How does this truck even run if there's no computer?
Carb and distributor swap? That'd be a total disaster.
Im confused. Did it have a 4l60 and now it has a 700r4.
Could a 93 have a 700r4?
Does it have a 700r4 and he wants to put a 4l60e back into it?
Did it come with a 4l60 but it somehow runs with a 700r4?
Some part of this doesnt make any sense.
Could he have one of those super rare early 4l60 NOT "E" transmissions that are stlill marked as a 700r4?.
My first thougjt was this guy didnt have any idea what he was talking about.
My second idea was that on those early trucks when gm built them from whatever was in the parts bin you can have a real hard time if you only go off of the rpo codes based on whatever. you find on the internet.
When you look at RPO codes especially when you look at results from forumns you have to understand that GM reuses RPO codes over and over.
You have to start with the platform.
The best example of this is the G80 rpo.
G80 is the RPO for any type of traction control diff.
But a G80 on a truck is not the same as a G80 on a car.
They are both a type of traction control diff but they are not even remotely the same thing.
A G80 on a camaro or a firebird needs a friction additive in the gear oil.
A G80 on a truck is a Govlock and you will smoke it if you put a friction additive in it.
When you go online and try to decode the RPO for your truck you need to make sure that you are looking at the RPO for your truck and for your year of truck.
Pretty much everything you see on a camaro or firebird site is
big damn nonsense
The best thing you can do for yourself.
The fastest way and the best way to figure out to fix your truck and maybe yourself is to stay right here.
Its all about cars and trucks and all of the things that car guys do.
But there is a real soul from these people.
Dont miss out on that part of it.
