New owner of a 1996 Sierra K1500 here! 350 5.7L V8. It’s in excellent shape all things considered, has new shocks, fuel pump and starter. There’s just a few things I have to knock out like ball joints, steering box, distributor and plugs.
They switched over to port injection for some of the 1996 model trucks, which is what mine is so the distributor isn’t the 95 and earlier cap and rotor style, it’s the newer one but it’s in the same spot. What brands have people had good and bad luck with? If I have to pony up $200 for an OEM AC Delco I will because I have had good luck at times with aftermarket and also been burned; I don’t want to do this twice. But if there is a quality aftermarket one people have had luck with I’d appreciate any of that knowledge.
Thanks in advance to anyone who can help, and advice on steering box brand and spark plugs is also appreciated!
