That sounds good will.I hadn’t thought of that👍

If my engines start to leak from those adapters and cause grief I’ll just go with the straight up and down filter.Like was stated earlier it’s less leakage points to worry about in the long run.

You’d need to find that threaded adapter piece that threads into the block.Then you’ll be good to go.The older Chevy 350 engines used the same oil filter.

I have seen these trucks with the oil filter adapter removed altogether and just went with a straight up and down filter like what’s found on 2wd gmt400 trucks.A guy my father knows has this sort of thing done on his gmt400 truck with a 305 TBI engine.His is also a K1500.

Today I took apart the front suspension on the 96 Chevy.And I have to say without these extractor sockets I would have never got those wheel bearing bolts out.They were in very bad shape.I have new dorman replacements going in when I reassemble everything.This socket set is worth its weight in gold.

A few days ago I picked up a few front end parts from Amazon for my 96 Chevy truck with the 6.5 goodwrench.Basically it’s a idler arm,idler bracket ,pitman,all tie rods and stabilizer links.I have new Delphi ball joints and two kugel brand wheel bearings.All the front end parts have grease...

Yesterday I took my first voyage in my 96 gmc truck with the 6.2/DS4 since using the ford diesel Sparta brand lift pump and diesel rx fuel pressure regulator.I put maybe 60-70 kilometres on the truck and the fuel pressure was perfect under load.The Sparta pump puts out 43psi so that’s the reason...

Looking good Big T👍

I usually slit some heater hose and put it on those cooler lines and zip tie them afterwards just to be sure nothing chafes through.I havent had any issue doing it that way.

Good job on the timing belt replacement 👍

I received a message from glagulator who has the piece I need.Thank you.

Hi guys.Just wondering if anyone here has this particular piece they’d like to sell.Its for the flat panel airbox from 92-96 that snaps into the fender.I can pay with PayPal.Many thanks.

Not a problem.Glad to help out anyway possible.You’ll definitely like those arp bolts the minute you attempt to install them.They fit quite snug going up into the starter housing.I put antiseize on them just to make things a little easier.

I looked into getting this new container to work and the only way I can get it to work is if I ditch the K47 and use a basic silicone 90 degree elbow with cone shaped air filter.Even the 92-96 flat panel air filter setup doesn’t give me the clearance I need. Also a different wiring connector...

Absolutely.I hope to get started on this in a day or so.The new reservoir I purchased from eBay fits 2001 model trucks.

I have a new coolant reservoir from eBay for a newer gm truck that I’ll try to retrofit into my 96 gmc truck with the 6.2.It seems the original is hard to find and not very cheap either if I did find one.So several years ago I bought a new OEM reservoir for this truck back in 2014 but you can’t...

I’ll definitely have to keep this in mind.I have new Bosch 80034 that I bought from eBay a few years ago.Says made in France on the boxes.Hopefully they are the real deal.

The part number from arp for the M10 bolts is 430-3511.They fit perfectly.

They are M10 and fit much more snug going up into the starter housing.The previous bolts were new GM with washers.I just wanted to upgrade and use something better.

They were much tighter fitting going up into the 6.5 starter housing vs the gm bolts.Just felt like a better set of bolts all around.I had the gm starter bolts break off in my 5.7 diesel constantly and after switching to arp starter bolts many years ago I never had a starter bolt failure after...
