    Valve Seals!

    Valve Seals!

    more than what? if you lubricate "more", what will become of the additional oil? it will destroy the guide and allow more lubrication which destroys more. again, cast guides are the way of the dinosaur. a good thing you can do is contact AV&V. they are in canada and got their act together on all...

    Torque converter bolts

    may be best for you to trailer it to a shop. if you have engine ready to pull, except mount bolts, it should be really cheap and will (should) insure no damage to transmission or converter, or even engine and other.... figure an hour labor to have the engine sitting on the trailer. dont try to...

    Valve Seals!

    really? what is installed spring height/ bind height/ installed and over the nose pressures? where on the roller is the valve stem locating as you turn the cam? maybe this vortec head is immune to valve problems, if so, the aftermarket is selling tons of parts designed to correct the issues...

    Where's the oil coming from?

    reckon what would happen if we did use the old style gaskets? slower warmup? poor mpg? curious!

    Valve Seals!

    you would have cut the guide for the seals at the same time you cut the head for the valves and springs. there is really nothing extra to do as you were doing the setup for the other components anyway. im guessing the recipe you followed is one of those "it'll work" deals. valve geometry...

    Engine stalls when heat is on and You put in Reverse 1995 Silverado

    use a volt meter at the cigar lighter and watch for voltage drop when you shift to reverse. first with key on, engine off, then with engine running. also wacth for engine jumping as you put her in gear, testing for broken motor mount which could affect grounds.

    Valve Seals!

    yes, use them on both valves. looks like manley flow valve? call manufature and find out how lite you can go on springs. that is necessary before you start cutting anything.

    1999 GMC 2500 5.7 Knock from Hell....

    i would look closely for signs of silicone sealant. being as it was just in the shop and resealed. some folks take shortcuts for profit and use sealant on gaskets and that sealant turns loose and gets sucked into the pickup for the oil pump. letitsnow has great point too. i have seen the ol...

    Valve Seals!

    who's valves do you have? those orings arent used on the more modern valves, as they have mostly gone to the press fit seals. the older style seals work for the older type valves and guides because they wear quicker and have higher tolerances which would destroy the newer type seals. cast...

    Valve Seals!

    positive seals are best, they press on to the guide, which may need machining for fit. there are cutters available that are inexpensive and easy to use. but if you are having a machinist set up the heads for your needs, he will cut the guides while he is at it. i think this is what mr grimace...

    EBC Yellowstuff Brake Pads - Worth It?

    actually i was talking about technology from race cars being great for the street. as in trucks. trucks have higher weight to stop or slow. trucks haul loads, requiring better brakes to slow or stop, and to dissipate the heat quicker. trucks tow, requiring better brakes for slowing or stopping...

    EBC Yellowstuff Brake Pads - Worth It?

    drilled and slotted are drilled and slotted for a reason.......to dissipate heat. some people are just full of internet lies and bullshit. you want longevity? run solid rotors. you want cheap? run solid rotors you want to run hard course , or run downhill and throw the brakes at the bottom of...

    02 sensor

    biggest problem with the bosch is rednecks going to autozone and getting the cheapest one available, the one that requires splicing in (even includes the butt splices). i used bosch on my dyno for the wideband sniffer, and rarely had to replace. throwing it on the floor, contaminating, knocking...

    EBC Yellowstuff Brake Pads - Worth It?

    i do prime also. 13 bucks a month. the movies are worth that. almost always get stuff in 2-3 days free shipping. the freight would cost more than the membership, and you also get prime music. smart tv, roku, stick, record and burn, etc.

    Camber issues

    well, different strokes for different folks! thanks for clarifying. there were trucks like that back home in louisiana, but they were a tool for those having to get through the mud and gumbo. im thinking your purpose built truck may be for getting the chics at the mall?
