Never in the TMI zone haha



Oh man, looks like I’m not the only one who take the same pictures! Lmao

I’m tellin ya, if they weren’t so hard to find, and pricey, that would no doubt be in the Hoe!

Lol, I'm sure we're not the only ones !
I should've snagged it. Was on an 03 Burb. Had only 73,000 miles.

Finally got the trans pan off. Very little debris, fluid looked good, nothing unusual on the magnet. I think were good here.

But does it come out? Like 3/4 of them don’t...

So... we may change out the cam, since we found a couple lifters were messed up. Not sure how that happened. What cam specs would you guys suggest?

 

[bigfootchiro]

Comp Cams XR264 or 270?! 270 requires a custom tune, which can be done through 0411 swap

Actually, it did. I know, I was shocked, too. Lol

 

[Eds_Auto]

So, not sure how this happened, but got some new ones soaking.

Now, what you wanna do is simmer your lifters until the bubbles stop, that's how you know they are done.

Maybe someone on here has an idea of how this happened!

 

[bigfootchiro]

It’s pulling from my 0411 PCM swap fund... not happy!

Lots of talking. I like my big blocks mouthy

I do. I was talking about for him.

Oh ok. I was very confused for a sec. My grandfather actually had a 2000 RCLB 2500 with the 8.1 in it with about 200k miles on it. You could kiss the firewall with the fun pedal and watch the fun juice meter go down. Granted I'm sure your 6.0 or @bigfootchiro's 454 aren't exactly Priuses
