Well sitting at the shop figuring out what the hell happening from the looks of it.... Its the dizzy that went and took a shit on me.

Aftermarket billet cams need a different distributor gear. If that gear is chewed up you should pull it and check the bearings and oil galleys.

HOLY ****, that came out of a "running" engine?! You didn't drop it or beat it with a hammer before taking that pic?? On a scale of 1 - 10 that's a 43.5.

Over the weekend, rotated the tires, changed the oil, then tried to fix a power steering line leak. That pressure line is just not easy to fix when you don't have a lift or the proper tools. That will get fixed next time I'm home from school.

All hail zip ties! The lock actuator in the driver side door was loose and causing all sorts of hell by not being bolted down.. guess it leaned over a little bit and as i put the window down, it broke whatever was holding it.. so i zip-tied that bastard and now i have full use of my automatic lock and window.

I installed my 2" lowering shackles and cranked my keys down. Anyone know just how far I can crank the keys down. Still got about a 1/4 inch to go. Will the adjuster bolt fall out if turned too far. Would like to get another 1/2 inch lower. Looks pretty good. Also ordered my Corvette servo last night. Looking for a Sun Visor for the drivers side. Light Gray with mirror and light.
1999 Yukon 4wd. Thanks, Bob
