Re: Went to install my new ZQ8 box yesterday only to find I allready have one? I got screwed by a member on a ZQ8 purchase that didnt live up to its claim. I'm wondering if we did business with the same person. PM me a hint if you dont mind.

Re: Valve lash / false knock Forged, as in pistons? I'll look into that. If so, the pistons were also in my last motor. Same block and pistons...new probem.

Re: Valve lash / false knock I hope so, too. I'll turn em all down one day this week and go from there. I'm certain the TC and flywheel bolts are sound. Rechecked when I put the trans in this weekend. Keep the suggestions coming in the mean time. Kinda feel like a jackass after all the money...

I've been battling false knock with my recently built motor. Its so bad that I'm getting kr just from reving the engine and while driving under light throttle. Its retarding at least half of the spark under light throttle and all of it in wot. I went out on a limb and replaced the trans (RPM)...

Re: AC hose part # Nothing was wrong with the GM part number. Was just hoping that LMC had it because of the cost. I did get the GM hose through gmpartsdirect. Was about $113 delivered and took a couple of weeks.

Re: Buyers Beware of Race Proven Motors. Re: Buyers Beware of Race Proven Motors. No offense, but its common knowledge for those who have been around the community for any length of time that the Vortec conversion requires a considerable amount of pricy machine work and welding to make it all...

This post is for ReyTyFoon's Sy 2265. The truck surges while at approx 30% tps. The DM file shows the wastegate clycling between 100 and 40% in a consistant pattern. He's using a late model Ultimate 3bar but not sure which version of program. He recently got the truck and info on his build is...

Re: ***SOUTHERN CHECK-IN/MEMEBERS LIST*** Re: ***SOUTHERN CHECK-IN/MEMEBERS LIST*** Just checking in from Houston. My wife got (Red) 92#2468 for mother's day and should be on the board soon as well..... to see us "sizing up our peckers".

Looking for the LMC (or other than dealer) part number for the AC refrigerant hose assembly that bolts to the compressor. I got the wrong one on first guess and CS is no help at all.

Re: oil cooler orings I can save you a headache. Get em from the dealer. They're usually in stock and cheap (cents).

We're expecting a new addition to the family in the next few days (another 92 TY). The whole intent is to have "matching" his and hers trucks. Any ideas for his and hers plates? I never really gave it much thought considering the general distaste for the one I already have. I know there have...

I noticed traces of oil (of some sort) tracking along the front edge of the belt and pulleys. The steering box had residue on it as well. I cleaned it up, ran it for 15 minutes and let it sit for a week. Rechecked and found oil pooling up on the inside of the crank pulley. Never seen that...

The engine bay is gloss black. I painted it while the motor was out and the truck was blue. Decided to leave it that way to make a nice contrast with the white exterior and the chrome in the engine bay. I'll take pics after the cladding is put on. Still have a couple of pieces on order. I'm not...

White/metalic gunmetal gray minus roof rack.

I have the GM part numbers. How quick does GMPD ship? Painted the truck this weekend and need em pretty quick.

How bad to you need it and how much did you pay? If you arent "dead in the water", send it back out of principle. Your supplier should have done a better job of packaging their product. As for the internal damage, there isnt much to screw up. Most everything is pretty solid except for the...

I'm replacing my side glass and windshield seal strips in conjunction with a paint job this month. I was able to find the parts through the local dealer but were a bit pricy. Dealer wanted about $66 for the sides and $25 for the windshield. I found the side seals on GMpartsdirect for about half...

I'm a generator field service technician. If it burns fossil fuel and makes electricity, I'm on it. Doing my part for the Texas grid (yes. we have our own) and for those afar in need with deep pockets (ie northeast US last year). I specialize primarily in emergency standy systems with automatic...
