Steering Knuckle replacement
Does anyone know where I can find a steering knuckle for a 2000 C3500 SRW? The original OEM part number is 18060576. I have tried cross referencing everything at this point, but I can find a OEM replacement at all. I would even entertain putting a lift or lowering kit on it if I had too. The...- Clutchmaster404

Engine Backfiring While in time
Also, if anyone cares why I did this at all. If you’re familiar with buying crate engines from Jegs they come remanufactured from Mexico and I didn’t trust it.

Engine Backfiring While in time
Long story short I found the problem. Valves were too tight by about a 1/2 a turn. Not sure how that happened still, but it did work. However my idle air control valve also failed on me as well.

Engine Backfiring While in time
Recently dropped in a crate motor from Jeggs into a 2000 Chevy C3500 SWB with the 5.7l 350 Vortec. Everything was running pretty good before all this mess. After 2k it was time to readjust the valves after they fully seated (roller cam with rocker arms and pushrods). Stripped it down past the...- Clutchmaster404
