    Peninsular 3" Intake Plenum

    I drilled and tapped for the IAT sensor, Boost sensor, and boost gauge.

    Who is robzombie4551 on youtube?

    I looked up GM's spec yesterday and it says min. 6PSI idle. I would crap if my oil pressure was 6 at idle.

    Who is robzombie4551 on youtube?

    What is your guys oil pressure at hot idle? Mine even while towing the trailer on a 100 degree day it never drops below 20 at idle. I have 174K miles on mine.

    Rear USB charging ports instead of ash trays

    Hey, if you think it's easier running a fused power under the carpet, great! But being the windows are already fused and these draw hardly anything it's pretty pointless to run a separate fused wire. Unless you are mounting them somewhere else. I was going to mount them at the bottom of the...

    Rear USB charging ports instead of ash trays

    Because power and ground were 4" away in each door and if for some reason I would want to cut power to them I can just flip the window lock switch. You can mount them wherever you want, these work great for us mounted in the doors because most trips are longer ones heading to campgrounds or...

    The Powermaster 9052 starter for 6.2 and 6.5

    I don't think so after seeing that video. It definitely turns it over faster than the stock one did, but not as fast as the powermaster in the video.

    Bigger engine oil cooler

    Anyone ever monitor engine oil temps while towing? I remember reading an article in Maxxtorque about Duramax oil overheating and they used a bigger or addtional engine oil cooler to help and it helped coolant temps. Was just wondering if cooling down our oil would help some of the engine...

    My Water to Air intercooler install

    That's going to be sweet. I wish someone near me had a WTA setup. I would like to test and see if there's a big difference in temps towing between the 2. I bought my truck in 2005 and towing our 9000lb toyhauler up I80(Sierra Nevada Mountains) I knew I needed something after watching IAT's...

    Radiant barrier for windows

    Yeah. I like them a lot. Especially the side window ones. Just kind of push in there and stay.

    Radiant barrier for windows

    I bought these several years ago. They have held up really well and work really well. They fit perfect unlike the universal cheap onea. http://store.ceebaileys.com/Custom-Auto-Sunshields-for-Cars-Trucks-SUV-s-Vans-s/797.htm

    Rear USB charging ports instead of ash trays

    Hey just thought of something. When I was looking to do this, I was originally going to wire it to the courtesy light in the door. They have 12 volts all the time. You would just need to run a ground. I put LEDS in all of my interior lights, so I knew the circuit would be fine running it...

    Rear USB charging ports instead of ash trays

    My youngest is strapped in her carseat in the center rear seat so it's not a problem. She can't reach the switches.

    Rear USB charging ports instead of ash trays

    I have a crew cab 1999 K2500 OBS and am sick of my kids needing run cords up front to charge their phones or tablet while we're driving. I never use my ash trays in the back doors. So I bought 2 USB charging ports, grabbed some plastic, and painted them to match the interior, There is already...

    quick question fan clutch

    I tried the Dorman pulley a few years back. Didn't even last 2 years and had maybe 15,000 miles on it when it failed. I ended up getting one from Chevy. So far so good. I wouldn't waste my money on a dorman.

    Thermostatic Fan Clutch

    Did it engage sooner? Thats my problem, I need it engage sooner. It will run cool if I can get the clutch to engage before a hill its fine and stays cool. But if my clutch isn't engaged and I get to a big hill it will get up over 230 before it engages. I have the Heath severe duty and DMax fan.

    Diesel HPR special fuel

    Don't know man. Just repeating what I was told by someone who travels the country claiming to test fuel where he teaches. Don't know if other states just don't have the requirements for keeping fuel that CA does or what. But myself nor any friends with diesels have had an issue with fuel...

    Diesel HPR special fuel

    I've filled up probably 10 times now with the HPR. Truck seems to idle smoother. mileage seems to be about the same, and its cheaper than regular diesel. I'm not to worried about using it. I ran Propels B5 and B20 and never had a problem with it either. Most of the rest of the country...

    1999 OBS with RCD lift

    Installed a RCD 6" lift on my truck. Happy how it turned out. Just need to modify my trans. crossmember to do the torsion bar relocaters. I'll like it a lot more when the torsion bars aren't hanging down. I didn't do the full 6" It's almost 5". CV angles still look good. Drives awesome...

    The Powermaster 9052 starter for 6.2 and 6.5

    Yeah. Thats the starter I have. Looks like it's been in my truck for 2.5 years. I got mine through World Pac. They only sell to repair shops as far as I know.

    Bring it on! Att vs. Hx35

    Well since we're all throwing out opinions. I've had my ATT for 5 or 6 years now and would never go back. I had Bill Heath redo my tune for it, and I love it. He told me it was a lazy turbo and towing with it is horrible. I said well, just do the best you can with my tune and we'll see what...
