    Shane's 98' GMC C1500

    Did the big High and Low HID install today! I chose to go with 6k bulbs. I also picked up the 4-Hi kit, but I have to add an extra length of wire for it to reach my battery. Attached are pictures of where I mounted the ballasts. On the passenger side where the battery is, I had to re route the...

    Shane's 98' GMC C1500

    Early in January, I was driving home from the city. I pulled over because my water temp gauge said I was over heating. To my astonishment, I had blew my intake manifold gaskets. So those were replaced. Was more of a pain than anything else, because my family doesn't own a garage. I had to get...

    Shane's 98' GMC C1500

    Future plans? Lots! In no particular order: - Car starter / Unlocking Device (I went far too long without this!) - 4 High Headlight Upgrade - High and Low HIDs (Haven’t decided between 5or 6k, whatever matches my park light LEDs the best) - A 2/2 drop (Since I plan to tow a small camper with it...

    98' GMC Build (She'll progress faster than most)

    Just replaced both oil cooler lines and a power steering line due to leaking all over the place! Now that the truck is working at 100%, I can now start to focus on some of the stuff on the list.

    98' GMC Build (She'll progress faster than most)

    Shortly after the intake manifold gaskets got fixed, my fuel pump dropped out. Worst part of the situation was I was still jobless at the time. No pictures because a fuel pump is pretty generic.

    Steering Wheel Replacement?

    I'm considering replacing the old leather wrapped wheel that the old owner effectively destroyed and was wondering if any specific tools are needed for the swap. Because I don't want to lose the airbag when I do the swap (Want to keep the interior mostly stock in function and form), I'm...

    My new 1996 k2500 eclb

    What might also help with your mileage problem is synthetic oils if you're not already doing so. Nothing wrong with reducing friction in the engine! 14 isn't bad for a big truck like yours! I think the best I could get out of my half ton was around 17 or 18, but that's all highway! I'm running...

    My new 1996 k2500 eclb

    Happy to see that the truck found a better owner. She's lookin' a lot healthier then she was haha.. If you weren't aware, the stock intake is fine and not very restrictive. They use the same one on the 454 vortecs so it should be good enough for a 350. I personally just run the stock with a drop...

    New to the forum. Have a few Vortec questions.

    I know nothing about that LT4 Cam, so I can't answer your roller rocker question. I know with the new springs you can get close to 0.550 maximum lift. Just gotta remember, with computer controlled engines you can't go too lumpy. I would get it tuned after if everything works out. Lol

    Anybody have Falken tires?

    Even though they're the first tires I've bought for my truck, no complaints for summer driving. I'll stick to my stockers for the winter.. All and all, buy them. I have 265/50R20 for my 2wd. A little rubbing in the front, but only when really cranking on it so it's not an issue for me
