    Condenser

    Recently my compressor grenaded in the Burb, so I ordered all new parts to go back in. I ordered an APDI/PRO 7014544 condenser because I have one in my Tahoe and it's the largest drop in parallel flow condenser available for these trucks, when I opened the box, a Spectra 7-4721 was inside the...

    Got a new desktop

    Decided to get a new computer. I need more than what my tablet can do and I want to save my laptop for strictly tuning purposes. Did ALOT of searching and decided on the MINISFORUM X400, 16gb ram, 512gb ssd hard drive, and an AMD Ryzen 7 4750g 3.6ghz(overclocked to 4.4ghz) processor. I wanted...

    1996 Burb

    Seen this cruising CL. Somebody put a BUNCH of money into this, but says it's using coolant. May be worth it to somebody for just the parts on it. https://sarasota.craigslist.org/cto/d/north-port-1996-chevrolet-k2500/6983183982.html

    Updated tsb proportioning valve

    If anybody is needing or thinking about getting one of the updated combination/proportioning valves, then now is the time to get one. I've spent the last 4 weeks looking for one and finally found a couple. GM has discontinued these(or at least the 95+ version), and there's only a handful left in...

    High side valve & plug for r134 charge port

    For those that haven't seen, Dorman has 2 great products to deal with the plague that is the GM high side connector on many of their r134 equipped systems(as well as some Chrysler and Ford's). As pretty much anybody with a vehicle equipped with these devil made items knows, it's a rubber stopper...

    SAC00 hopefully the LB7's savior

    Anybody who owns an LB7 knows about the injectors reputation. Many may have heard about the SAC nozzles that many have been switching to with excellent results. Until now though the smallest size you could get was 45 overs which required a retune, well not anymore. S&S in the next couple of...

    99 TAHOE 2X4 gasser

    And so it begins. Haven't even tagged it yet, but the mods have started. 1st up is the 0411 PCM swap so I can tune it for mod #3. Working on repinning the plugs today(courtesy of lextech's spreadsheet) and adding the nsbu wires. Next mod will most likely be my ESCALADE cluster(120 mph speedo...

    99 2 door Tahoe

    Picked up a new project/driver. The Burb needs quite a bit of work, so to keep a daily driver, I picked up a 99 2 door 2 wheel drive gas tahoe. I've wanted one of these for quite awhile now, its small/short enough and low enough the wife can hopefully drive it comfortably, and should make for a...

    CKO TECH 2

    I've been on the fence for awhile, but I seen one of the clone Tech 2's with Candi module for $225+ shipping(came out to just under $268 after shipping and handling/customs). It came with a clone/chinese tech 2, data cable, 12 pin obd1, 16 pin obd2, a couple of other plugs for Saturn and I...

    Mobil oil sale

    Mobil is doing an oil sale through the end of the year. $7 off per gallon of mobil delvac 15w40 or $10 off per gallon of 5w40 turbo diesel synthetic. The catch is it is only at certain retailers(pretty much the big parts chain stores), but rural king is one of them and has 15w40 delvac for...

    Rotella T5 & T6 rebate

    Rotella is doing a $7 a gallon rebate on all T5 & T6 diesel oils. https://rotella.shell.com/coupons-rebates-and-sweepstakes/save-5-per-gallon-back-by-mail.html#iframe=L0RJWS9OYXRpb25hbDE4L3N0b3JlbG9jYXRvci5jZm0=

    B100, I-6 Diesels, etc

    I'm thinking more Mercedes since they made the ever famous inline 6 om606 3.0l diesel(but it was idi).

    96 2 door tahoe 6.5l for $1K

    Somebody needs to save this one. If I wasn't going through so much right now, I would go and get it. https://orlando.craigslist.org/cto/d/96-tahoe-2-dr-65-turbo-diesel/6650201596.html

    3.9l cummins with allison 1000

    Found this cruisin craigslist. The sae bellhousing, flywheel, starter, and trans is worth this since it could bolt right up to a 5.9l just as easily as a 3.9l. Or drop this in a 2500 truck, get 25+ mpg, and still tow 10K. Get a decent twin turbo setup and there's no reason you can't hit...

    Duramax 01-05 Fluidampr

    I'm looking to do the balancer on my burb here in the next couple of weeks, so I figured I'd start by seeing if you could get me one. Wasn't sure since I know you deal in the 6.2/6.5, and didn't know if they would jack the price up on a one off order. They list it as 890101 on there diesel...

    History of the DURAMAX design

    This is from another site(duramaxdiesels), but it is VERY interesting reading describing how GM had the DURAMAX engine designed in partnership with ISUZU in just 90 days. In 1996, as General Motors was finalizing plans for its next generation of full-size trucks (code named GMT800), the company...

    DO NOT UPDATE YOUR SOFTWARE!

    Just throwing this out there. Up until 2 weeks ago EFILIVE had taken the stance that they would not take away what we already had, they just would not introduce anything new for US based customers(we already had LMM and deletes for everything up through the LMM, just no LML for US based tuners)...

    Raspberry pi3

    Anybody out there messing around with one of these? Looking for all the stuff they can do. I just picked one up last week because I got tured of waiting for a nes classic(I grew up in the 80's and the nintendo was king then. Guess you could say I'm a retro gamer), and wanted to be able to play...

    SON OF A BI#*$!

    Guess I'll post up my luck so we can have a duramax problem post around here. I've picked up a slight vibration in my BURB just off idle. I noticed it when I bumped my idle speed back up to 680 from 600 trying to make the A/C work better in traffic. When I dropped the idle speed back down, I...

    94 BURB with db2 swap

    Seen this one on my local craigslist. It's a 94 2 wheel drive with a db2 conversion. Looks like somebody was still in the process of finishing it. The guy selling it has no knowledge of diesels. Throwing it out there. http://tampa.craigslist.org/pnl/cto/5844942554.html
