    Dyno Fund

    In my thread, "Free or Cheap mods", there was a discussion started about everyone pooling together to fund some dyno runs and actually test some theories. I figured I might be best equipped since I have both big and small block trucks, and I live less than five minutes from a dyno. Chime in if...

    Found my red Tahoe!

    VorTecxas '97 Tahoe Build So the Yukon is sold and I found me a matching SUV for Red. A '97 Tahoe LT with 109,000 on the clock for a cool $1000. The pictures do no justice for the interior, it is amazing. As a bonus, it came with the console cupholder and ALL of the radio lighting works! This...

    Yukon/Tahoe fuel pump access

    So I really didn't want to drop the fuel tank on my Yukon or on the Tahoe that's stuck in my apt parking lot, so after looking around the truck and carefully considering my options, I decided to cut a hole in the floor. Only took 45 minutes to cut the hole, replace the pump, and seal the hole...

    '99 Yukon Factory Entertainment help

    Bought a Yukon with factory entertainment, but it's missing EVERYTHING. All it has is the screen. The wiring still goes to under the passenger front and rear seats. What do I need to make this operable? Can I pick up an aftermarket DVD player that will work with it? Do I need headphones or does...

    VorTecxas '99 Yukon Build

    Picked up a Yuke a couple weeks ago with blown head gaskets for a grand, $300 later she's up and running. All that's been done so far is replace heads, new headers (plugged EGR port), cat delete, dumped muffler (only cause I didn't have enough cash to finish it...), removed running boards, wheel...

    The numbers proven thread

    Some of you may have seen my little rant on not having evidence to back up your claims on performance mods. So, I have created this thread for that purpose. Please no "I felts" or "I thinks", NUMBERS PROVEN ONLY. Put any numbers proven gains or losses here. Preferably with a screenshot of your...

    Just a quick rant...

    All right. I've got to get something out. When it comes to performance mods, unless you have personally used or have done the mod you are commending or condoning, PLEASE DO NOT PUT YOUR OPINION ON IT. Too many times - and it's not just here, it's every forum I've ever been on - people just...

    Will I ever stop?.....Nah, probably not

    I couldn't resist. Acquired my third truck in 6 days. First the very clean Yukon for $1000, the free (almost complete) parts truck yesterday, and now a '97 Tahoe LT. I'll get pics up tomorrow, too dark to take them now. Long story short, I was on the way home from dropping off the parts truck...

    FREEEBIIIEEE

    For those who don't know, I got rear ended in Red a couple weeks ago, it bent the frame at the cab. While looking around for a truck being parted out to get the frame from, found this gem. Guy took out engine and trans, and then sold the interior. City started riding his @$$ to get it out of his...

    New addition!

    1999 Yukon SLE 2WD. 194K. Clean and straight. I bought it with the intention to fix and flip, but I like it too much. Factory rear entertainment system. Has a flip out screen up front, and he threw in the factory wheels/tires (going on tomorrow to sell these ugly 20s), an extra brand new head...

    Tuning Software

    For those who don't know, I got rear ended in Red two weeks ago, and am now looking for a Yukon/Tahoe/Suburban to drive while I fix her up. For those of you who do your own tuning, what is the best (and easiest to use) software? I already had Black Bear tune the 454, but when I get the next...

    Police Cluster

    Got my PPV cluster in with custom needles a couple weeks ago. I'll get a night pic with the super white LEDs and put it in later. Sorry about the poor cell phone pic. I'll retake one with my camera, but I had to share how this looks. Ignore the fuel and temp gauges, my '96 fuel pump and sender...

    So this happened....

    Got rear ended last Saturday. I was stopped and she was doing about 50. I was assisting dispatch on locating her (she was VERY drunk and all over the place), she got behind me and got me at a stop sign. Tried to run and I pinned her in a parking lot (yeah, like you're going to outrun ME...

    Walked (slowly) on an L-98 '72 Vette

    Walked (slowly) on an L-48 '72 Vette Pretty proud of myself, had to share it somewhere. Went on a cruise with my dad the other day, I took my Sierra (one in the sig), and he took his '72 L-48/Auto Corvette. Beautifully restored but stock 'Vette save for electric fans, shift kit, and...

    Where does your exhaust exit?

    I don't know if there's already a thread on this, but where does everyone have their exhaust exiting? I ran duals out to my fenders with 2.5" 70s Trans Am splitter tips (I'm a Pontiac guy first, have owned 15 second gens, currently down to one :frown:), I like the hidden look...I need to get a...

    TPI

    Playing around with an idea. If I manipulated the outer 8 bolt holes a little, a TPI intake will bolt to Vortec heads right? I am aware they have a TPI lower for the Vortec heads, but I'm kicking around some low-buck ideas
