I'm Awesome
Thanks! It is the truck in my avatar, 97 K1500 I inherited from my grandpa who bought it new in 97. Got it a year and a half ago with 52k on it, bone stock. It spent most of its life in his garage as he had multiple vehicles. Now that it’s my DD, issues like this start to pop up (already replaced a few seals, fuel pump, coolant hoses, water pump, full ign tune-up, etc.) Luckily I am mechanically inclined and feel confident I can tackle the job. The truck runs beautifully otherwise.

Nice!
The fuel lines and distributer removal and reinstallation is the hardest part. I did my '99 Silverado 4.3 last winter, and wasn't too bad. The 4.3 doesn't have adjustable timing, so it's a bit easier.
However, on the V8s I believe you need a scanner to adjust the distributer. Some 1,000RPM procedure. Not sure if you can mark the position and reinstall in the same orientation. I'm sure someone here knows if this is possible.
Advance Auto shows Fel-pro model no MS 98000 T for my '00 k3500 5.7 engine. Should be the same as yours.
