    GMT-400 Alignment issues

    Yeah they gave me a printout but I left it in my truck and haven't been back to get mine yet. Took it in for an alignment because the Camber was noticeably out just bye the eye and and it is pulling to the right. Havent driven the truck enough to know about uneven tire wear.

    GMT-400 Alignment issues

    Doubtful the arms are bent because both sides are the same. I am all to aware of the wheel bearings but everything in the front end is new. Seriously want to do a SAS on it but I cant find a furd front differential here for anything. Maybe I just have better friends then people with furds :dogpile:

    Someone please help me save an 84 K10

    Yes you are correct 96 vortecs do have mechanical pump provisions, However its only the casting, they are not drilled for the pump pushrod, and the cam is not eccentric for the mechanical pump.

    GMT-400 Alignment issues

    Took my daughters truck in for an alignment today. They checked the front end out and said all was good so I left, hour or so later they call and say they cant align it because the Caster and Camber are to far out and wont pull in. The knockouts have supposedly already been taken out, and the...

    What color is this Green? I need some help

    That looks like a pretty close match but. If you take a piece of paper and cut two squares in it slightly smaller then your samples then you can hold the sample behind the 1 hole and the other hole just let the factory paint show through it. Takes the back ground all out of it and puts your eyes...

    91 K5ton wiring problem solving.

    Ok just have a few concern's. #1you said the Original cab harness was cut all to hell, and you replaced it with a non cut up one from an 87-88. IIRC 91 cluster's were pinned differently then 87 or 88. Your problem with the temperature gauge pegging sounds to me like your pigtail is crossed up...

    5.7 vortec swap need help/advice

    You wont need to buy an additional reluctor ring. The picture of the tail shaft and housing already has the reluctor installed. I would purchase a paper and rubber set which will include all of your gaskets even valve body and pan. I will try to find you a link to the gasket set

    5.7 vortec swap need help/advice

    ok I am close to having your spreadsheet one. Been waiting to find out on what you were planning, I can go ahead and get it finished up hopefully in the next few days. I have been pretty busy with working on fixing the body up on my Dodge but I will get you squeezed in there.

    Need some swap opinions

    I am thinking the doors are not the original doors, I am betting the actual truck is a 95 with 96 doors on it. Not that it matters but compare the VIN from the door to the dash. IMHO I would not even consider doing the work on swapping the TBI engine over, may as well get a good Carb and be...

    Need some swap opinions

    Post a Picture of the engine in the 96, I have never seen a NON vortec 96. As for the LT1 engine the ONLY way I would do that swap is if you spend use a carb, with the old style ignition system. I HATE THE OLD OPTI SPARK SHIT, especially in trucks!!!

    5.7 vortec swap need help/advice

    Need to know what your plans are for a few things before I can finish the spreadsheets. Air Conditioning? Engine data sensors Example: Temperature gauge, Oil pressure gauge. Are you going to be using the 78 wiring for these or the newer 97. Cruise Control? If you plan on using...

    Very true you can indeed re-flash for first style PWM.

    5.7 vortec swap need help/advice

    It will take me a little time to get the spreadsheet done but I will get started on it. If there is anyway you can get me a VIN from the donor engine it would help a lot. 1995 GM started using a PWM (pulse width modulation) in the 4L60E, 1996 GM changed the programming of the PWM and a few...

    5.7 vortec swap need help/advice

    Ok first things first, You will not regret this repower. No there not as peppy as the LS motors but they are in deed a HUGE improvement over the earlier carbed and TBI 350's. Considering you are swapping from an inline 6 you may nut all over yourself the first time you punch it. There are...

    5.7 vortec swap need help/advice

    I will be back on later tonight and I will try to answer more in depth what you will need. but as for the VATS system, if it is TRULLY a 97 then it will NOT have vats installed. 98 is when they started that crap.

    5.7 vortec swap need help/advice

    I would not hesitate one bit dropping that power unit in that truck. It is actually a pretty straight forward swap. The Transmission WILL need to be torn apart and have the output shaft switched to a 2wd. That is a pretty basic job do it your self and save some money or pay a shop and have it...

    Thinking of swapping to ls

    Unless your switching to DBC you wont need that anymore. If your switching just find the cable and follow it back, usually mounted to the firewall. Don't forget to cut the wiring so you have a pigtail.

    Thinking of swapping to ls

    Again you can STILL have cruise control with a DBC throttle body. If you choose not to that would be your call, Just trying to clear this up for you or anyone else that may read this thread. Yes you can always add that later, but if you are having a harness built, or re-wired it would be a...
