    Aluminum Vortec Heads?

    Thanks for the link. I have read through that a few times and narrowed it down to the few questions I have above. I realize I will need more than just a set of heads. Still trying to work out a full parts list before I start spending money. Do you know anything about the heads I posted above...

    Coil Help

    I think I might have an answer. I found a diagram from a msd box that shows splicing both pink wires together and running to the red coming from the box. ANd splicing both whites together and tying them into the white coming from the box. Coming out the box, orange is power (pink wires) and the...

    Coil Help

    Hey guys I have a Crane Cams HI-6 box and LK-92 coil sitting in the garage. The only thing keeping me from installing it on the truck is the coil plug adapter harness. It appears that the harness is out of production. I know where it splices into the HI-6 box. Can anyone tell me which wires I...

    Shift up light

    I managed to change my moonies out for some needle style gauges with a tach and everything works flawlessly (I was doubtful that it would). My truck was originally a 4.3 w/ a 5 speed but now its a 350 w/ a 5 speed. I got the speedo dialed in to the tire and rear end size (verified w/ gps) and...

    Tahoe Limited seat wiring

    Are you positive about the element being embedded? I read quite a bit on some tahoe forums and most of those guys have actually managed to change the heating pad without even removing the seat wrap, let alone the cushion. I found a really good write up on one of them that had tons of pics. I...

    Yep. Mine came with a new one.

    Sloppy shifter - manual

    You'll love it when you finally get it. Yes I got the short throw. I considered changing the stick but it's hard to know which one to get unless you can actually try it first. Kinda like ordering shoes w/o trying them on. But I'm pretty much used to it now and barely notice it anymore.

    Brake upgrade failure. Desperate for help!

    New spindles are on their way. Mike at DJM was great to deal with and very helpful. Thanks Mike! And thanks to all of you guys for you help.

    Brake upgrade failure. Desperate for help!

    Thank you. I assume I already have the shorter springs because the truck had a 4/6 drop when I got it. I will call DJM tomorrow. Thanks a lot for all of the help guys. I really appreciate it.

    Brake upgrade failure. Desperate for help!

    Cool. Thanks guys. So is it the spring that gives me the extra 2" of drop? Is it shorter as well? I assume so. Also, since I now have the hd rotors, bearings, calipers, and master cylinder, is the hd drop spindle the final piece to the puzzel? Or will there be some other unforseen obstacle pop...

    Brake upgrade failure. Desperate for help!

    So who would you recommend for 4" drop spindles? Edit - That was probably a stupid question. Do the spindles themselves provide the entire 4" drop or is a 2" drop spindle and shorter spring? I'm learning about this truck the hard way. I aquired it the way that it is so I'm not sure what...

    Brake upgrade failure. Desperate for help!

    In hindsight that makes sense but I thought I could pull off an upgrade in the process. I didnt realize there was this much incompatability in the parts.

    Brake upgrade failure. Desperate for help!

    I had to get a little creative on the nut. I put the castle head inboard and got the cotter pin in that way. It still has a full nut worth of threads so I think it's ok on that part. I know these spindles aren't designed for these rotors but as far as I can tell the bearings are riding in the...

    Brake upgrade failure. Desperate for help!

    I need some help guys. I started replacing ball joints yesterday which lead to new rotors and wheel bearing since I was there. I learned the hard way that my truck came with the smaller 1" rotors after buying the 1.25". So since I had bigger rotors and new pads going on I got the correct...

    Sloppy shifter - manual

    In case anyone is interested I swapped in one of the core shifters and I'd say it was a pretty nice upgrade. It's a little short, took some getting used too, but very nice. Its a great piece and worth the money.

    What shocks for performance driving?

    If anyone checks this in the future and wants a real nice shock, I ended up going with a set of monroe reflexes (not the sensa trac crap) and they have been awesome so far. I have a couple thousand miles on them and no complaints.

    Tahoe Limited seat wiring

    Thanks for the reply. I actually got the drivers seat to work once I installed it. I think I wasnt getting a good ground on the chassis of the seat when it was in the floor of my garage. The passenger side still wont fire though. From all of the other reading I have done it sounds like it must...
