    air in cooling system?

    thanks for the advice, i'll try bleeding it again, over flow is at correct level. i was thinking about the drill a couple holes trick in the thermostat, i've never experienced an issue like this on other sbc, although, it looks as if the upper radiator hose is higher than the radiator, this...

    new vortec engine replacement or 5.3 swap. $2K budget

    hmm never had an issue with the 7730 and it was basically free, with my 5.0 TPI i lay down 380hp and 420 ft/lbs to the wheels and it purrs like a kitten cruising.

    new vortec engine replacement or 5.3 swap. $2K budget

    from what it sounds like a 5.3 swap is the way to go assuming you can keep it down for a short while to do the swap. tuning is easy but a pain in the butt, i've tuned my supercharged camaro with the stock GM 7730 using code59, she runs good but a lot of time was invested to street/dyno tune it.

    new vortec engine replacement or 5.3 swap. $2K budget

    option1 = simplicity option 2 is what i would do in my truck (it's semi daily, mostly in the winter :) ) the tuned 383 either sell it, or put a beefed up 700r4 behind it, no computer needed.

    Delete oil cooler lines

    no, you need new bolts... do a search i forgot the exact size, it's 5/16 i think x 1" forgot the pitch. remove the old paper gasket up there too, it blocks the divert passage in case the filter clogs.

    power steering problem

    guys, just an update, i replaced the power steering pump with another remanufactured one, so far so good, no steering issues, it's weird how that reman pump didn't show signs until after a month or so of being on there, comparing the 2 pumps, the original one i put on the return hose the metal...
