  1. Hello all, just wondering if anyone has heard of someone doing a lq9/lq4 swap...and having problems keeping the between trans abs transfer case extension housing together. Or problems in their SS for that matter... I'm not gonna lie I go WOT as much as possible, but it seems odd to me either way. She has a shift kit.. Maybe it's too aggressive? Any experience on this would be Appreciated cause now my transfer case is basically hanging their and the yoke has significant abnormal wear.. Before I replace it all I would like to see if their are any fixes.. I was thinking a custom transfer case brace similar to a Dmax, but not much room under there.. Thanks in advance.
  2. True dual 3" coming soon

  3. I was eyeballing that Holley high ram for sure. I just need something to hold up to some boost. I just bought a s475/87 and building my kit slowly but surely. I'm thinking of running 10lbs and hope for close to 600rwhp. The custom thing isn't a big deal, but Im interested in a carbureted style intake with the horn on top. Was wondering if anyone sold those.? Probably not. I'll prolly go with the Holley. Does anyone know how much hp deKa 60's are good for on a lq9?
  4. Got my truck on the dyno today despite STOCK injectors, which I know I need bigger. Going deKa 60's. As you can guess I'm not happy with my results. The data log showed 100% injector flow from 4500 up. But the truck is still rich.... So I need air.... Now I know the options with Fast and MSD and sheet metals. But I'm just interested to know some custom stuff people have done with their intake manifold and CAI. I like custom. Just to have something different. Looking for ideas... Thank you in advance. I'm leaning towards building 4" custom intake with 100mm MAF for CAI. I know you're going to ask so I did 350/380 on the dyno jet. Weak. Mail order tune by zippy.
  5. When you're putting the keys in, are you accounting for them to bind in the control arm? Usually torsion bars are a little sloppy in the control arm, when you look at them it looks like a socket about to strip a bolt head. My guess is you're having height problems because the way you install them doesn't hold front end up the way it should. I could be wrong but usually the parts aren't the problem. When you install those keys you should be needing a special clamp to get them where they need to be. The torsion key should be tight on the lock before you even set it down.

  7. Thanks for replying man. After some thinking my goal when starting this was to keep the shift point below 6500, so A bigger cam is out of the question. I've been kicking around the ? Supercharger or turbo for awhile. Just being a student and working I can't have my truck torn down too long and I know I could do heads in a day. Maybe ill just keep saving for a 408. I appreciate the feedback though, definitely helped. They're so many possibilities with these motors my mind is all over the place.
  8. Merry Christmas everyone! This time of year always reminds me just how great life really is
  9. Alright guys, the day comes closer and closer that ill be making my purchase and I have a few questions. I have the cam in my sig right now because I wanted a broad power curve. My first question is, will higher compression tame down a bigger cam? Right now I'm about 10.5:1, I've never been on a dyno so I don't know what my band looks like right now. I just don't want to rev the crap out of my motor to get my power, 6600 max rpm. If I go with say a 228r on 110lsa and bump my compression to about 11.25:1 with some stg 2.5 PRC heads, would my powerband stay lower? I expect it would be higher than it is now, but I'm hoping not too much. Or maybe compression doesn't matter, just displacement? Which I am the stock 364. Basically I'm trying to figure out if I need to buy a new cam with my setup, I know I need it to make more horsepower, but I don't want to sacrifice alot of torque. If you guys would wanna help me out with some dyno sheets that would be great! My plan is the stg 2.5 ls6 heads milled to 62-63cc, port matched FAST 102 LSXRT, NW 102DBW, custom 4" intake with MAF. I will need an x-link of course. And potentially the 228r or equivalent cam, I was even thinking torquer v2, but thought it might be a tad large for what I want.
  10. Definitely worth checking converter bolts and flexplate, I broke one on an old 94 chevy I had with a big lift. I don't recall it making noise but eventually my starter had a hard time engaging. If you take the starter off you can see converter bolts, in a 2wd it should be cake. But to see the rest of flexplate is gonna be tough because of the converter.
  11. The way I see it. If its making some pretty ridiculous noise and your motor still runs perfect, maybe even some wot... it's most likely not the motor. Though I have been wrong before. Maybe take the little cover off the bottom of your trans and go in there with a magnet, maybe you got a piece of rubbish in there clunking around on your flexplate. Do you have the dust cover on your starter hole? It sounds to me like something stupid. I don't think a potentially extreme and serious noise would be in the motor then just go away. Wish you were closer, I'd sure like to check it out. I guess your motor could have spit something into the exhaust and it gets stuck from time to time in the cat, sounds kinda far fetched though. If you have enough time on your hands maybe just pop a valve cover off just to look. If you took off the bottom end, and the pushrods and rockers all look right, I think you could rule out motor.
  12. I would just like to say that a member on here, Mcinalli, did me a huge solid. I am a college kid, graduate in may thank goodness. I explained my situation to him and he allowed me to do payments on them. Like any situation you need to have trust you'll get your product and cash on the other end. This transaction couldn't have went any better and I really appreciate the help he gave me. Thanks man!
