    5.0 daily driver

    Alright as much as I'd like to just put the loudest ******* child exhaust on this thing I could after binging on episodes of Roadkill for a week, I need to daily drive this truck and possibly go distance with it. I'm wondering what muffler would be a good choice to plumb into my 5.0 vortec...

    Extended cab vs standard cab 2WD 4L60E

    Just trying to figure this out for my 97 C1500 ECLB, I've found a 97 RCLB parts truck with a 4L60E yet every junkyard I talk to says the two are not interchangeable but can't tell me why. Anyone got any ideas on this?

    4L60E rebuild in house?

    Ok so me and my dad have been discussing rebuilding the blown 4L60E in our shop if possible since he has rebuilt several 700R4s, anything I should know? All the transmission guys around here seem to have a lips sealed policy.

    88 305 starting issue

    I'm working on my uncle's 88 305 TBI and one of the things he asked me to figure is why it takes over ten cranks to start it when it's cold and over three when it's warm. Any ideas on what direction I should look in?

    95 4L80E

    Just wondering if its true that the 4L80Es in 95 are unique to that year and if so what it is that makes them different as the one in my 95 C2500 is completely shot

    92 4L60/700R4 compatibility

    The 4L60 in my 92 K Blazer let go and since I don't wanna drop more than the truck is worth into a rebuild I was wondering if an 80s 700R4 out of a K5 or K10 would work

    4L60 lock up torque converter

    Alright so i've Done the driving test for the lockup converter on my 92 K Blazer and it's obvious it's not working.

    Grille guard poll

    Trying to figure out if I wanna take the guard off my truck as the cheap thing is starting to rust everywhere. Either that or polish it and put lights on it. Tough call seeing how removing it leaves four holes in the bumper. Feedback is welcome

    Ex cab crossover roof plastic

    Ok so the piece of plastic running across the back of the headliner in my 97 ex cab is sagging down in the middle. I've tried popping it back into place and it would not go and trying to pull it down the rest of the way felt like I was gonna break it. Any suggestions?

    Looking for an opinion hear cuz I have been hearing mixed ones, I wanna make my front diff in my 92 Blazer engage properly and the thermal actuator (who thought this was a good idea?) seems to be 50/50 if it wants to work or not.

    EGR code 32

    ok 92 350 TBI, SES light comes on after cruising steady throttle for about 3 to 4 minutes, or randomly under hard acceleration then stays on until the truck turns off. Scanned it and came up with EGR code 32 but the numb nuts with the scanner did not know what the issue was. So where do I start...

    Alright so I was messing around with the Blazer earlier and decided to look into the A/C. When I turn it on the compressor clutch does nothing. Where do I start looking here?

    Speedometer drive

    On a 92 1500 how is the speedo driven? Mne seems to be off when I line it up with my GPS (which I know is fairly acurate) and without getting it jacked up I'm not sure if it's mechanical or electronic. Come to think of it this may belong in transfer cases cuz it's 4X4 but thats just details lol
