    Remanufactured 5.3 source?

    You should take a core engine to a reputable local engine builder and have it built to your liking. You want to know where to find the guy if it breaks.

    Testing the water: FS/T 2013 Tahoe PPV

    I was out ripping around town in the Tahoe earlier today and just kept thinking how much fun it is to drive. And I’m talking to myself like, “Man, imagine if I installed those sway bars I bought months ago”, and “Imagine if I got a high stall converter”, etc.

    FS: Bilstein shocks for 2000 and earlier trucks

    For sale is a full set of Bilstein shocks removed from a 1999 or 2000 Yukon. They are gently used and appear to be close to new. I came across them by chance and they were so nice that I had to pull them. This set would cost well over $300 new. Who wants to save a few bucks and buy these...

    https://www.audizine.com/forum/showthread.php/943611-Stage-2-at-250k-miles-A-case-study Just keep in mind that the game plan changed a little bit along the way, so the introduction post isn’t completely accurate anymore. I got brand new turbo cartridges from Mellet in the UK and I’m now...

    Yeah the chain motors had some issues but this is a belt motor that basically doesn’t fail internally. Almost 100% of 2.7T failures are due to either the belt or cam chain guides failing. A few are due to running the engine out of oil. This is an engine that can be tuned to 500+ awhp without...

    Ha! My Audi is twin turbo, AWD, and manual trans… There are very few cars in that category. Not to mention Audis don’t rust. They are definitely maintenance-intensive, but they aren’t unreliable if you are willing to deal with all of the tedious work. I already have the car completely torn...

    If I’m not able to get what I want then I will just keep it and continue on with my plans. I own a parking lot, so it’s not like it’s taking up space or anything.

    Testing the water: FS/T 2013 Tahoe PPV

    Hey guys… I’m considering getting rid of my PPV. I absolutely love it but I just have too many cars and this one doesn’t do anything that the others can’t do. She is a 2013 that was brought to Chicago from Arizona. I am the second owner, and the first civilian owner. There is a full prisoner...

    Shit… I might just sell it… I’m not in a rush to sell to somebody looking for a cheap cop car, but I would probably be okay with passing this truck off to another enthusiast at the right price. I’m not looking to make money or even break even, but I know what I have. Keep in mind the...

    YES you should have discussed this with the shop in advance, BUT… A good shop doesn’t overlook stuff like that. They are supposed to be the experts.

    98 tahoe having to replace starter every year to year and a half?

    A lot of “bad” starters are really just clogged with grease. Any chance he has a major fluid leak that keeps soaking the starter?
