When are you running it?

ill be running it as soon as it hits 1000 miles and i change the oil once.

most of the planned mods arent power related...... remote start, the sub and amp out of the ta (so the birdy can be lighter) tint the front side windows to match the rest of the truck...

plan on getting a cai, and cut out soon.......and ill be letting bill go to town on the tune as soon as i get some baseline numbers

What I don't understand is why GM can build that truck, but tehy won't build teh standard cab SS pickup(like teh old 454SS).

The GMT800, which the current pick ups are built off of, are not certified to take the LS2. The GMT360, a totaly different chassis which sits under the Tblazer, Envoy, Assender, Saab 9-7x, and the SSR is certified to handle it after the SSR got the upgrade last year.
You can get a 5.3 HO motor making 310 in a short bed, standard cab, 17 inch wheels..because I saw it and my jaw dropped. Price was around 22k too. Upgraded monotube suspension, G80 rear...lots of goodies.
You can also get the Silvy SS with the Vortec Max 345hp 6.0 motor in 2wd, but only in extended cab, long bed form.

Anyway, the new GMT900 trucks are rated for the 6.2 400hp engine that can only be found, right now, in the 2007 Caddy Escalade. There is also a posibility of the LS2 finding its way in a 2wd truck and there Mark Ruess who said that the next gen Silvy SS will be 2wd only.
