    I'm a Kiwi from New Zealand, moving to Australia soon and taking the C1500 1999 Suburban LS with me, and wanted to know, is it an OBS?

    What headers did you run on your 4wd obs ls swap?

    I’m working on ls swapping a 92 gmc Sierra k1500 with a motor from an 04 Yukon. I’m curious what headers y’all ran on similar swaps? I’m looking for something pretty much plug n play so I don’t have to do any fab on the exhaust, or not too much at least. Thanks for any info!

    Top end vs 383 stroker

    So, im aiming for about 430 crank HP. Is it possible to hit this without messing with bottom end. What would AFR top end kit, pistons (aiming for 10:1 compression ratio), a cam, Holley 650 cfm, and long tube headers get me? Or is it worth the extra 1300$ to 383 stroke it. Seems like I can get...

    Gas tank leaks a gallon of gas after filling up.

    Like the title says, every time I fill up, the pump clicks I remove the pump, then a gallon of gas comes flowing out the top of the tank. I don’t seem to have a fuel leak otherwise. It seems it may be coming out a vent on the top of the tank. Any ideas?
