  3. Subject: Information on New Spark Plugs and Gapping #03-06-04-060 - (10/24/2003) Models: 2004 Buick Ranier 2002-2004 Cadillac Escalade, Escalade EXT 2003-2004 Cadillac Escalade ESV 2004 Cadillac CTS-V 1997-2004 Chevrolet Corvette 1998-2002 Chevrolet Camaro 1999-2004 Chevrolet Silverado 2000-2004 Chevrolet Suburban, Tahoe 2002-2004 Chevrolet Avalanche 2003-2004 Chevrolet Express, TrailBlazer 1999-2004 GMC Sierra 2000-2004 GMC Yukon, Yukon XL 2001-2004 GMC Yukon Denali, Yukon XL Denali 2002-2004 GMC Sierra Denali 2003-2004 GMC Envoy XL 1998-2002 Pontiac Firebird 2004 Pontiac GTO 2003-2004 Hummer H2 with 4.8L, 5.3L, 5.7L or 6.0L V-8 Engine (VINs V, P, T, Z, G, S, N, U -- RPOs LR4, LM4, LM7, L59, LS1, LS6, LQ9, LQ4) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- A new spark plug has been released for use in the above vehicles. The new spark plug has an Iridium tip instead of the current Platinum tip. Due to the different tip design, the gap of the spark plug has also changed. The new spark plug, P/N 12571164 with AC Delco P/N 41-985, is gapped to 1.01mm (0.040 inches) when the spark plug is made. The spark plug gap is set during manufacturing and should not be changed or damage to the spark plug may result. Any new spark plug found to not be properly gapped should not be used.
  4. glad everyone's all right.. the big thing is the geology difference between the east and west cost, is why you only felt a very little. in LA. a 5.7 would have done a lot more damage then just some buildings shaking a bit..now where i live we don't get the shakers, we get the rollers. we had a 6.5 hit some years ago about 8 mi. from the house, and you could see the the valley floor roll like waves as it went across. the coolest part was seeing the mountain range 20 mi away float up and down.. good luck..
  5. try here... http://airswimmers.com/ scroll down to the link for M&M toy store. their about $40.00 each. airswimmers can be a little hard to get loaded at times..
  6. for you RC fans, here is a must have.. pretty cool. also a Clown fish. start your own aquarium..
  7. that thing looks more like one of those.."hay little girl, want some candy".. rides
  8. check for a exhaust leak around your manifold and collector pipes. it doesn't have to be a large leak. if none found, do a compression test you may have a exhaust valve going bad. good luck
  9. what do you mean by getting stupid.. It's been stupid since 1968..damn hippies..
  10. here is what my hinges look like..not the best pic..bought mine new in Sept. 04
  11. i would check with a local smog shop. when i got mine done 2 weeks ago, the guy asked about my dual tips., as long as it had a single muffler i was good..they have changed a lot of rules this past year that are not being put out to the public.. best i can say is go to the sores, and ask a smog tech.. good luck
  12. good luck.. i'll try to get under the cover tomorrow and see if i can get some measurements on the inside clearances..
  13. i have the X 2000 on mine and i can only get less than 3/8" of my finger under my lid. the lid should NOT touch the bed rails or the tail gate. if i remember from the inside of the bed lip to where my cover rests when closed is 5". maybe you need to adjust the hinges a little so it will sit lower with out resting on the bed/tail gate.. this is how mine sits..
  14. unknown on price, but guessing $600+. mid's will never be as good as LT's but i think they will hold their own to about 4500 rpm. with the 1 5/8 tubes, and 2 1/2" collectors should give a good boost in low end TQ. I've got TOG's now and if CA is cracking down on OE # i may have to switch them out.. can't find the OE # or my paper work for them... :banghead:
  15. this is the best we can do here.. http://www.bassani.com/part/601500C maybe a mild cam swap. if you can keep your HC/CO's within spec, your cats are there, sounds stock, then it must be a stock cam.. blower, someone must make a CARB blower. i know what your saying about it's getting harder to find someone to look the outer way. just got mine done last week, and the guy who has been smogging my vehicles for years, is now asking for CARB stickers for my intake and TOG's.. but there is a rummer around town that for $200 plus the cert. one guy will play Ray Charles for a couple of min.. good luck..
  16. a little bit of home will do that...
  17. could not get past the first 10 seconds...sorry
  18. this always makes me working for a Government contractor, i was required to over see the DZSO to make sure all regulations for the drop zone were followed. seen my share of OOPS in my time, and some not so funny enjoy..
