Cant figure this out
I bought a 96 2wd two door tahoe a couple months ago and have had nothing but problems with it. It will loose power and if you give it gas it'll die. After it dies it will start and run fine for awhile. especially does it on rough roads or when you hit a big bump in the road. Its been getting...- domepiece

I haven't driven this beast in about a month but last night i Put a 4" exhaust on it from the turbo back. Kinda sucks when you have to keep everything above the frame. Trying to find a 8" stack. Should have one on it next week. the truck sounds way better and runs better too.- domepiece

I finally filled the huge hole in the tranny tunnel. I had to kick a cat out of the damn truck this morning because it had crawled through the hole. It's all done and seamed sealed and I added a fuel filter to it also. It came off the fed-ex truck and has a cool little fuel warmer on the...- domepiece

Well I was hoping to be driving this damn thing this week but the damn slave cylinder was giving me fits. I spent probably 6 hours trying to bleed the dodge slave cylinder with no luck. I actually think I had it bled but the chevy master probably didn't push enough fluid. So I went and bought a...- domepiece

I have a very short amount of time to get this swap done and get my truck back on the road. I'll worry about cleaning it up later on. I got quite a bit done. Just have some wiring to finish up. The Brown-Lipe and shortened driveshaft and new u-joints are installed and ready to go. Just...- domepiece

Here's some pics of how the truck sets right now. I pulled my driveshaft tonight and it's getting shortened tomorrow. I put some new fenders on the truck also. The others were cut up behind the wheel lip. They are barley on there so they aren't lined up or anything. Still...- domepiece

Today I pulled the engine back out so I could cut the motor mount pedestals off the frame. Once they were cut off I ground it down and made some reinforcement plates for the frame where the new mounts will sit. I spent about an hour retapping the holes on the block that I'm going to use for...- domepiece

Well the guy with the getrag I was supposed to get kinda sold it out from under me. So I spent all day friday trying to find any transmission with no luck. Hell I was about to resort to an automatic and buy a whole truck to get all the stuff I needed. Then I came across a complete 5 speed...- domepiece
