    L83 5.3 with 7500rpm build - Suggestions?

    Denali (short) or XL? fold down the rear seats and have enough room for race rubber, floor jack, tools, cooler, chairs & tent. guess you could unbolt the second seats for weight reduction. AutoX my ricer burner from 2001-2006 before going overseas..always a chore to load race rubber and all...

    4 Caliper Question and Wheel Check

    This may cause the caliper to hit the wheel however. (anyone know if these wheels clear?) I had to use spacers to clear my 22" snowflakes..looking around for +2019 wheels.. you might be able to grind down the extrusion on the front of the caliper or you may need to use a spacer I didn't have...

    Fast idle on startup

    cold start.. with fuel injected vehicles..the ecu like to richen the air-fuel ratio from 14.7 to about 12.5 for a short period of time. think of it as what the choke plate did to the airfuel mixture on carbureted motors. and then the ecu will start to lean the air fuel ration from 12.5 back to...

    L83 5.3 with 7500rpm build - Suggestions?

    +1 for the crate motor. and since you already have a supercharger..you did not mention if you have an intercooler. water/meth injection did wonders for my 2.0 turbocharged ricer burner. went from 249 to 298 whp & 224 to 249 ft-lbs at the same boost 16 psi. it has an air-air intercooler. I get...

    LTFT +20...adding a bunch of fuel..do you smell gas when its running? you would see it in mileage..and how it is running. a coworker's silverado had something similar..but you could smell the gas when idling. he had a stuck injector. same code, no msfire cels.. yes pull the plugs first. use...

    2017 Tahoe 'Newly' replaced transmission temps

    transmission main cause of overheating is the lack of fluid. think of all those plates & clutches and no fluid. time bomb waiting to go off. did you check the dip stick for fluid level? outside chance..the thermostat stuck and fluid not getting to the cooler. did you check the dip stick for...

    Welcome from N O R T H F L O R I D A ! bought my 2016 Tahoe LTZ with 132K when I had to replace my stock torque covert with a Luk (~$450) version. I had the TCM reflashed to lock up in 5 & 6 gear. it wouldn't hurt to service the transmission (filter & fluid), if you don't have any records of...

    10L80 Transmission, best way to lower exhaust for PPE pan install?

    I just noticed you have 10L80 tranny. so my comments were from my 6l80. the rear of the y-pipe had a large clamp to cat-back section. no hangers, just fun with dropping the y-pipe. removing the O2 sensors from y-pipe was a "piece of mind" thing so you don't damage them.

    2017 Tahoe catalytic converter replacement

    i stand corrected..P0420 code on a Chevy Tahoe indicates that theBank 1 catalytic converter (driver's side) is operating below efficiency threshold. While often signaling a failed catalytic converter, it is frequently caused by downstream oxygen sensor issues, exhaust leaks, or engine issues...

    2017 Tahoe catalytic converter replacement

    P0420..cat inefficiency code for down stream O2 sensor. check rock auto for replacement rear O2 sensor before replacing the Y-Pipe. And actually replacing the Y-pipe can be done in less than an hour if you have access to a lift. I had to drop my Y-pipe when I replaced my torque converter.

    10L80 Transmission, best way to lower exhaust for PPE pan install?

    the rear crossmember behind the tranny & cross pipe make things easier. I know when I replace the tranny pan (the one with a drain bolt) I will have the enjoyment of doing the Y-Pipe drop again.. yes, you can do it with truck on ramps, but easier on a lift.
