    Yes, they will interchange.

    4L80 Not shifiting out of 1st - intermittent and dash lights flicker before it does

    Ignition switches can also cause intermittent issues in them.

    5 to 6 lug conversion

    A 0 offset with a 7" rim iirc is stock on 2 wheel drives. The c2500 rear maintains the same track width as the stock 5 lug 2 wheel drive rear axle. All 4x4 wheels have offset as GM did this to reduce loading on the hub bearings. For the obs 2 wheel drive, they ran the 0 offset so there was...

    Condenser

    Here's 1 setup that will work, but in this configuration I lose the pressure port that 95's used for the high pressure activated switch that forces the system to inside air when the high side hits 370. I can use a short piece of hose to close couple them, and it will be a REAL close match for...

    Short shaft to long shaft 4l60e

    In 96 V6's went to the 2 piece case, and by mid year 97 they all had went to the 2 piece case. The 4 vs 6 bolt extension housing was simply a change when they changed cases. ALL 4l60e's from 93+ list the same exact output shaft for 2 wheel drive trucks. You cannot go by the length of the...

    Short shaft to long shaft 4l60e

    The 4l60e only came in one length, it's not like the old th-400. Can you post pics of the differences?

    Condenser

    Recently my compressor grenaded in the Burb, so I ordered all new parts to go back in. I ordered an APDI/PRO 7014544 condenser because I have one in my Tahoe and it's the largest drop in parallel flow condenser available for these trucks, when I opened the box, a Spectra 7-4721 was inside the...

    Diff between 1995 GMC BURB 1500 5.7 6 lug and a 1995 GMC BURB 2500 5.7 6 lug

    FYI, GM never built a 6 lug 2500 BURB. All 2500 BURBS were 8 lug, 1500 diesel BURBS were also 8 lug, but all 6 lug Burbs are 1500's. So find out what it is 1st. Only pickups were available in 2500 with 6 lugs.

    Yes, I am waiting, but I have a feeling I already know who you are.

    To low of a stall converter will turn it into a dog trying to accelerate off the line.

    Late to Early 4L80E

    If it is a 97 trans, it will work, just has 1 less bellhousing bolt at the very top. The converter is a different story. The 6.0l uses a fairly loose converter, a good bit looser than any 97 4l80e used. You would also have to keep in mind to order parts for a 97 if you need trans parts as there...

    4L80E Tranny - no over drive, no slipping, no codes everything else drives fine

    I believe you mean AFL(actuator feed limit) valve. It controls the pressure that the valve body uses to control the trans and lubes the rear bushing in 97+ units. It will cause all kinds of issues, not just loss of OD. Most builders prefer the Transgo valve as it is a larger valve that...

    6.5 non turbo diesel 4L80E chevy p30 StepVan

    Need to know if it's a DB2 mechanical injection pump or the ds4 electronic pump. Each system is considerably different. And being a P30 chassis in 96, it may be the hybrid data coms that were used in a select few 96's that require a tech2 scanner.

    You need the tech2 to read 246 codes.

    Valve train noise with first DIY tune installed.

    60G glow plugs run about 10-12 Seconds of glow time for an average cold start iirc. I know a 60g glow plug is just starting to get good and hot in about the same amount of time as it takes for a 9g glow plug to explode. So glow times changed considerably in newer trucks with the 60g glow plugs...

    Is There Such a Thing As Too Much Cetane ?

    Extra cetane won't hurt anything. Cetane is the rating of how quickly a fuel ignites. Higher cetane means faster ignition, lower cetane equals slower ignition. Unlike in a gas engine, the faster ignition isn't a problem since fuel is directly injected into the cylinder at the time combustion is...

    Valve train noise with first DIY tune installed.

    Put a 100% stock tune in it and see if the noise goes away, if it does, you have a tuning issue, if it remains, then look at the engine. When doing diy tuning, go in SMALL increments, and extra noises are BAD! How much have you changed your timing? Does your .xdf have temp offsets available in it?

    Need EFI live explained

    $0502 is set because not all of your autocal software is up to date. You probably downloaded newer software than the autocal was last used with and haven't updated all of the autocal files.

    Need EFI live explained

    P0700 can be bad. You need to scan the TCM specifically for codes to see why it requested the mil. You will need to read out the tune that is in it currently, then you can check the operating system number for starters, if it ends in a 05 it is an efilive dsp5 tune file. Most of the checking...
