    Starter Troubles

    Thought my truck was good enough to count on till next week, drove it around a bit earlier, continued to start up with out issues. Sat for a few hours, came out, kept exhibiting the same symptoms plus some interesting erratic behavior from the gauges when the key was cycled. Wiggled the keys...

    Starter Troubles

    Got the truck fired up this morning. Gave the battery a boost first thing, still nothing. Came back, made sure to give the keys a good jiggle in the ignition, fired right up no hesitation. Thinking ignition starter switch but finding very little about how to replace it. May also be the...

    Starter Troubles

    No, may be worth trying. You're right, and I know there's some corrosion in the battery end of my positive cable. I am planning to do the big 3 in the near future. I'd just be surprised if that's come to be the main culprit. They're the correct GM OE bolts. When I say the fit is weird I mean...

    Starter Troubles

    Truck is a 92 K1500 with a 96+ Vortec crate 5.7 adapted for TBI. Rock solid reliable truck, have pretty much daily driven it for nearly 8 years. A lot of this post will be background info. Main issue at the end. A while back the truck started to have issues starting. Was one of those deals...

    Mods for a Vortec with pre-96 TBI

    Runs wonderfully. I got the truck like this and never drove it with the stock engine so I can't compare it to that, but yeah it runs great how it is. I'm just power hungry, and truthfully may not end up using this truck as my go-fast truck, but would like to know my options. Good information...

    Mods for a Vortec with pre-96 TBI

    I actually looked into this in the past. Definitely seems like a cheap route to take compared to stand alone EFI.

    Mods for a Vortec with pre-96 TBI

    I like this idea and something of that nature completely skipped my mind. Definitely some uncharted waters for me but it's pretty simple and like you said, self-learning. Thanks.

    Mods for a Vortec with pre-96 TBI

    Hey all, I'm interested in building my truck to be a bit quicker than it is. It's a 92 K1500 lifted 4" on 33s. Still want it to have the right power band and all for towing. Most importantly, it's got a 96+ Vortec 350 crate motor, but it still uses the pre-96 TBI setup, made possible by a...

    Installing headers 1994 K1500

    Hey bud, you got a link for the headers you ordered? And why do you say you'd go long tube if you had to do it again? Thanks.

    Help with a 1st gen S10?

    I know S10s aren't GMT400s but I like the folks on this forum and have found yall to be pretty helpful so let me know if I can't be talking about S10s around here. Anyways, I'm interested in buying a 1st gen S10 and doing a 2 inch front drop and 3 inch rear drop on it to go with my lifted GMT400...

    92 Cluster Without a Tach

    I'm just posting this because I'm really curious and have always found this an oddity in my truck. I have a 92 K1500 Silverado, and the gauge cluster has a speedo , oil pressure, temp, battery, and fuel gauge but no tach. Anyone else have this or know why they did it or if it's rare or anything...

    Less offset without a lift

    I mostly just wanna know if it'll put any significant wear on suspension components or wheel components if I space out my wheels without having the suspension to back it up so to say, seems like it could put some things at weird angles?

    Less offset without a lift

    I have a 92 K1500 that I want to slowly begin badassing up just a little bit. Right now I plan on doing a slight t-bar crank just to level, and then throwing on new wheels and tires. The wheels I plan on getting are a 16x8 with a 0mm offset, and the stock wheels are a 16x6.5 with a 50mm offset...

    Where to buy grilles/cheapest grille

    I want a black grille for my 92 Chevy K1500 but the cheapest I can find is $68 on ebay which seems outrageous but maybe it's not... Can get the same one from summit for $45 but they charge $55 for shipping and I don't need anything else from there. So are there any other vendors I should look at...
