I want to say that the year break on that was later 80's like maybe 88 or 89 .... they started having the same oil pan (think it goes with the body style change....) But AK is correct that there is a year where they are the same. I went through all of this when I did the 6.2 swap into my tahoe...

Oil pan is different. I don't think it would fit a 4x4 truck but might work in a 2x4. (can't swap the pan out due to the different rear main seal AK talked about.....)

Guess I am on the fence about getting rid of the sock........ I got rid of mine a while back, then a couple years back I started having issues with the truck stalling randomly and refusing to restart. I found that if I unscrewed the prefilter I had installed it would suck air in to relieve a...

Thank you!!

Also remember that there is an accumulator in the system. So if you are testing the theory by just shutting off the engine, the accumulator will keep pressure on the boost system for several pedal applications. So pump the pedal a couple of times real quick and then push it in to try to...

I am also using the US Shift Quick 4......... I don't think I have had as good success as n8in8or, but it has lasted me 4-5 years now and about 40,000. I have struggled getting it set up perfect and still have a few quirks that bug me, but I would be willing to take most of the blame on that for...

So my plan.... unless someone points out some reason that I have not though of as to why it won't work (or is a bad idea) .... is to t the fuel line coming out of my prefilter and put two lift pumps in parallel. I will probably throw in another relay so that they each have their own power...

Okay. Thanks for the input..... will work on getting that moved over.....

So if I remember correctly (it has been probably 10 years since I did it....) but I am pretty sure the sock in the tank is gone..... I am using Leroy's pre-filter setup with a Walbro pump (have replaced the Walbro pump 3-4 times.... can't remember for sure (last fall was the most recent time). I...

Thanks for the input........ sort of along these lines I have another issue to sort out. About twice a year this will happen (happened yesterday)... Will be driving along and the truck will die.... look over and the fuel pressure gauge is on 0. I have Leroy's LP with pre-filter set up.... I...

So back in the day, Walbro pumps seemed to be thought the "best" .... but they seem to have lost their reputation. That is what I am currently running but have had them go out on me a couple times so am considering something else.... I am rather hesitant to shell out the $500 or so that it would...

Looks great! Where did you find the stickers and badges?

I have a radiator that is seeping there as well. Not bad enough to make me do anything about it...... yet............... Glad to hear that Champion will warranty it.

When I did mine, I started in the middle and did not spray the whole thing at one time. I laid the cloth out, then folded half of it back - and then worked my way out. That headliner adhesive from O’Reilley is pretty good stuff. I also used it to glue some aftermarket seat covers down to my...

I think this was the website I used. https://harristuning.com/Tbi/vssb-drac-calibration/V

You can also google GM VSSB and there are websites out there that will walk you through the steps of modifying the vssb that you have...... do you want to spend time or money....... (you have to be comfortable soldering on a circuit board to do this) For my tahoe, I went cheap and did the...

I'll try to get some pictures of it.... might take a while though.

I helped a friend pull what looks like the early Ford IDI diesel engine out of a 1978 motor home. But from what I saw International started making those in 1983? Anyone know any more of the history of these engines and if they have a good reputation or not? Any better than the 6.5 / 6.2?

Crawled around under the Tahoe to see what is squeaking...... Looks like I need A arm bushings and will do the ball joints while I am at it.... I am looking at the MOOG vs MEVOTECH vs PROFORGED on RockAuto for the ball joints..... And was eyeing the Energy Suspension Polyurethane bushings...

Thanks for all the ideas. I have previously installed a pre lift pump filter, and removed the in tank sock. Also have a pressure gauge after the engine filter, but I will have to look into adding something to indicate a plugged lift pump filter. It seems though that the pickup tube in the tank...
