    Will a TPI intake fit without cutting

    Yes, torque. I read somewhere that the TPI had long intake runners that made alot of torque at low rpm. Article said it would have been the perfect truck engine with broad torque range. Anyway, not sure how it compares to stock LS. I think I've changed my mind regardless of fit. Any change will...

    Will a TPI intake fit without cutting

    I've had a Duramax in a 2500 Chevrolet. Built it up till I blew the head gaskets and spun the Allison transmission in it. I built it all back and it was a tough, super fast truck but a Duramax Allison combo puts me in a repair category I would not like to be in. Given my abilities and local...

    Delco 24v alternator bracket modification

    Update on the alternator conversion. I started modifying the factory aluminum 60 amp bracket. As mentioned earlier when modifying I had to drill and tap a mounting point for the pivoting side of the alternator. I drilled the hole close but not in the correct location. I could not find a 60 amp...

    Delco 24v alternator bracket modification

    Yes I ground down the bracket. The idea worked perfectly my execution was another story. You have to grind both sides. I didn't grind the face of the bracket far enough to get proper belt alignment. It could be removed and corrected with more grinding. I had to drill one mounting hole for pivot...

    Delco 24v alternator bracket modification

    Here's how I did mine last year. I didn't get the holes drilled properly and had wrong offset. I ran it anyway. The alternator started overcharging. I have a replacement Delco and original generator. I'm going to buy another alternator bracket and get it correct the 2nd time.

    Spring replacement, leveling springs

    My memory is foggy on that. Jack your truck from front and back to your desired ride height. Measure the distance between perches. The springs are around 500lbs per inch of compression. If you can weigh your front and rear(some truck stops have scales). You can do the math from there. They are...

    Spring replacement, leveling springs

    I ordered 4 springs all the same. I cut one coil from rear. Can't remember what I did on front. I do know i tried to put rears in without cutting. It raised the back off ground when trying to jack a arm up. I since have added a spare ture carrier and the rear sits a little lower than front. I...
