    Brown/black advanced wire

    Thanks - this manual is gold. Engine wise (specific to the sensors) my truck is extremely stock. I did replace the gauges, which I believe, I need to call the gauge ‘customer support line’ concerning the TCC / speed sensor set up. Best part, all procedures are laid out perfectly. Thanks again

    LS swap cost - COMPLETE a-z Drive in, drop it off & pick up tuned and perfect.?

    $10k I can do that. You guys think it would devalue a 'stock' clean V10?

    LS swap cost - COMPLETE a-z Drive in, drop it off & pick up tuned and perfect.?

    Yes, this is still under consideration - But, I think I would like the reliability and power ease. I can't find anyone local that is able to do this.

    LS swap cost - COMPLETE a-z Drive in, drop it off & pick up tuned and perfect.?

    Guys - I know this is loaded question - BUT - in your opinion, what is a fair cost range to have a reputable shop perform a COMPLETE LS SWAP into my 1987 V10? Keeping my 700R4?? or swap that too? Let's say…the donor engine has less than 50k miles, perfect running engine - no need for a...

    New to tbi, no start 87 blazer

    you have fuel going in? - but it only starts with starter fluid? If you start it with starter fluid and it runs for a few seconds, can you still see the fuel in the TBI? It should be fine mist out of both injectors.
