My daily is a 2007 Silverado Z71 5.3, I treat it politely because it's a tool and I'm not in a rush to sink cash into the transmission. Wife's car is a different story, '21 WRX STI. Boost is...

I have not made any changes to the cold start settings. No street miles yet as we're still finishing up the braking system.

I have a very similar combo with the same camshaft, it barked to life within a couple seconds on the first try. I would verify that your distributor is set up per Holley's instructions, both...

I found myself in a similar spot with my current project. The Moser rep I worked with pointed out that the cost of a 35 spline 9" with all the upgrades and a Truetrac diff was a bit less than the...

Pulling the intake will be a bit more time consuming thanks to the FI system and its associated wiring. However, the very end of a long project seems like the wrong place to cut corners. I can't...

Those look like a magic bullet if you have clearance for huge valve covers. I have a brake booster and A/C bracket that would interfere.

I'm not sure if the original W-72 valve covers are baffled, or if there would be space to add one with 1.65:1 Crower stainless rockers.

New build, dumb PCV mistake?

After some years of mainly waiting on parts to materialize, my project has finally barked to life. No miles yet, but it idles fine and revs like it has an outstanding warrant. 400/467 stroker,...

I can confirm that Kore3 can supply you with a C6 setup that clears the 17x9 snowflakes. Requires minor mods to the knuckle. Not exactly a budget option, but you get billet hubs, upgraded bearings,...

Part of the scarcity is because the 93-97 units are all delaminating. The 98-02 lens is an easy swap for the older cars. Our 95 Formula's taillights have looked like crap since about 1999.

Thanks for the replies. I do not have another vehicle to test the carb on, nor have I gotten a hold of the carburetor yet. Are the older units better? I don't mind rebuilding one, but would rather...
