The new Eaton wouldnt have been visible anyway with that cooler on it....but I happen to be very impressed with this....and honestly, I like that its not something that leaps right out at you. _____________________________ (in reply to 94rt10ohio) Post #: 5

Maybe a Z06 engine in a roomy Silverardo with a aftermarket SC, then you would have the wow when you go and the wow when opening the hood  _____________________________ -94 Viper RT/10<--Click -04 Ram SRT-10<--Click Supercharged! -05 Ram 4x4 Hemi (in reply to DevilsReject) Post #: 6
