    Built tbi vs ls swap

    If i could go back in time i would ls swap with a whole transmission package and mesh it to my old transfer case. I did the 5.7 tbi upgrades on my 95 k1500 4l60e. It is still slow and won't pull my 3500 lb boat up a mountain very good. I didn't expect it to be fast but expected more results. I...

    New paint and boat

    Just bought a boat! Here it is behind my 95 K1500 that was painted black in the fall. Was red on black 2 tone before.

    88 350 TBI timing

    I'm running an LT1 roller cam with 10:1 cr in my 95 5.7tbi with 93 octane. With the bigger cam i had to set base timing 2 degrees advanced or the engine would die. No detonation so far.

    Air Conditioner service ports

    They came original in new hoses but since they started leaking i have changed them with no pag oil on seals. Got new valve cores coming now. Thanks for the tip

    Air Conditioner service ports

    I am on my 2nd set of AC service port valve cores and they still leak. High and low hoses are less than a year old. Anyone know of any tricks to seal them better? Torque values? Thanks.

    led tail light havoc

    I think it is this one. Works but seems to be fading in sunlight fast. I can see it becoming light pink soon.

    led tail light havoc

    Update: it was coincidental timing. My multifunction switch had bad wires. I replaced it and ignition switch harness. LED lights work fine and look good with my new raptor spray in bedliner.

    led tail light havoc

    Thanks. I did notice most of those circuits are labeled hot in run/start on the schematic. I did inspect the wiring and wiggled the harness but found nothing. Sounds like i may need a new ignition switch.

    led tail light havoc

    Slight difference in tail light circuits from 93 to 94/95. Only one extra bulb added but i don't see how it could toast an ecm. It may have been coincidental timing because i remember seeing my tachometer going nuts before i pulled it in garage to change tail lights.

    led tail light havoc

    Thanks for the tips. Oddly enogh the new led brake lights, running lights, and reverse lights worked. They just caused something to happen. Pcm is still not responding. All interior/exterior lights work. Dash cluster only illuminates seat belt and gear indicator lights. Engine will turn over but...
