    L31 Extreme Budget Build

    It's a shame they dummyproofed it to the point an experienced tuner has to struggle to this extent.

    Vortec intake manifold pitting

    I dunno, I'd heard it recommended in the past and tried it. Haven't sprung any leaks yet that I'm aware of. That's about all I can offer.

    What to look at, for fixing lopey idle and running rich?

    What makes you say it's running rich? Lean exhaust stinks to high heaven and a lean AFR will cause a lope. On the other hand, misfires will make it idle like crap and dump unburned fuel into the exhaust and you don't need a rich or lean condition for that. We need more info here.

    6.5 to 454 vortec swap

    Yes, but are the controls or the valve body any different? That's all that matters in this application.

    6.5 to 454 vortec swap

    Newp, 1500 and 2500 could have it. Only need to change input shaft and bearing to make the swap.

    Vortec intake manifold pitting

    I too was scolded by a machinist for using the roloc discs on my block and heads. He said for a garage job use 320 grit on a block. My block's deck took on a whole different look after I followed my already roloc'd surface with 320 on a block. Much better looking. I'd do the same for this...

    6.5 to 454 vortec swap

    I don't think the 4L80 underwent changes the way the 60 did, so my guy seems to think the 94 stuff is the way to go here. Bueller?

    4l60e TQ and HP Question

    Ahh, so it's not 1 piece. It's 1 piece plus shims to dial it in.

    4l60e TQ and HP Question

    Yeah I don't like the idea of them myself, as someone who's never had to set up a rear end before. But I do see gear setup in my future at some point. How do you measure for the solid spacer? I'm having a hard time visualizing it as that all lives in the front of the pig.

    OBS to NBS MC upgrade questions

    Any of these trucks, properly maintained with hydroboost, should have no trouble putting you through the windshield at 80. In the event it won't, as is the case with my plow truck, basic maintenance is in order. The NBS master cylinder only kinda sorta masks the never-adjusted-correctly POS 10"...

    6.5 to 454 vortec swap

    I think if I were in your shoes I'd leave the interior harness alone. May open a can of worms with the gauge clusters being different. Should be a breeze to get the existing one functional the same way I did.

    6.5 to 454 vortec swap

    I swapped a 454 Vortec in place of a 6.5. It was a 98 truck, but it seemed like the 6.5 never changed like the gassers did. It was plug and play, thing fired right up, only wiring required was a jumper harness so the dash would work correctly as all that is fed from what comes through the...
