I did my garage about two months ago with the rustoleum professional kit.. actually I had to wind up buying 3 kits. So far so good. It has a very nice gloss to it and have had my vehicles in and out and all the paint is sticking down with no issues. Wish I would have done this years ago, this makes cleaning up the floor a breeze when your out there working and now my little guy can be out in the garage with me rolling his toy trucks around without getting dirty and getting me yelled at by the wife lol.

And this is how crappy my floor was before...

I installed this thingy on the top of my 2017 6.2L. Not really sure what it does, but my truck goes really fast now.

My dad did the rusoleum kit about 8 years ago. It's chipping in a lot of spots all over and all he does is park in there. It sure what the lifespan is for the kit.

Just put in the Airaid tube, trimmed the stock air box, and added the Elite Engineering catch can. I'll do some test hits with the trimmed out air box, send them in to Black Bear and see what comes of it. I am still running the stock air filter...

Me as well, from just about everything I have read, and talked to people in the "know", you get the best results out of the tube, and box. The filter, as long as it isn't a total piece of crap, is not as important to the over all results. That's just from what I have found, so for those who see things differently, start a new topic, we can discuss it there.

Installed a painted Denali grill and installed my red tow hooks while I had things apart. fbe82d4944cb8bc52b011da3f70a807e.jpg

 

And of course only reason I did it was to match my boys power wheels Denali [emoji23]b52398d1bbf0f3e3553556f48ff2b60e.jpg

I never got it

Hey bro. Hit him up on IG or email. IG: Maine Coast Customs; [email protected]

 

It's pretty quick. Although we are good friends from HS so I'm not sure if he skips me into the line. His name is Jeff. Tell him Gary Smedley sent you.

      Wow I'm in a pickle. (Broke down truck) and a story.

      By Atlas · Posted

      Progress... sort of.   Intake is disassembled, spider is out, fuel lines removed. Used a torch on the stripped screw with the lower intake off, much easier when I've got the intake sitting on my workbench, I made it talk. Walked right out with a pair of vice grips once it was nice and toasty hot.   New parts are piling up on my service cart waiting to be installed. Distributor, temperature sensor, new gaskets, fuel line kit, themostat, water neck.   My new pickle is I don't want to spend $600 on a replacement spider. I'm not sure IT is bad. I'm probably splitting hairs. Or it's $300 to send mine away and another 3 weeks of the truck just sitting. I have half a mind to assemble everything with the old spider to see if I can get away with just replacing the fuel pressure regulator to be safe. The obvious issue was the gushing high pressure fuel line which will be replaced. Getting to the spider really isn't that hard, and now I know what I'm doing , swapping it would be a breeze should it absolutely need one. Stupid, or smart?   The part that gives me pause is replacing the distributor. Well, it's already out. And I didn't mark it, whoopsie! Engine was at TDC when I removed it, I know that, so upon correct reinstall the metal tip on the rotor should point to the TDC mark on the distributor because that's where it was pointing on the old distributor. Worst case I'm a tooth off and have to re-stab it.   But then, what? I assume the truck will start. It doesn't appear the timing can be set. Here's the problem: These distributors can't be rotated but a degree or two, by design. What I read is Cam ****** needs to be -2 to +2 degrees, ideally at 0 (and checked/set above 1000 rpm). There should be enough wiggle to get that properly set, but checking the reported value is another potential issue. My Actron 9185 scanner says it supports enhanced GM PIDs and Cam ****** is one of them but it's unclear that I'll be able to correctly see it over OBD 1.5. I can see why people end up junking these things with life left in them. They're an absolute nightmare with tweener-year diagnostics/electronics and unobtanium parts.   Fingers crossed it starts and idles nicely. There can be hope, right? I'ma buy a lottery ticket the same day just in case.   Next steps..DO IT. I have not installed an intake before so I've been reading and watching a lot. Some say NO RTV except on china walls, some say DO RTV on water ports but not fuel/air intake. 1/4 or 3/8 bead on China walls? I think my strategy will be, obviously, RTV china walls with overlap on the gasket corners. Chapstick-style RTV the water ports. Leave intake ports dry. The only set of intake gaskets I could find locally are Edelbrock performance gaskets (uh...for an asthmatic 190hp V6? LOL) so we'll see how they do.   #NoToolLeftBehind. It took an hour, but my recovery mission for my deep 10mm socket was successful. It had rolled down the bellhousing and wedged itself between what I think are the fuel lines? I couldn't see it at all, but with a junk antenna I had laying around, I blindly went poking/sweeping for it, heard it clink, raised the truck, and caught a sliver glimpse of chrome with a flashlight way up there in Narnia. I had pushed it farther along the lines holding it captive, but within access of severely improvised tools, poking and cursing at it to finally knock it free to where I could get a fingertip on it to bring it home.    Not much to see.
