    6.2 vs 6.5

    Thanks to all for your input. Leroy, I'd love to buy your Burb, but the longer I think about it, the more I'm convinced I need to stick with 4WD. Thanks again for all the offers of help. I'll keep you posted as the process moves forward.

    6.2 vs 6.5

    So, fellow Northerners, you guys have any experience with snow tires, studded or not? I've never owned a RWD vehicle before; always FWD or 4x4. I've always had all-season tires because of that. It's not so much the snow I'm worried about. Because they don't plow, the snow packs and freezes...

    6.2 vs 6.5

    Yours is the one 2WD I'd consider. That'd be like buying Willie Nelson's guitar or John Wayne's horse. I figured you'd already sold it by now. You first listed it on here quite a while ago. The problem I have is they don't plow the road I live on. Last winter, there were a couple times we...

    I'll keep that in mind and let you know. Thank you, Sir.

    6.2 vs 6.5

    Sorry for the confusion. I'm not planning a conversion. I'm planning on going with a different vehicle completely. I don't have the know-how/space/tools for a conversion.

    6.2 vs 6.5

    If I could fit a bus in my driveway, I'd be all over it. I have about 6 inches on each side of my car to spare with the Suburban I currently have. Can't do dually. I saw that "military" one on the deal-finder thread. I really like the look of it. Maybe it'll still be there come Jan/Feb...

    6.2 vs 6.5

    Well, I'm about 6 months into owning a 2001 Burb with a 5.3 in it. Per WarWagon's prediction, it's not doing it for me. I miss the noise, smell and power. Plus, this thing started breaking about a month after I bought it. Needs some serious dollars put into it, and I just wanna get back to...

    S&B AIRBOX COWL INDUCTION

    Is there not a concern about water when it rains or snows?

    Too much fuel pressure?

    I think this is why it's recommended to put your fuel pressure sender after the FFM.

    6.5 trivia quiz

    Wonder what it is now. Gotta be 2-5. Only drove through LA once in 2005, and I hated every minute of it. :mad2:

    Which gauge to get?

    You could put another fuel pressure gauge in for pre or post FFM (depending on where your current one is) so you could compare the two. Maybe give you an idea of when you need to change the fuel filter.

    RAM question

    Any chance you have some standard DDR3 lying around? I'm willing to bet $1 it works. In the picture you posted, there are 48 pins to the left of the notch. Standard DDR3 has 48 pins to the left of the notch. As long as it physically fits in the slot, you won't hurt anything. It'll just beep...

    RAM question

    The RAM that goes into the slots on your motherboard is not GDDR3. I'm guessing that what you're reading is something like "1GDDR3-1333". The 1G is to indicate it's a 1 GB stick. Like you found, GDDR is only used on graphics cards. What you have on your mobo is DDR3 1333. You can...

    Glowplugs...So I'm Screwed Aren't I?

    Sweet! I'm glad there's a happy end to the story. You were sure to use some Lock-Tite on the new GP, right? ;)

    Bigger a/c condenser

    Cool. Didn't check out the link like I should have. That's pretty awesome.

    Bigger a/c condenser

    Wow. That's huge! Is that gonna make the compressor have to work harder? And where's your oil cooler gonna go?

    The End of an Era

    I went to look at the Yukon XL. The "spot of rust" ended up being about 2" wide, the entire length of the passenger door. There was another spot in the middle of a dent on the rear passenger side door, and the fender was dented with a spot of rust on it. Looks like somebody either sideswiped...

    Alberta boys know camping!

    That looks cool, but it also looks like it'll end up on its side with little provocation.

    The End of an Era

    Thanks, Guys. Good list. Ferm, where should I look if were trying to find the cylinder head crack leaking coolant. Would it be visible outside the engine?
