    I Need More Fuel

    I have a Gen 4 / 5.3 swapped into my 94 OBS. The DOD, VATS and downstream O2 sensors have been deleted from the E38 ECM. I paid a local guy who charges $500 for dyno tuning 200 for the bench service to get me up and running... He'll charge the balance of $300 when I bring the truck back for a...

    Oil Cooler Line Connections at the Radiator

    I've got a new OEM radiator for my 94 C1500 / 5.3 LY5 swap and want to use 6AN fittings to connect the engine oil lines to the radiator but I can't figure out what thread size the radiator inlets are. Does any one know the radiator Engine Oil Cooler thread dimensions for 1994 GMT-400?

    Which is Better?

    I'm currently planing out the exhaust system in a 94 SCSB with an 07-08 5.3 / LY5. I've narrowed my options as follows: A long tube set up with a 3" Y pipe and a single muffler. My local jurisdiction does not have smog check restrictions so I'm thinking I'd go with out cc and a single 02...

    Long Tube Header & Y Pipes that work in OBS Trucks with LS Motors

    I'm in the process of a 94 SCSB, 2 WD frame off restoration. The sheet metal is at the shop for paint.

I want to customize an alternative to the OEM handle to discourage such behavior. I know about shaving the door and using a door popper, but...

    I'm in need of some Education

    I don't know @#$% about engine performance... so I can't understand why someone would put 305 TBI heads an a 5.7 Vortec (10243880) block? The motor (none of which is original to the truck) is out of a 94 SCSB Silverado, 8th digit VIN = K. I picked it up for an LS swap / frame-off restoration...

    Numbers on my vortec block ???

    I've noticed a series of small computer etched numbers on the driver's side of my block, between the #3 & 5 cylinders close to the cylinder head. The number is 161 1239. There's also a larger 880 cast number on the same side below the #5 cylinder. I can't see the other locations where the...

    About to buy this Craigslist truck: https://limaohio.craigslist.org/cto/d/spencerville-1994-c1500/6813442161.html I talked to the guy who says the truck has a 98 Vortec short block with 94 TBI heads, TBI intake and original wiring harness and ECM. This was suppose to save on the cost of a...
