    383 injectors

    It's nothing crazy, just aluminum heads and a mild cam. I guess I'll see what the tuner has to say

    383 injectors

    I am about to get my (99) 383 vortec tuned. I would like to put after market injectors in it. Hopefully around 30lb/hr. I was just wondering if anybody knew where to find injectors with the spider system. I want to replace both, but haven't been able to find both in the same kit. Thank you in...

    383 vortec running rough

    And what do you mean by “dizzy in spec”

    383 vortec running rough

    Cap and rotor are the ones I got on the truck when I bought it 6 months ago. The poly lock rocker nuts are why I have to use a taller valve cover. I don’t have a fuel pressure tester or a compression tester so I wont be able to find those out. And I haven’t changed the injectors, so whatever...

    383 vortec running rough

    So I checked out the cam retard and it is -16.1. I tried moving the distributor and it did not change at all, even after revving it up

    I do not. I will for sure check that out.

    383 vortec running rough

    Sorry if this has already been discussed, but I couldn’t find anything that pertained to my situation. So I have a 99 k2500 that I put a 383 vortec in. It is running incredibly badly. It shakes the whole truck at idle. I plugged a scanner into it and it is giving me “p0401 egr flow insufficient”...

    Tall valve covers and AC compressor

    Tall valve covers and AC compressor

    Yes I am. They are what came with the rockers

    Tall valve covers and AC compressor

    The rocker stud and nut is too tall, the valve covers fit, they just have a quarter inch gap at the bottom

    Tall valve covers and AC compressor

    I have a 1999 k2500. I am in the process of replacing the 5.7 with a 383 (vortec) with aftermarket heads and cam. I have been able to get most issues solved, but the one I can't is one of the last. I have taller valve studs/roller rockers, so the factor valve covers will not work. I have some...

    Interior lights wont turn off

    I actually found out there was no bulbs in the dome lights, and that sort of fixed the problem. Now my problem is they won't turn off with the doors if the key is off

    Interior lights wont turn off

    I have also checked other forum posts about this issue and none have been quite the same. I saw one about replacing the third brake light with a cheap ebay replacement(which I did) and having this issue. It was solved by cutting the red/yellow wires. So I tried it but again it did not work.

    Interior lights wont turn off

    I have recently been having a problem with my 1999 gmc sierra crew cab. I can not turn the door lights or courtesy lights off. I replaced the door jamb switches, and the head light switch to no avail. I took apart both rear door switches and there was only wire on both of them so I'm guessing...
