    Yes! esp with the 4.3 and the 4.8s people whine about from the gmt400+ eras Admittdently, the only reason you could conceivably want a 4.8 in a early 2000s pickup when spec'ed beside the equivalent in a 5.3 was you would be without AFM... The mileage was the same. The 4.3 got a TINY bit better...

    305s made gm money people paid to not have them, and they increased CAFE when that became a factor, because if you didnt give them money for the better enine, you got the engine which kept them competitive on the emissions front. mind you, in the same years as these, fords were doing far...

    Tires for Stock Rims '79 K20

    despite what another has said to you, there is little risk esp with the condition your wheels are obviously. if you use that last pic you can see where the stamps are, then you can use the charts to see anything maybe important

    Vintage Air Gen V (5) or replace existing compressor, etc., for 1987 R20 Suburban?

    if you want to column swap you can but youd need to make the gmt400 column a 3 speed shift gate lol and then find out which direction it shifts you toward, because one of the 4 spots wont be useable lol

    Vintage Air Gen V (5) or replace existing compressor, etc., for 1987 R20 Suburban?

    so basically his tbi setup is best destined to find its way in a square , but a different one! Lol I also wonder if the 2500 (heavy) gmt400 tbi is any different than the ld 2500 or the 1500s? because if it came with a 4l80e its probably out of a 8 lug 3/4 ton

    Interior cabin trims

    which means neeed to pay attention to the standing pinch weld when installing and doing the trim pieces, because the trim and seals are not OEM and the pinch welds may have been bumped, so a rubber mallet should be in the toolbox and maybe a a rag and a hand-brake or seamers (seamers) (hand...

    Vintage Air Gen V (5) or replace existing compressor, etc., for 1987 R20 Suburban?

    The heat bleed is still happening, albeit if you have the heater door blend door (fun fact, i think they sell them new still apparently they fall apart?) because there is still air leakage and the thing is radiating heat inside the box(better in a square than it would be in, say, a gmt800 or...
