    Anyone installed the HT383E in their Tahoe?

    5.7 Distributor Ain't it a Grand Design!!

    I've had a 98 Tahoe since 2008 when it had a mere 65k miles on it.

    I loved the bright red paint on my 2 door when I bought it with 65K miles on it back in 2008, the clear coat began flaking off and I had it painted less the clear at about 175K miles (STOOPID I know!). Now thru lack of care the paint is faded and it's time to pay my stoopid tax and get the paint...

    LS swap is happening

    Not sayin' that's all bad, I put most of my WOT time on ATV's though. It's a nicer walk most of the time. That can be a good time, usually more fun right before the breakage.

    Good plan, I'm starting to get a little play, just looking to avoid those phone calls for help when I can.
