    flush or pull?

    That is what my brain is telling me but my shoulders are trying to talk their way out of it. Just not sure what would have caused the check ball to end up in the pan....if I remember right they are all captured in the trasmission once it is put together. I drove the thing 15 miles the morning it...

    flush or pull?

    Ok...sad but true ...my freshly rebuilt transmission in my 94 z71 was just sodomized by the cooler in the radiator! My choices are to try and flush it and see how long it may last or pull it out and take it back to the shop for a refresh on all the soft parts and a new converter for a couple...

    air to nowhere

    Not sure where to post this one but figured better start here. Got a 1994 exsb z71with a ventilation issue. The blower comes on but no matter the setting no air comes out anywhere. I can manually open the recirculation door and feel little wisps of air around some of the seems but still nothing...

    Help me get this cam moving

    What do you have? Any moods as far as heads? For what its worth the last one I used for a build was a comp cam xfi268. I had l98 heads that were set up for that though.

    dead suburban

    Just to close this thread out...went and checked a few things and wiggled all the fuses. The a battery in and it had lights and a key chime....but the key they left didn't work to turn the truck on. Guessing it was complete lack of wanting to do anything to the truck was their problem so I'm...

    dead suburban

    Went and looked at it real quick andno power wire to fire wall but does have a terminal box for the main positive cable that is mounted to the engine...it may be corroded in there. Thanks for the tip on the fuses....I may go back and check those today. Didn't have tools or my meter with me...

    dead suburban

    Ok....I know it's not gmt400 but a good find is what it is. Got a line on a 03 suburban that is completely dead in the water. Running fine one day then nothing the next day. Not even dash lights. Would the vats cause this or would it be a complete ecm death?

    south texas recommendations

    You bet...I think it's important to let a shop know when a customer is happy with the service they received. I feel like that is what keeps a good shop motivated to maintain their ethics and good practices. I try and do the same thing with anything I repair. Just finished redoing a set of heads...

    south texas recommendations

    Just got off work and called the shop and it sounds like a pretty good deal. All new guts and replacements on the week parts for $1200. Sounds to me like the next best thing would be a new one from gm. Considering all the different prices I have gotten for mail order stuff that someone always...

    south texas recommendations

    Thanks Richard. I have been looking for someone that I can feel comfortable with putting parts in that I ask for. I was going to take a stab at it myself but the cost of the tools plus the parts would have made the whole project a looser on the financial war front. I plan to look up the shop...

    south texas recommendations

    Hey folks...I am looking for some recommendations for a honest transmission builder for a 4l60 somewhere in south texas. I live close to Victoria so a run to Houston would not be a problem. This is for a 1994 z71 that would see mild use most of the time and possibly some towing a couple times a...

    tuning suggestions ?

    Never done one before but I am not opposed to it. Might take a little time because of the poor internet connection I have. Just want to do it the best way possible and need a little advice on certain things like what to change and pfi mode. What would you recomend?
