    04 Suburban oil pan, whew

    Well, reached our goal of 350k, but she's done. Transmission fine, engine smokes on startup and went through huge amount of oil in a day. I don't have time to rebuild my daily work truck, so sold it to a mechanic who can and searching for a new used burb. Celebrating the ride, and looking at...

    I would really like a turbo 400 in my truck

    If you convert a th400 to a 4l80e, and have an ecm, can the chip be burned to control it? Or do you still need a stand alone controller?

    1987 454 TBI stalls at idle after a short time

    Great read to learn from. I was thinking of getting a backup ecm, and chip burn gear so I can work with a programmer/tuner.

    TBI spare parts

    Funny, that's the exact one I purchased. I have the adapter Installed after fuel filter and set our psi. I have purchased an in-line fitting and gauge I was thinking of permanently installing instead, but really need to have section of fuel line shortened by hydraulic shop to keep something...

    Welcome aboard by the way. Maybe a junk yard bed around there is feasible. I'm sure guys will chime in on years that fit.

    Options for tuning of Gen1 TBI in 2023

    My intake and fuel regulator took almost three months from them. Hopefully when we do the throttle body it will be different.

    Hi

    That's much simpler than what I had in mind. I over think. However I was going to put in a aftermarket top plate that has it at an angle, and try installing picked parts, tube to bumper. Thanks for the pics!!! Edit, you did install the tube to bumper?! Maybe one more pic? Your not at an angle?

    Options for tuning of Gen1 TBI in 2023

    Yes I thought the ebl flash 2 would be efficient you can send logs and files back and forth to someone etc. not chips. I'm guessing you could do that with the eprom but not as easily. You have some tuners over there? Look at megasquirt also. At this point I'm hoping data tells me we didn't...

    Options for tuning of Gen1 TBI in 2023

    Not yet. I have the obd diagnostics 12pin to USB. I wanted to go in the dynamic-efi direction, but sadly Bob (Robert) passed away. I plan on running aldl Droid to see where she is at. I'm expecting what tuning I may need will be done old school. If I see ( or think I do) eeprom seems like...

    Planning my next next project...engine?

    Time and money. I like a 350, very reliable engine you can do alot with. If your pulling an engine to clean the bay, you'll definitely learn some stuff. To keep cost down Rick has great suggestions there. It'll be hard to put a greasy engine in a clean bay though. I had two broken exhaust...

    What have you done to your square lately??

    Yeah, I've thought about rear floods just for pulling boat out of the lake in the dark. I see how easy to add into backup though. Definitely shouldn't take out one of those trash cans.

    That's good. It was suck to think someone trying to steal it. Dawgs are good, except one of mine alerts to squirrels and late night cats.

    What have you done to your square lately??

    I am wondering if someone tried breaking in? That's a goto spot. Probably made a noise and scared them? Just thinking criminally in all.

    Can anyone tell me what this is??

    Yeppers and bald tires. Really, it's just some of the drivers playing Nascar. WTF? 70 speed limit here is dangerous .
