    Difference between 94-98 Chevy and GMC Corner lights?

    Oh right on that second link is the ones I was looking for. I guess doing the general search with “buy now” slimmed the listings down to the ones I found vs bidding. Yep! Fell in love with the look for a hot minute. Im taking the bow tie out and fitting a bel air emblem. yeah theyre nice. if I...

    Difference between 94-98 Chevy and GMC Corner lights?

    Hate to dig this up again. 2 questions. Are the headlights and signals the same for the gmc trucks vs chevy? I really like my projectors as they dont have the crappy halos. Searched forever for these. Also anyone got a link for all clear corners for the gmc grille? I dont like amber or the thin...

    Part number help!

    Haha too late. I ended up getting #4 in #2 i reassembled everything to get it to move into my garage boy was she not happy. The retainer clip broke so when I pushed it in to what I thought clipped in it went all the way in. My own ignorance. I guess its time to pull the head to get it out. Got...

    Part number help!

    Was in the process of replacing my fuel pressure regulator and I snapped the small plastic line that runs from firewall on the passenger side to what I believe is another sensor of some sort over by the TPS. I think is vacuum related Im not entirely sure. I just know its old and as I was trying...

    Fan Clutch help

    Haha yeah Im from Knoxville as well. Belt is on the pulley and everything seems fine. But nah I never did send the oe in for the core. The oe failed as it would legit spin freely and temps were fluctuating. Tried bleeding the system thinking I had an air pocket after the inlet hose retainer clip...

    Fan Clutch help

    Probably obvious answer for a “dumb” question. Got a fan clutch that bit the dust. Ordered a replacement and sadly was sent the wrong one so Im down without a fan clutch for a few days. Question is, can I still run around without it as I wait for the new one to come in. Current conditions...

    “Lag”?

    Alright so I replaced my EGR valve a few days ago and the same code popped back up. So im wondering if this narrows down to a fuel issue maybe? like perhaps my fuel to air ratio is off due to potential bad FPR or clogged filter? i also have a short circuit for both o2 so perhaps maybe im running...

    “Lag”?

    Now with a leaking injector wouldnt I be able to smell fuel? Because I dont smell any at all.

    “Lag”?

    Ill get the readings of it when driving here in a bit. Pressure with the key off dropped significantly. Went down 46psi.

    “Lag”?

    So Im running into fluctuating pressures at idle. Range between 51-55psi. Whats the standard for these trucks? I know the 5.3 gmt800s are at 60psi at idle. Im guessing the 5.7s are about the same?

    “Lag”?

    Alright. Replaced the wires and the cap and rotor. Same issue occurs. Decided to give it a few revs. Pedal to the floor it bogs at 2800rpm and backfires a little. Half throttle itll rev up to 5000rpm. No CEL. No misfire at idle. No current codes. Going to tackle the fuel filter next. Im...

    “Lag”?

    Sure know how to break down a paragraph. That “launch control” reference is just what best describes the way it sounds and acts. I come from the rally enthusiast community. Well, motorsport world. Instead of launching a car at start full rev and cause spinning during initial acceleration from a...

    “Lag”?

    Alright folks! Sorry for being stupid late with an update. So, So far I have replaced my EGR valve and cleared the code and seen a relatively small difference in throttle response. This lasted a few days and then it just wants to bog out on me again under load. Just replaced the plugs tonight...

    4 corner mod

    Yeah anyone with LEDs in a reflector housing is an absolute ass. though I cant say much. my signals are led with reflector housings. i wish they made those premade ones with white led only cause i hate amber lighting. might just buy a set and rebuild the arrays and make them white but im also...

    gmt800 escalade racks?

    Curious to know if the gmt800 escalade roof rack bars will fit on a gmt400. Or are the gmt800 trucks too curved? Really wanted to snag them vs the gmt400 denali/escalade ones. Ive got a tahoe for reference.

    4 corner mod

    Well my headlights are projectors. Not the cheap ones with the halos. I searched high and low for ones without them. I hardly use my high beams (want to do the high beam mod eventually too) and the only actual reflector housing is the signals. Which, they emit a ton of light but theyre not...

    4 corner mod

    So Ive dug around for this mod and a lot of people are making these into signals. I on the other hand want to switch around and make them static up top. Two questions. Are the corners on the bottom portion of the grille the same as the uppers? And what is the wiring color code for just parking...

    “Lag”?

    yeah, basically its what it does. but any other time it doesnt do it. just under heavy acceleration.

    “Lag”?

    Noticed a little bit of lag in my truck. Not sure if its transmission related or not. Maybe it is and Im just thinking by default my 5.7 is old and tired and just on its way or whatever. This is more of the “get up and go” deal when getting in short on ramps while in congested traffic and you...

    Tuning for e-fan conversion?

    Mint. I was originally going with the flex-a-lite controller. Thats probe and all with the variable speed controller as well. Now I feel better and at ease that I dont have to tune anything when I go that route. Flip side- I do plan to tuck away a lot of the wiring and keep everything factory...

    Tuning for e-fan conversion?

    Man I missed out on a lot. Look. I asked a simple question and got maybe two good solid answers out of the 5 pages of bickering. The electric fan vs mechanical fan debate is basically comparing apples to oranges. Both do the same job, just one does it differently than the other. I still dont...

    Tuning for e-fan conversion?

    Yeah I have the steel blade. So I could simply swap in an 11 blade plastic one? What specific model do those come from or is that an aftermarket option that I can snag. Would it also be direct swap? Sounds a lot easier than the actual e-fan conversion.

    Tuning for e-fan conversion?

    Doesnt make sense that it would engage right before it even gets to temp or peak it. Gets old when youre turning on to a busy road (where I work) and then the only thing you hear is the fan roaring as youre trying to get to speed. Thats all what Im trying to eliminate. Wont kick on at any other...
