    Engines 101

    You might be able to scratch your performance itch by just getting a tune. I used Black Bear for my tune and they were great. Someone previously mentioned the 0411 swap with which you can tune yourself. You have to determine if you have the skills for it. You asked about headers - shorties...

    LED headlights vs DRL

    No wiring diagram came with the lights - serves me right in buying them from eBay, I guess. Yes, my truck came with DRLs from factory. They were the actual headlights though. I don't have service manuals but will search the forum. Thank you!

    LED headlights vs DRL

    I think this is a new thread. I have a 1996 WT with single headlights and installed LED headlights that include DRLs. I initially didn’t wire them in but decided to try them. There were no instructions in my kit. Anyway, the DRLs had two leads - red and green. Power to the red caused a...

    I just went to LED on my 1996 and kept my old one. Do you want it?

    No tail lights

    I have the hyperflash. Is it better to use the load module or LED flasher? If it’s the load module, do you need one at each light?

    You guys nailed it! The one wire was the ground for back there. Thank you all!

    Fuses are good. I’m heading out to hook up the ground wire. Thanks!

    I probably tucked that one away thinking it was for the (now removed) trailer hitch. Thank you!

    No tail lights

    The one at the gas tank is. Should there be another one from the bed to the frame? Neither for the LEDs. I figured I’d get them if I got the hyper flash.

    No tail lights

    I’m putting my 1996 C1500 back together after spending the last couple years rebuilding it. I can’t get the tail lights nor flashers to work. The headlights and front running lights work fine but no flash. I’ve swapped in a carbed 454/TH400. Here’s what I’ve done. Bed came off and...

    Master cylinder thread specs for AN fittings

    Hello All, On my 1996 C1500 WT, I'm trying to run AN lines from the master cylinder outfeed ports to the proportioning valve and need to know the thread specs on the 2 ports. If anyone has a vendor or part numbers for the AN adapter fittings, it would be greatly appreciated. Thank you. Bill

    5.7 front engine leak

    I had a very small nick in the o-ring seal on the front timing cover. Chased it forever before we finally found it.

    A/c compressor Replacement options

    Will this setup work with an older model 454 (carb/dizzy) swapped into my 1996 C1500? It previously had a 5.7L vortec, if that helps.

    Master cylinder and ABS Delete

    I'll let you know how it works out for me. After reading all of this, I've decided to hold off on the MC swap until I have some experience with the new setup. Thanks man.
