    7.4L Vortec fuel pressure regulator relocation 1997 3500

    After owning this truck for 7 years and replacing 4 FPR's I really got tired of working on it. The last AC Delco only lasted a few weeks. So I came up with a solution I've never seen anyone else try. Corvette Filter/regulator mounted in the factory fuel filter location. 58psig continuous. Yes I...

    1997 3500 4l80e problems

    Truck has always been perfect until a week ago. Took off for town and the trans was in second gear and then started shifting between second and first, rapidly. I slowed down some and then it just went to second and stayed, limp mode I assume. no check engine light, no codes with my scanner...

    Headers for 454

    The frame in these trucks just won't allow a square body header to get close to fitting. I found these today Patriot Exhaust H8058 Headers, 92-95 Chevy Truck, Raw, 1-3/4 Inch - $294 from Speedway motors.

    BIG BLOCK HEADERS FOR '94 4x4??

    Not a lot of choices for big block headers, and only one I know of 2" primary's, Hookers @ $705.00. I'm building a 96 with 496 that should make 675hp so the 2" is a must.

    Speedometer correction - 98 Vortec truck

    With a tire change the speedometer in my truck was 6 to 7 mph off at higher highway speeds. I researched until I was tired of the many ways to bring the accuracy back. I needed a low cost method. I wasn't willing to pay for a tune I don't need or a tuner I have no other use for. I know many...

    98 Vortec - timing retard issue

    Well, I don't think so. It does happen below 2400, just infrequently.

    98 Vortec - timing retard issue

    Oh yea, its repeatable. With the cooler weather now it does it as the compressor runs for the defrost. This has nothing to do with the brand new distributor. I replace the old one in an effort to find the cause. I'ts definelty the knock sensor picking something up when the compressor kicks in...

    98 Vortec - timing retard issue

    traced it down. It's the a/c compressor kicking in & out... But I'm not sure if I have a problem with the a/c or if all vortec trucks do this. Anyone else have live data scanner that would be willing to test their own truck??

    Electric fan conversion

    Yep, you are simply pulling more juice than the electrical system can provide in that instant the fans come on. Once the alternator kicks up then the system goes back to normal.

    NO LOW END POWER, TERRIBLE ACCELERATION... HELP???

    cam to crankshaft correlation has no effect on driveablility or power. Its only to prevent crossfire. Engine timing is controlled strictly by the crankshaft position sensor and the PCM. Mine suffered from low end power loss and bad mileage. Spider injector upgrade, new MAF sensor, and a tps...
