    Truck shakes bad over 60mph?

    Are your motor/Transmisson mounts in good shape? How's the catalytic converter?

    Thoughts

    I am considering swapping my 4L60E in my 94 Z coded 4.3 Work Truck to a standard shift. I know that there was a 4 speed plus overdrive and a five speed. Which would be better for pulling? When I worked for GM was in parts, not service.

    Whats an inexpensive exhaust kit?

    You just have to get the clamps, short bends and weld the tips

    Whats an inexpensive exhaust kit?

    Go to a local parts store. You can get the 3 inch pipes, two afterburner mufflers and tips for under 200

    The real differences in 700r4/4l60/4l60e transmissions by year

    Does anyone know the exact number of relays, fuses, sensors on a 4l60e?

    3rd generation 94 c1500 build

    When I worked in parts at a Chevy dealership, oe went for 150-200 but that was twenty years ago. You might check places like summit, godfather and pepboys. Just do your own install, it's not that hard and those places charge out the tailpipes

    Am I crazy for attempting this??

    Not necessarily, depending on the on board cpu and the other mods/weight on your truck. Best bet would be drop tire size and up the rearend

    answer to any 4l60e trouble

    Also been thinking about trying to open a small shop or something to help the pickup drivers where I am now. We have one custom truck shop, but no one specializes in maintaining the older trucks here

    answer to any 4l60e trouble

    More hoping to not go that in depth right now. Doing as much of the work myself due to not being able to work healthwise. One reason I am fixing him is to try to get where I can at least do some lawn/maintenance work for folks who know about my condition

    answer to any 4l60e trouble

    Was not aware of the longevity and safety issues till you mentioned and I looked them up. Had no idea, most of the old school pickup drivers in my hometown use them. Rethinking that idea now.

    IAC Wiring

    Good question would be why it looks like the replacement wires look like radio or interior wiring....

    Best Cam for Vortex 350 with TBI

    Wolverine 180/190 is what I used on the 350 I dropped in my s10. Granted I raced it more than anything, but it worked decently as a daily driver and some of the off roading

    MAP Sensor issues

    Check the PCM itself, the connections and then you idle air control valve. If still doing it start checking all of the under hood sensors, connections and your pcv valve. The 350 in the mid nineties can be temperamental, but usually more in the high mileage.

    answer to any 4l60e trouble

    I love my beast! Soon as he is running pics to follow. It may be a 4.3, but I rebuilt the top end and had a new set of 3.73 gears with spool in the rear to have better traction, stabilizers to keep shimmy down and had not truly pulled any loads. My first tranny was cracked when I purchased...
