  1. J

    Surging on downhill and flat driving surfaces:

    Calling all 6.2/6.5 gurus

    Hi folks, I’m looking for a few good gurus to help me with my project. I have an ‘89 GM diesel crew cab. She spent many years as a fleet vehicle for a pipeline service company, then went through half a dozen private owners before I rescued her. I was told she had an 6.2L originally, and that...

    Hi Everyone, First post here, but been browsing the forums for the past two years. Grateful for the wealth of information archived here. I purchased the truck in my sig in the spring of 2016, and it came with an extra tune. I was told by the owner that the truck currently has a "buddy" chip in...

    I've decided to do a Cummin's conversion

    I have a 94 Cummin's 12 valve w/60k I'm going to install in the 99 Burb. Wondering if I can get any input from those who have done this. I'll be using the 4L80e and because I still have the AutoTrac thinking the stock ECM will do for trans control, etc., I do plan to go w/NP241c in the near...
