    Comp Cams XR275HR

    Does anyone have any experience with the comp cams XR275HR cam in a 5.3L? This is what Comp Cams recommended for me with a Yank Truck Thruster 2600 converter and new springs and push rods. I've found a few videos of a 5.3 with that cam and it sounds nasty. Just wondering if anyone has had an...

    Pulleys

    I've always wanted to ask this question but never have. What is the purpose of an underdrive pulley. I mean obviously it spins your accessories slower but does it actually impact your performance? I found one that claims to give you an extra 6.5 lbs-ft of torque at the rear wheels but that...

    JB Emission System Cleaner

    I've getting an intermittent code involving my cats and O2 sensors. It comes and goes with no regularity. I've got an AutoTap and I've been trying to troubleshoot but I can't tell if it's a Cat or O2 sensor or even something else. A friend of mine who is a mechanic recommended this stuff. Has...

    Cat or O2?

    So here's the deal. For a while now I've been unhappy with the way my truck is running. When it's cool outside it runs great but when it's hot it tends to bog down and seems sluggish. At times it even fails to accelerate under heavy throttle. I've been taking it easy and doing some...

    She Cleans up nice.

    Guys, I haven't posted anything in a while so I figured I'd post some pics of The Tramp after she got a bath and some detailing. That and I just got my new Epic 4G and wanted to test out the camera. Yeah I know...I need to scrub the white letters on the tires. This is the new...

    Intake Gaskets

    Hey guys, I got a code last week about my knock sensors not working so I undertook the task of replacing them myself. Of course in the process I replaced my intake manifold gaskets. I have to say, it improved my performance noticeably. The gaskets were flattened out quite a bit and there was...

    De-Etching Glass and Plastic

    Hey guys, I decided to detail my wife's 2000 mountaineer with my Maguire's Swirl-X. Her truck was in kinda bad shape so I laid it on thick and spent a long time buffing it out. I accidentally got some on her window and it occurred to me that it might help with the etching. I buffed it out a...

    Holy Crap!

    I was looking around ebay and found these. Not sure how they would look but I'm intrigued. Anyone know anything about these? They are supposed to fit the 2000 - 2006 Tahoe's...

    Wheel Hub

    Searched and didn't find a thread that answered my question so I thought I'd ask. I changed out the brake pads on "the Tramp" a few weeks ago and when I got the caliper back on the rotor I spun it to make sure everything was cool and I heard a very, very faint tinking sound. Hard to describe...

    De-Molded and De-Stepped

    I was watching Monster Garage re-runs last night and I got to thinking..."Ya know" I said to myself "you haven't screwed anything up in a while, why not tonight". So I went into the garage with a hairdryer, some fishing line, a couple of 150 watt shop lights, and some goo gone. Here are the...

    21 MPG in Town???!

    I'm not sure if this is correct or not because I haven't filled up yet but 3 days ago I reset my Avg MPG on the hoe and have been driving to work and back averaging 21 MPG. How is this possible? I'm driving pretty nice and the speed limit on the road I take to work is 40 MPH. The trip is 8.8...

    Test and Tune

    Since we are going to be in Ft. Worth Friday getting a Black Bear tune by Justin, Dave and I decided to go to the San Antonio Raceway and get some numbers to compare the before and after. It was test and tune night and there weren't many people there so we got in several runs and got some really...

    Front Bumper

    I'm sure this has been addressed somewhere but is there a way to adjust the front bumper alignment to close the gap between the bumper and the fender?

    LED Hyper-flash

    I'm shopping for LED's for my corners and side marker lights. I'm looking at V-LEDs.com. I know that we need load resisters to eliminate the hyper-flash but they offer 2 different ones and a replacement flasher as well. What is the best way to handle this. Not real shot up about the resisters...

    First Mod on the New Truck

    I had convinced myself that I wasn't going to do any mods to my new Hoe till I got it paid off. Problem was I had a Corsa Sport CBE kit and a partial Spectre CAI sitting in my garage. I had decided I was going to sell my Corsa because it would not bolt on to my new truck since it was made for a...

    She's gone

    On my way to work this afternoon a car pulled out in front of me and I hit it. The old Hoe just wouldn't shut down in time. Thank God no one was hurt but it completely demolished the front passenger corner. I'm just sick. Thankfully they had insurance so I'm hoping I can get her repaired but...

    American Muscle vs Ricer

    First off I'd like to say that I hardly ever do this. My Tahoe is a daily driver and I'm a pretty laid back guy on the road. I just can't stand Ricers. On my way to get a strawberry shake at Wendy's, I came across a Honda 4 door with the fart can exhaust. He turned the same way I did so as we...

    Rear Windows

    When I got my Tahoe a few months ago, the rear windows would not roll down. I figured it was just a fuse but I can not figure it out. The window lock out is not on and the two front windows roll up and down. I can hear a click in the doors when I push the button but the windows don't budge at...
