    muffler

    i have had mine for a couple of weeks now. its not that loud. which is perfect. highway speeds arent that bad either. seems to do a little better of fuel and torque. i would suggest it to anyone wanting or needing something different.

    muffler

    i have a 1997 tahoe 2wd. 4 door. stock everything (exhaust wise) i have had to weld my muffler back a few times now. rusting out at a seam. my question is what would be the best thing to do. go with a flow master that works the same way 2x 2.25 into the muffler and one going out. or do two...

    back fire

    its through the intake. i could have sworn it was the crank shaft position sensor. how do i check if its the dist cap? when it dose backfire it runs rough for just a second then goes away. it may not do it again for awhile. never sets off the service engine light and never has a stored code.

    5.7 long block or short block?

    Yeh that would be cool of I had the cash laying around. I think a engine would better suit my needs and I could build it slowly

    5.7 long block or short block?

    So it would be best not to go with the 5.7 again? Sorry I don't get what your saying . All I want to do is keep it emission legal . It's my dd. last motor I built was for my 1979 Camaro no emissions then

    5.7 long block or short block?
