    Hum...Head gasket?

    I didn’t see it mentioned but do you have a cooler in the radiator tank? That is also a potential source of coolant/oil chocolate shake mixture that you have.

    L8P or L8T in 2018 PPV Tahoe

    The L8P engine has arrived, time to finalize the list before teardown begins. @NickTransmissions I am looking at installing the 10 speed trans but also want to build the 6 sp for another project. I will be in Vegas next week so I would like to talk about getting you the unit to work on, thanks!

    2021+ PPV Rims on 2020 and prior

    I used the full Belltech lowering kit that contained the drop spindles, springs, shocks and the other hardware to perform the swap. At the same time I installed the factory Brembo 6 piston front calipers and rotors along with the ‘21+ factory ppv 20” steel wheels. With almost 26k miles are her...

    L8P or L8T in 2018 PPV Tahoe

    You really grabbed my attention here as I am keeping her for awhile. I like the thought of the 10sp as it will be a better combo. After some brief searching , I am looking into ECM compatibilities with the 2018 ppv as I have not changed my cluster (not going to do that), I have not changed my...

    L8P or L8T in 2018 PPV Tahoe

    Yes, 5.3L with 6L80e. For this build and reference information to anyone else who reads this the trans will be completely overhauled. I was planning on using a Circle D convertor but they never respond to me so I will spend my money somewhere else. I am also upgrading the driveshaft and rear...

    2021+ PPV Rims on 2020 and prior

    Yes they do. I installed the 6 piston Brembo and the 21+ 20's on mine 2 years ago and installed a 3"-4" drop. They look good to me and the braking is awesome "on the track".

    L8P or L8T in 2018 PPV Tahoe

    I am not towing as this is more of a play time project. The L8P order is presently sitting at approximately 2 weeks. I am trying to find a good quality convertor to use that has an order lead time of less than 6 weeks. More updates to come as the parts become available.

    This is the correct answer for towing and definitely will save some cash.

    L8P or L8T in 2018 PPV Tahoe

    Getting close to installing the crate L8P in place of the AFM/DOD dying 5.3L. I noticed on this forum several L8T swaps but no L8P swaps. Any reason I should be aware of? I am not looking for a tow truck replacement engine so I am not worried about the larger cam pushing the power higher up the...

    Engine Temperature Keeps Getting Lost and Fans Run at Full Speed - SOLVED

    Mine just did the same thing, low heat from the heater and not reaching full running temperature. Replaced the t-stat and working correctly now.

    First problem after one year on 2018 Yukon XL Denali

    So are you saying that the misfire code came back with the new engine and the injectors were the problem?! I’m glad you got the new engine but it makes me think that the injectors were the problem the entire time. JMO

    Welcome to the group. I also hate the infotainment unit as it won't connect to my phone, tried every trick and just gave up.

    If you don't mind me asking, which Mishimoto trans cooler did you go with.
