    I hate ethanol fuel!

    American ethanol is a joke, if it was subsidized by the federal govt it would fail horribly. That being said, it runs fine in my vehicles! I wish I could get straight gas for my boat and 2 stroke landscaping equipment.

    I hate ethanol fuel!

    Every vehicle made since the early 90's has been designed to run on fuels with ratios of ethanol much much higher than 10%. INCLUDING THE GMT400!!! When the ethanol blends where first proposed decades ago, different ratios from 10-50% were proposed. The auto manufacturer hedged their bets and...

    I hate ethanol fuel!

    Also, in the 80's the entire automobile industry here stopped using natural rubber in fuel systems and switched to synthetic because of the use of alcohol fuels. Brazil is oil independent and have done extensive research on the subject, at the time the US was going to try and copy the Brazilian...

    I hate ethanol fuel!

    My 95 c1500 and my 96 Jeep cherokee both run great on E85 fuel. In the summer time I run the jeep one a 50/50 blend of E10 and E85, it runs a lot cooler which helps with the 4litre cooling issues. I say again, I have ran straight E85 in both with no problems, however I typically blend 50/50...

    Valence = better mpg?

    I have never liked the look of the valence, first thing I did was rip that off. I think it looks cleaner without it. What purpose does it serve, other than falling off practically everytime something touches it.

    2wd Leveling Kit?

    The 2" spacer in the front is the "lift", not a 2" spacer behind the wheel.

    Bed lining the rockers and bottom of doors/bed

    Thanks for the compliment, I bought 4 cans but only used 2. A little tip, if you warm up the can the product flows a lot better. A cold can will result in a uneven coat. I placed the cans in front of a small ceramic space heater till it was warm to the touch, not hot, perhaps 90 degrees or so...

    Bed lining the rockers and bottom of doors/bed

    Pleased to say after a couple of months the rustoleum bedliner is holding up really well, my driveway is gravel and the rocks I throw every morning when I leave don't seem to be phasing it. Best 15$ I've spent yet.

    Can't paint your rockers and bumper with bedliner, I get it.

    I didn't say I didn't like your truck, it's a clean truck. And also I didn't say one negative thing. I merely stated some dialogue as to why he hates bedliner/blacked out chrome.

    Grandpa's 1995 C1500 Reborn

    Pissed off isn't the word I would use, thought it was amusing after thumbing through 180 pages of this "build". Your truck basically looks stock, yet you bag on those how prefer a two tone look.

    Like smoked corners and roll pans and hid lights? Oh wait that's every truck on this site.

    Considering the made a Billion of these trucks, you gotta do something to make it your own.

    I'm guessing you think your truck looks cool then?

    Air Intakes?

    I'm going to stick to the high quality paper filter elements, I've read numerous articles about how much less effective oil charged filters are at doing what they are supposed to do, which is FILTER. My father-n-law owns a napa store, I get filters for about 6$

    Air Intakes?

    The Volant does look like a nice unit. But for 250$ the juice isn't worth the squeeze. I could care less about the HP increase, it's probably less than advertised. I achieved an average of 14 miles more per tank with a free piece of tubing, it also sounds a little nicer and has a little bit...

    Air Intakes?

    I can't see the logic in buying these aftermarket intakes. They cost way more than a 16" piece of tubing and they suck "hotter" air. I do think they are more aesthetically pleasing though. The reason I say "hotter" is becase the air under the hood is said to be hot. This is true if the vehicle...

    It was a very good looking car to begin with, then they shat all over it.

    2wd Leveling Kit?

    I'm running 33x12.5r15 MTR on 15x8 cragars with just the 2" spacer in the front, stock in the back. Slight rub on the frame at full lock.
