    LQ4/9 Swap into '94 K1500

    Apologizing for the novel in advance, bear with me here. Okay, so. Plans are decided. I had to get my left femur re-broken on the 20th due to a non-union (never healed) when I broke it a year and a half ago. Been working part time limping my way around since July of 2014. Once my legs healed...

    Lowered 4wds?

    Looking to do this same kind of thing. Bothers me when people are like "I don't see the point." Yeah, thats the point. I see the point, you don't. Hence the reason I'm doing it; its for me, not you. I don't plan on going crazy though. Just a couple inches lower than stock and its totally...

    LQ4/9 Swap into '94 K1500

    It will be far from a permanent DD lol. Just one or two winters off the bat. Thats why I don't want to make it ridiculous. If my boss can have a compound turboed Cummins pushing 700RWHP as a DD, I can have a dope gas-powered truck with twins as a DD lol I should have time to get most if not...

    LQ4/9 Swap into '94 K1500

    Yeah, just doing twins for less lag (yes, I know a well tuned single can be setup to spool just as quick) and the cool factor. That being said, I already have the LQ4. I was definitely hoping to avoid the stroker route, without much for engine machine shops around here. (Closest one is 2.5hrs...

    LQ4/9 Swap into '94 K1500

    Well, I'm looking heavily into the world of boost at the moment. I'd really like to do a low boost twin turbo setup on this LQ4. I'm thinking 600ish HP, give or take whatever is reasonable. With the time I have on my hands, I would like to look into doing a forged rotating assembly. The truck...

    RideTech 4-link Conversion on a 4WD?

    My 4L80E is a brand new GM Goodwrench Reman. Think I could throw a converter and the transgo kit in it and be good for around 600BHP tops?

    RideTech 4-link Conversion on a 4WD?

    It won't be seeing offroad action. Maintaining the 4WD simply for winter driving in the great white North! I'm thinking of possibly using their universal triangulated 4 link instead. I'm not sure I like the idea of the panhard bar. I'm still learning about suspension It will be seeing...

    Any opinions on how hard it would be to make RideTech's universal triangulated 4 link setup fit? Not for lowering purposes (although would like 2" lower) but for handling purposes primarily. Thanks guys http://www.ridetech.com/store/weld-in-air4link-triangulated.html

    Anybody have a system in their babe?!

    In my '94 I'm running Infinity Kappa 4x6s in my dash powered by my Alpine CDA-9853 deck, Rockford Fosgate T165 6.5" coaxials (would like to invest in some components next year) in Q-form Kick Panels powered by a Rockford P300x2, and two Rockford Fosgate P3's in a not very great downfiring box...

    Chris6060's 1994 Silverado Z71 350

    Okay. So. Much progress. I have no drivers license for 8 months for unexplained reasons. I'll explain if there is enough interest, but do not care to bore you guys unnecessarily with my life details, this is not a blog. So I have acquired a 2005 LQ4 (6.0), a 2004 4L80E brand new remanned from...

    RideTech 4-link Conversion on a 4WD?

    Hey guys. I'm going a much more extreme route with my '94 than ever anticipated. I'm curious as to if there is any reason this kit wouldn't fit a 4WD K1500? http://www.ridetech.com/store/1988-1998-chevy-c1500-airbar-system.html

    LQ4/9 Swap into '94 K1500

    Those part numbers would be awesome. I finally have my hands on my motor and transmission. Got a 2005 6.0L LQ4 with a NP241C transfer case with it (160,000km, both out of same '05, guy just needed the transmission) and I picked up a 2004 GM remanned 4L80E as well. I need to find the mating...

    Synthetic to Conventional

    Changing weight due to different temperatures will never hurt anything. (We get +30C in the summer and -40C in the winter here) Changing types of oil and stuff, can cause small issues (burning), but burning oil is fine as long as its not smoking hard. My boss had an LS7 Corvette Z06 that burned...
