    96 2wd to 4wd conversion

    I have a 96 LT 7.4 Sub I did an SAS on, have fun. Totally do-able but it will be fun. You asked about the T-case, my recommendation is leave in the 2 wheel drive transmission and add a 208/241, your ecm and transmission will never know the difference.

    97 454 L29 Long Crank

    On this motor this condition is always injectors. Everytime. BTW if you buy the AC Delco injectors from Rock Auto they come with the new clips. And they are new 3 hole injectors.

    Cold Starts / Really Cold

    It could be coincidental but possibly just some extra time for fuel pressure, but the fuel is good. I just know what happened. No trouble light/code thrown either. This also works on some bike ecm's, if you give them a few seconds to run the circuit and adjust for input from the sensors they...

    Cold Starts / Really Cold

    It’s -30c at the moment and my truck just wouldn’t start tonight. I couldn’t figure it out, it would try but just couldn’t pull it off. Finally after multiple boosts and barely sputtering I thought, I need to give the old girl a minute to think. So next try I turned on the ignition and did...

    Ignition Circuit

    I was trying to sort out a wiring problem in the ignition circuit of my 96 Vortec L29-7.4 Lt. I had the ground off the front of the block, under the alternator, when I accidentally had the ground touch the positive side of the battery. I didn't get spark, instead it actually energized the...

    PSC XD STEERING GEAR BOX

    I installed the PSC HD box in my 96 suburban with the 7.4. The truck has a solid axle swap with the kingpin 60 so I ordered up the full PSC system because I had previously modified the stock box by porting it for hydro-assist and it was crapping out. The PSC HD box is substantially larger than...

    L29 and Lucas Hot Rod and Classic Car Motor Oil

    Looking preferably for scientific answers and opinions as to whether there would there be any benefit to longevity in Vortec L29/454 motors using oil with additives such as Lucas Hot Rod and Classic Car Motor Oil, especially the bottom end and top end, cam etcetera. I’m currently running...

    Transmission swap help/instructions

    Listen to Schurkey before it's to late. With these trucks it's best to just buy what you want up front, unless you like perpetual frustration.

    Reluctor wheel help

    Old thread I know, but if your replacing the Crank Position Sensor make sure it's american made or AC Delco or Delphi, the chinese knock-offs can cause weird things to happen, even when they have correct resistance and you don't get a DTC. Intermittent problems that don't throw codes are the...

    Vortec 454 (7.4L) Fuel Injector Clips

    The replacement AC Delco injectors I got from Rock Auto all came with brand new clips, I used em but really mine were fine.
