    Got a new carb right before I did the first fire up. Its from Devane carburetors, its a weekend warrior 750 and its been great so far. I also noticed while I had it running it seemed the alternator was flexing some when id rev it, so I added a brace between the alternator and the power...

    96 on 35's lacks power.. need help

    If your towing that much with this truck and that concerned with its performance maybe it shouldn't be on 35's, and it's not gonna perform like the 6.0 did in your other truck unfortunately. Swap the 350 into since you have it. Get the swap and little bugs out of the way then next I would say...

    GMT400 Frame strength for 900hp street truck ??

    So if it's a 4wd and a driver what's up with the 900hp lol jk who doesn't want 900hp. If you have the means to complete a 900hp set up then I would think you could box the frame in where it isn't and add in other bracing to help strengthen it some, or pay to have it done. Also I have...

    Questions on 92 LS Swap or 5.3 vortec?

    First thing to do is get a little plan together on what you want your truck to look like and be able to do. Then get a budget plan and is this your daily driver or spare/project vehicle. Besides that lowering your truck can be done many different ways, static drop going from a 2/4 drop to a 5/7...

    zf-6 tranny

    ZF6 appears it would be tuff due to its size and the fact they weren't in a lot of trucks, think I've seen two and both behind dmax. The nv4500 would be a lot easier and more common trans, better option I think. There is a company that is making t56 trans for 4x4 trucks and that would be sweet...

    Suspension lift on 1998 sierra Z71

    A 6" suspension is good for up to 35's depending on rim width and offset and add a 3" body lift to that and you can get 37's. To help the trans out most people will regear, commonly recommend is 4.56 with 35 and 4.88 with 37 now that can change a little depending on how or where u drive the...

    Thanks, and very cool I'll keep a look out for the build thread. Yeah I really enjoy drive manual and since it was a factory 5 speed the 6 speed swap wasn't bad, but I wanted to keep it kinda old school and more of a mechanical feeling where you are really driving it. That's why it's stayed sbc...
