Blog Title: Slippi84

Ever since we started blogging stuff now everyone blogs everything. I can understand you have a build or persoanl experience where your not asking any questions but you have blogs like just got this need help picked up this part how do I put it on or how does this work. That is thread starer stuff not blogs. Exactly why I never was a fan of blogs is happening. We're blogging everything.

Well my dd trailblazer SS hydro-locked and will need a new engine and I just don't have the money to squeeze that into everything else so the day I said and hoped would never come is here...I have to part out the talon. I was back and forth the past couple of months but always talked myself out of it even though I knew that it made more sense to go a different direction as my situation is just different now than it was when I was updating the project like everything week or so. With 3 cars and two with go fast needs the talon had taken a back seat to the TBSS anyway. I will posting in the classified section shortly but just want to say thanks for everyones support along the way and sorry I couldn't pull threw with this build but life must go on.

	Sorry to hear this man. Good luck on your other projects.

	That's unfortunate sir. Just like how I was a few months back. I had all my parts on order, and a shell ready to rock, and had to cancel it all. Shit happens, life deals shit hands sometimes.

	That really blows I was looking forward to this beast. Good luck.

	Sorry to hear that man. Were you still running that itb im setup if so I'd def. be interested.
	Posted 05-20-2011 at 06:51 PM by DSM nOOb

	Yes the ITB setup and everything else is up for sale

	Why don't you part the gas gussler SS instead. It should be the other way around lol.

Because the TB is an awesome daily... It really sucks as far as the hydrolocking goes, I assume it was from an aftermarket cai? I've been super careful with mine, for some of those exact reasons.

Needless to say, now is the time to upgrade that engine since it's all apart anyway.. Hopefully the block/heads are still good because those LS2's can be pricey otherwise. I'm gonna pick some stuff up from ya and would love to pick up the shell if you weren't so far away. Best of luck with everything fella!

	Yeah like he said the TBSS is a great DD minus the hrdyolocking. I plan on building the TBSS motor and put a cam in it so it will be a torque monster and with a 150-200 shot on tap already it will be a 10 sec dd that I can put a baby seat in the back. A 2 seat caged 1g is not exactly a good dd.

	Some things are just more important than cars Slippi.... Eventually this will happen to just about all of us.... I just got my first house and I possibly might have to make the call and part with my build I'm working on so I'm absolutely dreading the fact that the day I have to make a decision is right around the corner.

	I thought I mentioned this in my other post, but should pm me a price on that shell of yours.
	Posted 05-21-2011 at 09:18 AM by constant_proj21

	Does that have an LS2 in it? I'll take the coils off your hands if so. PM me!

I didn't exactly see this coming but figured something was up. You went from posting thought build every week to nothing. Sorry to here but life is life. Sad you got so close though and now have to give it all up. Sucks you have to get rid of it all instead of maybe just the motor to fix the ss but I read your forsale ad and saw everything else going on in your life. Well good luck with what ever you do you, it was a fun ride.

	WOW man that really sucks. Good thing the world is suposed to end today (according to the news) so it really doesn't matter J/K
	Posted 05-21-2011 at 05:28 PM by BIGBLAZE79

	Let's help him out & get this stuff sold. A truly sad thing to hear :-(
	Posted 05-21-2011 at 06:13 PM by DWR-DSM

	Yeah the TBSS has a ls2 6.0 motor. The shell is going for $2k which is a steal for such a great shell. The cage alone cost 2800. Not looking to get rich just move on to the next thing for now. I have some stuff I'm surprised isn't already gone considering it's bad ass one off stuf or close to it. Like the ITB SMIM and the ACPT CF DS
	Posted 05-22-2011 at 02:38 AM by Slippi84

	I wish I could afford to build a track car only bc I would of grabbed the shell for sure.
	Posted 05-22-2011 at 07:37 AM by DWR-DSM

	If that shell wasn't so far away, I'd be ALL over it, no doubt... About to have the cage work on my car started here soon.

	I saw this coming. He hasn't had updates for close to a year.
	Posted 05-25-2011 at 05:02 AM by 2slow4utsi

	I would pick the tbss as well lol. If you need any lsx parts let me know I'll give you the number of the guy down the street. He has ton of parts.
	Posted 05-25-2011 at 05:37 AM by 50trimgst

	Sorry to hear, that sure sucks! But hope there will be a brighter day in return soon
