    Rock Auto - No Good Deed Goes Unpunished

    I also had some shipping damaged cv halfshafts from rock auto, the boot on one of them had several damages in it that almost look like they had been cut open on opening the box or something. I ended up installing the old one, and since I'm in Europe I never bothered with shipping things back. I...

    Which Chip??

    True, and yes all that other stuff is piling up in kojos favour and he is in a neighbouring country also unlike Heath across the ocean. Bying from walkingj I see no way I'm able to not throw in an ATT if I'm bying a chip from him.. Decisions suck, I've been on the fence so long I'm starting to...

    New toy, geting her next week

    I have to agree, what a shame it would be to turn that beauty into a SRW.. Guess I'm a big butts and wide fenders kind of guy! ;)

    Which Chip??

    I'm leaning towards a heath chip myself after TD's comments on how the kojo tune has a tendency towards driving the egt's a bit high..

    Front Shocks

    Forgot about this thread ofcourse, I bet those shocks have some miles on them by now...

    Front Shocks

    If you have the same chilton book I do it should be in there, I just did them a few weeks ago. IIRC you're not far off with those 90NM I can check when I get home later but then they're probably done right?

    no start

    Guess I'm not the only one to think of stray electrons on this one.. ;)

    no start

    Any chance of this being a bad ground issue? I'm only putting this out there as the dim lights in the dash sounds like some kind of electrical gremlins to me..

    ATT and KOJO tune for my 97

    Sounds like I might end up drivers license challenged when I finally give in and make that order that has been on hold in my mind for an eternity. You say it really shines at 70+mph but I actually rarely see that kinds of speed, most of my time is spent at sub 50mph really. How is it at those...

    Balljoints, 94 K1500

    I will probably have a go at it again tomorrow, but I guess it's possible that my 97 truck is different enough to be a whole other story from your 94 Blazer(in a bad way). I've pulled the halfshaft, upper arm, sway bar link, knuckle, the shock and front bolt, but the snag is the mounting flange...

    Balljoints, 94 K1500

    I'm in the middle of doing this myself, but getting that rear lower control arm bolt out seems like a bigtime PITA. My halfshaft is out, I'm replacing that one also. But it seems I have to move the whole front diff to get that bolt out?? :mad2: If that is the case I think those lower...

    Sequential turbos... do-able?

    Seems german engineers have also had this thought. VW Tsi Twincharger

    ATT for christmas

    When I get myself around to actually getting one I will try to get it on tape!

    Sequential turbos... do-able?

    Glad to see I'm not the only one having the supercharger/turbo combo idea, maybe it's not all that far fetched anyway. I guess it's all in the numbers if one takes a little time to look at it. I don't know how much airflow is needed at a certain desired power rating at a given rpm. Where the...

    ATT for christmas

    I have the diamondeye exhaust and the straight through muffler that came with it. I wouldn't mind it getting a little bit louder then what it is, but I wonder if the ATT might make it too loud. Wouldn't be all that great if the horses freaked out in the trailer from the noise when pulling...

    Sequential turbos... do-able?

    I have an 84 opel that was meant to be a little more mileage friendly everyday drive then the 2500 truck. It hasn't been on the road since the hazardous trip from where I bought it with only the handbrake operational, as it was a bit more work then expected. Would love to have a tuned modern...

    Sequential turbos... do-able?

    I have no factual information to contribute to this discussion, but my mind loves to play around with overcomplicated things like this. Its ramblings also included an idea about a small supercharger for the low end with a turbo for the top end. Probably a totally moronic idea if you start to...
