    Chinese 6.5 block

    I’d take a gamble on a Chinese block too if I had no choice.It looks like a nice casting.Like Will said not everything made in China is bad.I’ve heard of some guys using those blocks in the past.If the rotating assembly is balanced I feel you won’t have a single issue.

    New Bosch India 6.5 turbo injectors

    They look genuine to me anyway.I’ll definitely use them in the near future.All the injectors are sold out now anyway.Everything made now or a few years back isn’t always counterfeit.There are still good genuine sets available out there.

    This evening on eBay I purchased a new daytime running light module for my 96 Chevy truck.Total cost was $96 delivered.I bought the same module for my 96 gmc truck last year and the new replacement made the daytime running lights function again for the first time in years.

    What did you do with your GMT400 today...or yesterday....

    What did you do with your GMT400 today...or yesterday....

    This evening I decided to give these Volkswagen brake shields a go and mount them to my 96 Chevy truck.I’m pretty sure I can make these work by drilling and tapping three holes in the steering knuckle.It may need a slight trim here and there but I don’t mind doing that.These are from Amazon and...
