    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 put over 230k miles on that 5.7, loved it and it never let me down unless the distributor got wet or accumulated a few miles on it. I put more distributor caps and rotor buttons on that 5.7 than I put on all of the many trucks...

    Rear Axle Swap

    Hi, I have to replace the seals and maybe more on my rear differential, it got so low when I started driving it again after a couple of years the vibration was pretty bad the last time I drove 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!).

    Spiders, I hate Spiders, Performance

    Hey gear heads! So the HT383 goes in this week. The spider injection system is original. I ordered stainless headers today and think it would be a great idea to open the intake side up as well. The Holley rep wasn't encouraging when we discussed the options, I'm not too keen on 2...

    I'm swapping out the engine (new HT383E) in my 2 door 4x4, the transmission pan was dropped fro service since it's been sitting for a couple of years.

    HT383E In a '98 2 Door Tahoe

    Hey, looking for information on headers and torque converters for mostly general road use with a little offroading. No rock climbing just getting out away from things state and national parks with varied terrain. Thinking shorty's and ceramic for the headers after breaking the engine in. Not...
