    What have you done to your square lately??

    Well I found that I was leaking coolant from the rear of the engine. I immediately assumed the worst and thought it was a blown head gasket or atleast seapage from the head gasket. I carefully examined the engine with a flashlight, clean paper towels, and a Little mirror. I was sure it was...

    Diagnosing mysterious sound from Tran/Tcase

    I solved my issue by ultimately adjusting the rear pinion angle up more. I shimmed it more than I thought was necessary based on the math a I did, but it worked so I'm not conplaining. I can now go very fast and it's a smooth ride.

    1991 Suburban 3/4 ton: TBI to Holley Sniper conversion - stupid, or worth it?

    Heres my two cents: When i bought the holley sniper Intended to use it with a built 383 stroker that i planned to put in my truck. But because i was impatient I immediately threw it on the old TBI 454 i had in my truck. I also swapped on a no name single plane intake manifold I had on the...

    If you have link to the specific bulb you used for instrument panel, I would be interested. I need to replace bulbs in the dash anyways.

    Amazon special/ Led Headlights

    I've heard good stuff about auxbeam. I was turned onto beamtech/techmax from another forum... so that's what I went with. It's hard to argue with bulbs that cost less and have better light output.

    If your up to the task would you mind getting some photos of the beam pattern against a wall at 25 ft? Id be curious to see how the light pattern compares.

    Nobody warned me about the MPGs on these square bodies!

    The baffled tank is 100% the solution. When I installed my Holley sniper I plumbed my 87 baffled tank with new lines and installed an inline pump on the inside of the frame rail. I did all the work with supplies found in the sniper master kit... 5ish years later everything still works and I've...

    Amazon special/ Led Headlights

    Tested as follows. Kissed the wall with the front end and procededed to make a mark with tape slightly below the light hotspot. Backed up to 25-30 feet from the wall and aimed the lights at that mark. Here are three photos shot on iPhone 1billion ultra max pro. 1st is auto focused, 2nd low...

    Amazon special/ Led Headlights

    There has been a lot of previous discussion about headlights and led retrofitted headlight. Many claim that led bulbs cannot be used in reflector housing because of law and or because they do not have sufficient light cutoff and blind other drivers. Can't say for certain wether or not they are...
