    Got a rattle in my Burb....

I removed the heat shield as I have no cat anymore... still got the rattle. It happens under light...

    wheel spacers

    I have 2" spacers on my 1999 Sub K2500. No problems after 60,000...a few others on here have them as well. The Sub drives much better with them especially if the road has grooves from heavy vehicles..

    6.5 longblock recomendations

    My neighbor needs a 6.5 for his 1997 or 1998 k1500. Any longblock or drop in recomendations? I am in Canada but have a US address to ship it to. His existing engine has 380,000km or so. Should be ok for a core as it is still running. Thanks

    A/C question?

    Unfortunately all I have. System had higher than reccomended pressure on the cheapo guage...but it was working a bit. It is unseasonably hot where I was working (Seattle 105`) and the a/c just quit today. Compressor not running, checked pressure again with the cheapo and it was too low. Added...

    6.5 gets thumbs up from Cummins

    My 95 k1500 6.5 was faster than my 99 burb even though S versus F...the extra hp and torque are no match for the reduced weight of the 1500. Both had 4" exhaust but 1500 had no gauges. I find myself backing off the throttle more in my burb as it approaches 1200f quite easily.
