    Boost increase

    I installed an adjustable waste gate and have it set for 30PSI and it will actually hit 34PSI peak. I am still hitting 5-7PSI cruising depending on grade.

    47RE to NV4500

    I would suggest that if you are seriously going to do this, that you get your hands on a parts vehicle. You will need Cross member, drive shaft, Clutch kit and master, flywheel, lines, pedal etc. These items along with some smaller items are much easier to grab off a Donner then to try and find...

    Custom Jumper Cables Delux

    Nice I have a good set of cables that I plan on using the same set up that many of the tow trucks use so I can go from the front or rear. Then I can power the winch on the trailer and jump start the vehicle in front or behind me or even one on my trailer if needed. I did this in my off road...

    2100 RPM Redline

    Are you getting full travel out of the throttle? Have someone cycle the pedal with the truck off and get under the hood and see if it has any travel left past where the pedal will take it.

    TQ Lock Up problems

    I engage mine at about 80K if I do it in second, it flashes through the gears into OD anyway. Once I engage the switch, it is a totally different truck and will do the same thing 80-120 in no time. The one thing I love about it is with my trailer and Zuk on with it in OD and locked, it does not...

    Need help, quick!

    I hope it holds up for you, but keep an eye on it. I repaired a fuel cell with epoxy and it lasted a short time before the gas ate the seal and it was finished.

    Need help, quick!

    I Hate to be the bad guy, but it sounds like you are replacing a Sending unit. I would suggest getting a hold of a Rad/Gas Tank shop and see what they can do. I know we have sent some of the more expensive Sending units out to be repaired, but it is not always possible.

    PSM Cold Air Intake

    Has anyone ever used this system? I have been looking at doing something similar when I came across this. Just wondering if anyone on here has any experience with it or doing something similar? My machine sucks the reminder valve into the red zone all the time when I am on it, even with a new...

    Lift Pump vs Electric

    The adjustments have been made to the VE and that is why I think I have lift pump issues, I am not getting much if any black smoke and have not gained much at all in power. I thought about the P pump swap, but the guy wants way too much for it and I am not looking to make that much power. As for...

    Lift Pump vs Electric

    First let me say this again, I did not do this engine swap. The previous owner thought he was doing a good thing by putting a lower mileage motor into his truck. What he did not know was that the mechanic went and swapped a 93 engine without changing over the P pump from the original. The lift...

    Lift Pump vs Electric

    I am very seriously thinking about getting rid of the Mechanical lift pump and replacing it with an electric as I think that the current lift may be causing some of my Fuel issues. Part of the issue I am up against is, the truck is a 95 with the motor from a 93. The Mechanic that did the swap...

    8.3L Injectors

    I have a buddy that is a Diesel Mechanic and he has some Injectors out of an 8.3L that are good. He was saying we should install them in my 95. My question is, since my motor is actually out of a 93, will they work and with the Rotary pump feeding them, would I see a benefit from them?

    Lowering a 4wd 2500HD?

    My bad. Really depending on how low he wants to go, he could just remove the block in the back. If he went SUA, he would be going down about 7-8" total.

    Lowering a 4wd 2500HD?

    Front is coiled, would require a shorter spring and maybe some mods to the upper and lower arms.

    TQ Lock Up problems

    I grabbed a Toggle switch today and did a test. Sure enough the thing works like a char. The only thing I am wondering is why it tries to get into 4th so quickly, it is not holding the gears long enough to take advantage of the Lock up in anything but 4th. Could the kick down cable be an issue...

    TQ Lock Up problems

    My unit had the Orange with black chaser with no power getting to the tranny, I fixed that and it has not given me back Lock up, but I am getting OD. I can only assume then that the PCM is not doing its job of grounding the Lock up. What are the chances that I am getting Lock up in third and not...

    TQ Lock Up problems

    I have a rebuilt trans in my 1995 and I have had nothing but issues with the lock up on the Torque converter. The people that originally had this thing had butchered some of the wiring, I replaced the Orange with black chaser from the main plug down to the OD plug on the transmission as I was...

    Lowering a 4wd 2500HD?

    Anything can be done, it depends on what you are willing to give up to do it. Are you looking to lower it for Fuel economy, easier to get in, looks? The rear has a block in it that could be removed and the front springs could be replaced with shorter springs, but keep in mind that like most of...

    Not sure what I would be buying, but if you have a site, I will check it out!

    Tire question....

    Not sure there, but up here the dealers have never refused anyone I know that has asked to have it done. I would approach another dealer.
