    Full Hooker exhaust anyone?

    Bringing this back up because I wanted to install the system this weekend. I'm having a problem getting the drivers side pipes lined up. Anyone here installed this or a similar kit?

    Strange Voltage Drop/Fluctuation

    the big 3 will likely fix this, as well as make everything else happy

    Diesel cooling fan or a gasser swap?

    My 97 lost some valves, so I'll be swapping in a 383 within the next year or so. Any reason why I cant use my 9 blade fan on the 383? Seems to me it should suck much more air than a normal 5 or 6 blade fan. Thoughts?

    Poly bushings

    Poly bushings are the way to go for sure. Also, while you are doing the sway bar link kits, buy a Grade 8 bolt that is 1/2" shorter. It's a pinch harder to install, but it will tighten up the sway bar nicely. I've done this to all my vehicles, my old cavy I shortened them a full inch and it...

    Door latch lube

    i hit all my moving parts once a year anyway, so if the lithium wears off, not a big deal for me. All part of the spring time 'all over tune-up'

    Crazy acting 98 Z71

    first thing I'd figure is the VSS. Thats the common component of the trans, speedo and abs

    Oil pump leave alone or replace

    Yeah, standard volume, high pressure would be fine, or just the standard pump. Go with Melling, or Summit brand (since melling makes them). Might as well spend the extra $5 and get the ARP stud kit for it too.

    No AC. Where to start?

    Try jumping the switch on the accumulator and see if the compressor runs.

    1994 5.7 Stalled out???

    Fuel pump or ignition module. Either can cause intermittant stalling.

    Gauge reads 260 help!

    have you tried replacing the temp sensor for the gauge? May have been damaged during the overheat.

    TBI mod questions

    if you're only getting 9 PSI, it wouldnt hurt to bump up the pressure to 13 or so, if your fuel pump has that much left in it. I used 3 5mm stainless washers in the bump of the regulator. Not quite as much as a bump as a quarter mod, but mine is solid at 12.5 PSI. Not sure what it was before...
