and GMC Canyon all we can say is... under strict embargo. Sorry, America, we were as excited as many of you are to learn more about GM's new midsize truck range and take note of how they go down the road, but it's going to be September before we're allowed to share that with all of you. Here's to sweet suspense.
While we might not be able to talk about refinement or handling yet, we did find some of the product positioning and marketing statements from GMC and Chevy officials on hand at the program to be pretty interesting.
Of course, we all know that the literal competitive set for Canyon and Colorado is comprised of two comparatively ancient Japanese midsize trucks: the Toyota Tacoma (which currently owns this segment) and the Nissan Frontier. The Frontier's bones are as old as the 2005 model year, with 2009 marking the last time the truck was updated. The Taco was also launched in 2005, though it did see a freshening for 2012. The point remains that, in every facet from powertrain to dash plastics, the GM midsize truck twins are going to look positively space age by comparison when they hit the market for MY 2015.

GM delivers best Q3 sales since 1980, 2.4M vehicles sold

Wed, 15 Oct 2014

People are a weird sort. Even after registering over 70 recalls through the first three-quarters of 2014, General Motors saw its best Q3 results since Jimmy Carter was in the White House, registering over 2.4 million global sales between June and September on the back of strong results in the US and China.
US sales were marshaled by good results for GM's pickups, the Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra, which bumped the manufacturer's truck market share to 35.6 percent, up nearly three points from Q1 2014. Buick has seen healthy growth as well, with the Encore dominating its segment for the sixth month running.
It was China, though, that really bolstered GM's sales, as the company's efforts to top last year's record-setting 3.16 million units continued apace. Small SUV sales saw massive growth, with Encore, Chevrolet Trax and Captiva figures jumping 90 percent in Q3. Brand-wise, Chevrolet, Cadillac and Buick all saw sales gains in the PRC, with each recording double-digit year-over-year jumps. Cadillac sales alone were up 63 percent compared to the first nine months of 2013.
