    Mad Customs

    Welp, I think we got the driveline sorted. It's hard to say because there's other stuff making noise and rubbing. I think it's the passenger side header as my clearance during test fit is now gone. I was hoping that shimming the transmission up would fix it, but it didn't. I think I might be...

    Welp, got a doner.

    I didn't say you will make less torque. I said you get a curve similar to an LS. That's a good thing, IMO, but not everyone agrees.

    1988 GMC C1500 - Z06 Package!

    Vette Villains is a Corvette only junkyard. You know what, I have a C5 underhood insulator thingy if you want it. Has the vette logo on it. I think that's the last of my C5 parts left.

    Maybe his portable spittoon.

    That's some nasty looking fluid. Are they good now?

    Out of ideas - suggestions needed

    I had something very similar happen with my LS swap. It would not run with the MAF enabled, ran fine without it. Unfortunately, I don't think my fix will help you as I swapped the coil packs around and it suddenly worked. It might be an issue with the wiring or grounds. I think that was my...

    LC9 swap from donor truck - do it?

    Crawling is going to be more about gearing than torque. Plenty of 4 and 6 cylinder crawlers out there.

    I understand. The SBC just really wants to go without a lot of encouragement. My problem with it is after that.

    Those are so rare I forgot about them. LOL. There was a Yukon GT too.

    Lets see some dropped C1500s

    +1 on the drag wheel questions. 5x5 drag wheels are not common apparently.

    Would anything besides the 454SS even be considered collectable? They made millions of everything else as far as I know, except maybe the 2 door blazehoes/jimkons.

    There might be a small difference from the firing order, but you could correct that too. The SBC torque difference is, in my opinion, due to the reduced flow leading to an increase the velocity. The more you open them up the closer you get to an LS torque curve, which everyone here seems to hate.

    Don't worry. If they do I'll send you mine.

    Welp, got a doner.

    I have a theory that the engineers originally planned to use a higher displacement LS vs the Gen I counterpart. The 4.8 was to replace the 4.3, the 5.3 was to replace the 5.0 and the 6.0 was to replace the 5.7. (8.1 already replaced the 7.4.) But then the bean counters got involved and they...

    Can anyone help me identify this truck?

    I don't know mulch about it.
