    1999 GMT400 K2500 Suburban Part Out

    Carbon is all cleaned and the gasket material is gone. Taped the surface with Jalar to protect them during the paint. The underside of the intake runners is not painted. You could find a table saw table and deck them with a lil' 4000 grit? They came out great.

    Electric Fan Temps

    In my opinion, one should come on with water temps and the second with A/C demand, as required. When I ripped the A/C from my Honda, the secondary fan was not required for cooling. It never overheated, once A/C was removed. That said, the GM system runs cooler-ish as a stock feature. If you run...

    Making the Fuel System Simple

    Yes. Yet the screens could be clogged and the o-rings flat because they have been ignored during a pull through mod, right? Temporary fixes can burn up your engine.

    Making the Fuel System Simple

    Dragsters are known to run internal/internal or internal/external or external/external; redundant pumps. In-tank OEM pump is preferred for a couple of reasons: External has recommended distance BELOW AND FROM the fuel tank, for suction and back flow. External pumps, tend to get very hot and...

    Did I buy the right np241 TC for my truck??

    Here's the conversion kit. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0BF84D18H/ Same price on the Walters Engineering website. This looks much easier to install on the 241C or NP208C, than pulling the 4L80E 4wd unit apart, to add VSS. Would allow you to use any non-electronic or 4wd electronic transmission...

    Wiper washer motor replacement. Who you buying from?

    You can search for a newer year pump with the delay/timing module inside the pump. This removes the wiper switch and the stoopid delay circuit on the standard pumps made for the GM unit your truck came with. I thought it was the 2000 or 2001 pump from a van? Can't recall off hand. Try searching...

    help me find this ticking noise on my truck ( 1978 Chevy C10 305 )

    Your 3/8" rocker studs could be worn threads. If the same cylinders keep rattling loose, you are a candidate for Locks. Poly Locks, tall valve covers and at least 2 valve adjustments to the Poly-Locks. The studs might be worn and the stock style lock washers may not be locking anything. If...
