  1. lol...I guess so, every time I post something it does that for some reason...guess it's this company issued POS computer.
  2. Just like the title says, I'm looking for a stock intake. Let me know what you got and what you want for it. Thanks
  3. Don't have a picture right now, I'll get one this afternoon when I get home and post it tonight.
  4. I just re-opened the website and saw that. I didn't even hit post, I was proof-reading the post before submitting it and it automatically submitted. I don't know what happened.
  5. Hey guys, I have a triple gauge pod with speaker hole that I want to trade for a stock one. If you have one, I'll trade straight up if you pay the shipping for yours to me and mine to you. The pod also has two holes for the small lights that were used for methanol "arm" light and "warning" light. Looks great, just don't have gauges anymore.
  6. Fluid doesn't smell burnt and it is filled to the correct level. I don't understand why 4th would fail and not 3rd along with it.
  7. Alright guys, I did a search on here and read many things that could be the culprit of the problem I am facing. After the tranny was built and put in, the 3-4 shift was very mushy and the converter wouldn't stay locked up in 4th for very long if i set the cruise control. It wanted to downshift. I got up Sunday morning, and had no 4th at all. So, I'm driving around with 3 gears that work absolutely perfect. The tune on the truck is stock, I installed a PI 3000 stall converter, pinless accumulator pistons, corvette 2nd servo, superior 4th servo, Alto carbonite band, larger boost valve, HD pump spring, alto red eagle 3-4, alto 1-2 clutches, beast shell, and Tru-Cool max cooler. Any help would be appreciated, this is getting to be a PITA! Thanks!
  8. Guess it was the pump afterall, I was riding around last night, truck shut off running about 50 mph. I replaced the filter while on the side of the road, no luck. Turned the key on and off several times to see if fuel would come out of the line with the filter off, got nothing. Sucks! One question, could I place an inline electric fuel pump on the truck without replacing the stock pump? Just wondering if the pump would allow the fuel to flow through it. Thanks!
  9. Yes. The aftermarket pinless pistons have many advantages over the stock. They are not made of plastic, you don't have to worry about the pin bore wear, they are double sealed, and the larger design prevents the piston from cocking inside the piston bore. I do have a question on these pinless accumulator pistons though as well. When I took my valve body apart, either the 1-2 or 3-4 stock accum. piston came with an inner and outer spring. The Pinless pistons I bought included only one spring, are you supposed to re-use the stock inner spring along with the aftermarket outer spring or leave it out?
  10. I will definitely clean it this weekend and see if it helps. Thanks alot!
  11. Yes I can hear it run when the key is first turned, I guess I haven't listened close enough to tell if the tone changes signaling it is primed. I have changed the plugs and wires, fuel filter, air filter, and MAF (maybe a few times) since this started and nothing changed. Could it be a fuel pressure regulator or something like that? The truck has about 200,000 miles on it, and (knock on wood) I've never been inside the engine. As for the tranny, it has been inside of a dozen times or so. I had nitrous on it at one time and all the bolt on bells and whistles until I bought my SSS, which at that time I went back to stock so that I could drive it to work everyday. I didn't change everything all at one time, it was a progressive change over a few years. I have no clue what this could be.
  12. I replaced the pump about two years ago and before I replaced it, it made a very loud whining noise when the truck ran and when it primed; and the fuel gauge didn't work. My fuel gauge has since quit working again but the fuel pump is not loud like before and that is why I thought it may be something else.
  13. I have a '99 Silverado RCSB with 5.3L. No tune, and only a few bolt on mods (shorty headers, electric fans, 160* stat). The truck has had a problem starting for the past year or so when you first get in it. It acts like you have to prime the pump or something to start. If you jump in and turn the key it will just turn over; turn the key again and it will just turn over, then finally on the third round it will start. The way I've been dealing with it is turn the key on and off a few times before trying to start it to let the fuel pump run. Is there a simple fix to this problem?
