My current mods are 1) Stickers=50hp 2) Porter stock truck manifold and Tb by Chuy454 3) Corvette Servo 4) mail in tune from Blackbear performance. So what do you recommend to add some more
    Power? Would a ported nnbs or TB intake be better than what I got?

    Wonder if just taking the front end off would make it easier? Like the grill, radiator, fans, and cross bar deal? You could probably just pull motor and tran at the same time and be able to clean it all if ya wanted, and onbthe headers maybe take plastic out of wheel well an take tire off like you do changing spark plugs? . Idk though?

    • @obfuscated3090
      @obfuscated3090 ปีที่แล้ว

      It takes little time to pull those front ends. I've done it several times harvesting salvage yard LS. An angle head impact like the Harbor Freight (the small head is why I leave my Milwaukee at home), and a more powerful conventional impact make short work of the job. BTW I always anti-seize body hardware before reinstalling. Pulling the fenders doesn't take long and is well worth it.

      I'd remove the broken bolts while the engine is out because if any more snap that will be zero fun to repair with the engine installed. I ALWAYS use quality (Jet Lube copper or any nickel high temp) anti-seize on every exhaust fastener. I've removed manifolds I installed thirty years ago on other engines with zero problem. I don't reuse exhaust manifold bolts either.

There are varius ways to get that done and some Ebay sellers offer flashed computers cheap.. The BCMs on those trucks and anti-theft system in general are famous for sucking (and the reason I scored my 2000 K1500 cheap!).
