    My 454 SS build

    I went with Flex-A-Lite Monster Universal-Fit Electric Fans 294, Flex-A-Lite Electric Fan Mounting Brackets 28000 and put a 454 radiator in it. I did use the option to use the on/off/auto switching. You can get this from summit racing.

    My 454 SS build

    Plus the Gearvendors will work behind the 4L80E. I have one behind my NV4500 MW3 and 14 bolt 9.5 3.73. I get 19 mpg on the freeway @75mph with a stock tbi 350. Overall this is a cool build. But, I cried a little seeing the covenant 454SS body and interior Modded. I can see swapping to 4l80e...

    88GMCtruck's 98 Silverado Towpig Build: "Black Fox"

    But I just had it rebuilt but with Cryo parts. so I wound up paying $1500 to bullet proof it. It is now rated from 475 to now 613 ft-lb of torque.

    NV3500 breaking point?

    When I swapped my NV3500 for the NV4500, I added a gearvendors to it. I learned to float the gears with the GV.

    88GMCtruck's 98 Silverado Towpig Build: "Black Fox"

    It would be easier just to find a Chrysler NV4500. Just saying.

    NV3500 breaking point?

    With my experience with these transmissions, I have had two die on me with a bone stock engine. The first one while heading on leave to my parents. I was on I10 south of El Paso, TX. Cruse on 75mph, all of a sudden RPMs went up. I had 4th but that was it. I flipped back at the boarder patrol...

    88GMCtruck's 98 Silverado Towpig Build: "Black Fox"

    Is this a Dodge NV4500 or GM NV4500? They are slightly different. The dodge one is a little more beefier than the GM in the input shaft do to it being slightly larger. The splines are different in the output of the main shaft. Dodge NV4500 has issues with 5th sliding off the counter shaft while...

    92-94 Gauge Cluster Swap

    Honestly, never seen one like that. I did a bit of research and found one Kodiak that had one similar. Its a GM for sure. I will expand to other brands of GMs. There are some overseas cars and trucks we don't see here, like Holden in Australia. But that don't mean it was a one year cluster. I...
