    Pics of my polished stock rims

    If you head north on RT 100 and make a left at the Walmart the store is just past the Walmart on your left. If you get to the T intersection you went to far.

    Crappy track times

    OK 1. I went to Maple Grove on sunday the 13th 2. Nope no fuel pump replacment yet. I already pressure checked it and it checks ok. Good base pressure and 1 psi of fuel for 1 psi of boost. 3. No scan tool. Did run the truck on datamaster but i can't open my DM files. KR was low and the...

    Crappy track times

    Hey guys I'm back. I went to the track this weekend and ran like crap. Besides sleeping off the line I was only able to get 12 lbs at wot. This is providing the gauge is right. I reinstalled the gauge supply line into the brake booster feed on the intake plenum. Good?? I also replaced the...

    A few Q's

    Hey guys I got a few questions for ya's. 1. My fuel gauge won't work right away. If I drive for about 15 min it will start to show the fuel level. When the truck is started it will stay stuck on the full mark. Any ideas? Everthing is stock. 2. I just replaced the vacum lines and if I...

    Gauges

    White97SVT Are they electrical or mechanical? Also where are the available at and $$? So what the VDO's aren't so hot? I've heard to stay away from the digitals like the Nordskogs, right? I really like the cobalts but I think $200 for the boost gauge, to salty for me. Considering the...

    Hey preciate the offer but just got called back to work today. So I'll probably be getting them within the next week or so. I'm still not sure which ones I want. I'm leaning towards the ATR's. I'll have to check the Taylors out cause I've heard good things. Most likely it'll be 1 of those 2. I...

    Gauges

    What brand gauges are recomended? I'm looking to install a new boost gauge and either a fuel pressure gauge or a fuel mixture. I was wondering which were better. Autometer, VDO(which I have now), Auto-gage, Nordskog, I'm leaning toward the Autometer Lunars or Cobalts. They look cool but...

    I know the crack is a no-go but I'm out of work right now. As far as the ohm reading the book says that under 25000 is acceptable. That's according to GM. The MSD has been on for about 3 years now and the problem I'm having is new. My pressure gauge isn't long enough for me to read it on a road...

    Just ohm test the wires and everyone of them has around a 5000 ohm resistance. That's providing my meter is right and I know what I'm doing. Does 5 g's sound resonable? I also checked gap and everthing is good there. Upon inspection though I noticed a small crack in the #4 boot. I know this is...

    does gmc hate us?

    I postd the same argument on another topic. The Siverado SS hardly stands up to the L in performance. But as a die-hard GM guy it is a nice truck overall. Also I've read interviews with GM officials and the goal of the SS was not to compete with the L. This is why it is offered in X-tended cab...

    Finished vaccum lines. Guess what? No F-ing difference. If I easy the throtle it will accelerate great and most of the time will get over ten pounds. If I dump on it, it does fine till 10 psi after that it cuts out stutters and falls on it's face. If I back out if it alittle it picks up and goes...

    Hey Will-in-Denver nice graphic. I don't like taking mine in the snow but it's alot of fun when I do. It don't take much to get them spinning. I have faith in the help, just till I get it figured it's quite frustrating. I havn't done the fuel pump yet, but which is most recomended. I'm almost...

    Oh no don't worry I'll never sell my baby. It's just that you want to smack it around a few times your so frustrated with it. The body could rot out from around and all I'll do is transplant the motor to something else. The other thing is that the knowledge of the problems and solutions aren't...

    The truck shutters or misses. That's why I thought that I wasn't getting enough fuel. I tried your test today. My base was 40-42 psi then at 5 psi of eledged boost it jumped to 52 psi of fuel. I don't know? I bought 14 ft of vaccum line and am in the middle of replacing that crap. This is like a...

    Thanx for the heads-up Eluding. I'll have to try that and see wat's up. I had the feeling that the pressre was not enough but not knowing how to check it. Also I got to run my truck and it still stumbles allittle at full boost. I have an ATR boost control valve and with it so cold it seems to be...

    '02 L goes down!...the road faster than me

    All in all when you look at it this comes down to GM guy vs a Ford guy. There is nothing wrong with that either. We wouldn't have 10 sec trucks without this rivalry. It's great. I'm a GM guy threw and threw and have to agree that any blue oval wanting to play will get a run, stock or not. Just...

    I just installed a new filter tonight but I haven't been able to run the truck yet. I'll find out in the morning, I'll do some test runs and maybe reinstall my ATR chip if things are better. The old filter was shot so hopefully that was my problem. Something so stupid and easy, DUH.I also was...

    Interchangable 2 bar

    Can a 2 bar map from an '87 Monte SS be used in a TY. Just for diagnosis reasons. I want to check if my map is reading ok. May be a dumb Q but just curious.
