    Refurbishing Throttle Body

    For the Vortec 5.7L (L31), what all would be involved in refurbishing the throttle body to a like new condition? I can replace the sensors. I can spray it thoroughly with throttle body cleaner. I am looking at some photos online, and there appears to be a bearing that the butterfly throttle...

    Running a Vortec 5L with a 5.7 PCM..

    Been using the PCM from the parts truck the 5L was in for a few months now, but it thinks I'm geared to 3.73 and am running 254/75R16s (30.5s). The 5.7L PCM (which is now back in the truck with the 5L engine and running) obviously thinks the engine is bigger, but is correctly programmed for the...

    I am eyeballing a future project involving a 4bbl L31 intake and a Holley Terminator 4bbl kit with transmission control, and even adding in the Holley ignition parts if I don't feel like integrating the Vortec distributor.

I can get it started and...

    96 C2500 dies after 10 minutes then never starts..

    Hey all! I am actually posting this for my neighbor. He has a 96 C2500 ECLB with the 350. He bought it cheap with a blown motor, put another one in it, got it running. Well a couple of times it would randomly cut off, then start right back up. Now, it only runs for about 10 minutes after letting...
