  1. i heard that Chevy quit the production of the duramax diesel and have no intentions of having a diesel motor available anymore...
  2. i watched a how to video on you tube and it seems pretty easy im just worried about the them coming out or breaking b/c of the heat that the turbo will generate... what do u think
  3. im not sure there is enough treads left to just tap it..
  4. I have a 67mm turbo that i had taken apart well somehow i managed to strip out the treads on the turbo housing when i separated it from the cartridge can this be fixed or do i need new housings????
  5. i have 4 8"w7s under my back seat with some plexyglass and a PS2 ill post some pics within the next couple days..
  6. here in Fl. they cant ask u to remove them... which is y i would be pissed and make a scene... but if thats the way the law reads in N.C. than i would for sure remove them on the spot if i had to... I would be mad and try and talk my way out of it but i would do it b/c i cant beat that in court if its written in the law... do people still have those stupid washer lights.. i figured they all would have burned out or the car down by now....LOL oh yea its a good thing i dont have and never will have the blue anything on my red and black truck...
  7. i think i would cut open the oil filter and make sure its not full of metal first... i had a similar problem and now I'm neck high in my new motor... i thought it was just an oil pump also but 6k later i get a new motor...
  8. I agree with u in the fact that my little blue lights might lead to someones full on strobe kit and them playing cop... And i agree with u in the fact that they are a nono and shouldn't be on anything but a cop car for cops only... Please explain to me y i shouldn't have them... if im driving with them on yes i deserve a ticket but go to jail over some lights is dumb... And unless i have them flashing or im meging traffic or if im doing something stupid with them than yes i should go to jail b/c i would be impersonating a cop... but not just driving... explain to me the law that says a cop has the right to make someone uninstall something on a vehicle or explain the law that gives u the right to impound a vehicle b/c they didn't uninstall something... If i'm not impersonating a cop you cant charge me with that and if you do, you would be lieing and i would have been wrongly arrested and that is when i would be sueing... Again i say this could have all been avoided if i had just gotten a ticket and/ or a firm talking to... i agree with the you statement "Suing really pisses me off, every dope dealer on the corner and criminal in your back yard say the same thing. Just FYI, no matter how mundane the stop....is the possibility to prevent a potential crime. Do you realize that nearly every serial killer throughout history has been apprehended off a traffic violation?" and i think we as a nation is in the mess that we are b/c of the dumbass and there need for attorneys and lawsuits... if people would just talk out the issue we would be sitting an a much better nation... I'm not that guy that will start the sueing argument over everything but i will if i feel like the system or even a part (officer with a hardon) of the system is taking advance of there authority. IM NOT SAYING ITS YOU OR THAT YOU DO... but i have encountered my share of officers most of the time its rookies that have attitudes and i just request a sergeant and the issue gets resolved.
  9. I hate to say it but that truck is sweet... I would dd that thing...
  10. I will definitely give an officer the respect that he deserves until i felt like i was being disrespected myself... For a cop to tell me i have to uninstall something right in front of him is disrespectful I'm not taking anything off my truck on the side of the road for any cop... I would rather go to jail and be out in a couple hours and sue the crap out of the department... A warning/ ticket and a good talking to would be enough for me to not do it again or fix the problem but a you have to right now or else wont do it...
  11. Yea that was just a d***headed rookie looking for some action... my bestfriend here is a local cop and said b/c the way the law is writtin that u can have the lights and they can be on (excluding blue thats a no no) you just cant be merging traffic... if u do than that is a crime and u will go downtown... but as a licenced repo guy i can have amber and can use them as i see fit..
  12. im new to the facebook thing but i was looking for u and cant find it can u help
  13. i dont thing so... the most i think is a 3.?? making it a 5.7 where the 4.00 would make it a 6.0
  14. Im sorry but i dont see how a cop can make u uninstall anything... Im in FL maybe the laws are different but i would just tell you what u can do with urself and to write me a ticket... its not a criminal offence so u cant take me to jail unless theyre flashing and i was impersanting a cop... When im driving around with my repo truck (w/out a car on the hook) with all the yellow and red flashing merging traffic out of my way like an ems vehicle i never get messed with... And yes i have passed a cop i even merged 2 as i went passed them both !!!
  15. 402= stock bore w/ strocker crank 408= .030 over bore w/ strocker crank
  16. I ordered a stock 1 from scoggin Dickie yesterday with all the rest of my new motor stuff it works I'll let everyone know... my plan is to pull the metal ring.
  17. I need 1 also but i was under the impression that we can use stock gm donuts..
  18. The guys at Monster trans are morons!!! I was having shifting problems with my trans that started after my turbo install and a tune. they tried to convince me that the reason for the problems was I was making to much HP. they said I needed to which to some kind of a stuipid manual shift linkage instead of a computer controled shift... I knew they were dumb but I played along and after it was all said and done they tried to sell me the parts... i knew it was in the computer and after 4 months of fighting with it and just about the time I gave up my guys at a local Hot rod shop figured it out...
  19. I like but i think if i do anything to the gauges i just want all autometer... and maybe red if i can get them
  20. so i can brake on the dyno as normal but once I stop it has to go into P... and i dont put the truck in N ill be ok
  21. I need a new roommate can i have yours??? My wife didn't get me anything for Christmas... Maybe its b/c Im buying myself the new motor... :dunno:
  22. so dynoing and tuning it on the dyno which could take a couple hours will be ok
  23. and how does driving it differ from dynoing it?
