    1997 5.7 vortec, Black, Red, Grey, or aluminum rtv

    So I gotta ask what sealant is best for the lower intake manifold, Black (oil resistant) Red (Hi -temp), Grey (vibration and hi torque), and aluminum ( the ketup packet that came with the intake gaskets). Which would be the best for the wall. Sometimes I see red used a far bit, but wouldn't...

    Weird question about a bypass filter

    Weird question, but is there a way to hook up a bypass filter to a 97 5.7 vortec? I assume it's way to overkill for an engine like that.

    Stupid question about leds a transmissions.

    So I have a stupid question, but I heard once that the leds lights can blow up ur transmission because the computer is looking for the resistance. I know the front lights would be blinding to other ppl. And of they do need a resistor, do they led lights come w/ one. And or do the actual housings...

    LED Lighting

    Well I ain't deaf ears but I'm full of dumb questions, I heard once that the leds need the restor to stop ot from blowing the transmission? Is this true and do most light fixtures come with them? I ask since the name fits, I have a 97 yukon if that helps

    How do I OM out the sensors for a 1997 5.7 vortec.

    So I've pulled the lifters. Nothing was chewed, only a small scratch line on an exhaust lifter. The tick was probably coming for on of the pushrods not being fully seated. A good handful of rods are pretty snatched up to. But I still haven't pulled the cam, however I did check the lobes with a...

    How do I OM out the sensors for a 1997 5.7 vortec.

    Already fixed this and no the better injectors I was talking about was the MFI spider instead of the stock 1997 spider. I just have an issue with my cam and lifters now.

    How do I OM out the sensors for a 1997 5.7 vortec.

    I agree, but any time you look at bearing surfaces I feel like there always bad anyway. But the tap only just started to get bad so idk. Washing it out with 0w-16 might help

    How do I OM out the sensors for a 1997 5.7 vortec.

    Cam is now chewed and lifter is dead, do I have to pull the engine for a cam replacement or do I just remove the radiator and condensers. Also I've read into the ls7 lifters. You can use them, apparently in 97 (and I believe lifters 2014 and down are interchangeable) they designed their lifters...

    How do I OM out the sensors for a 1997 5.7 vortec.

    Pretty sure, it's central to the block, can't really hear above the bay, but in the fenders you can.

    How do I OM out the sensors for a 1997 5.7 vortec.

    I would agree but it's not a stock engine with a mild cam, it's why I ask. And low key I wanna replace the eight because the engine had a sketchy rebuild so

    How do I OM out the sensors for a 1997 5.7 vortec.

    56-7 psi Key on 52 psi running 58 psi after idle I know that's a little on the low side but is a brand new pump, so my gaude might be off. The distributor is an accel one not chinesium, the only reason is got a duralst rotor is cuz I broke it and need a quick replacement. And those china walls...

    How do I OM out the sensors for a 1997 5.7 vortec.

    I have a scan tool and it's how I know I have a misfire on cylinder 2 + the count, I just really need to know how to ohm out the map, maf, and o2 sensors. I also have data for those sensors. The distributor is brand new and the rotor is a duralast one because it's a bit more insulated the the...

    How do I OM out the sensors for a 1997 5.7 vortec.

    So my 97 5.7 vortec has had a backfire problem for about 2 - 3 months now and it's driving me insane. It has a cylinder 2 misfire right now but when it doesn't misfire, it runs as smooth as glass. I've replaced my fuel pump, coil and the icm next to the coil, the full distributor along with...
