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.

Going to replace the grille. Haven't decided how to proceed with headlights. Someone want to give me their midnight editions?

This is my first post and I want to start off by saying thanks. I lurked this forum for a year before I finally decided what truck I wanted to buy. I practically read everyone's reviews and looked at every amazing pic y'all posted. I went with the 5.3 with the street package.

 

Now onto what I did today. I polished with a DA buffer and Jescar finishing compound, then I applied an aircraft sealant called Cilajet

Nice truck, and welcome to the forum!

 

I had a good chuckle at the picture of the truck and airplane with the number on the tail fin blanked out. Most people blank out their license plate but this is a whole new level :lol:

Thanks SilveradoSaver

It is funny. I just didn't want to risk making someone mad since most private jet owners like to keep things private. Especially since it's easy to track a planes movement with certain apps or even just googling a tail number

Waiting to get my truck back today. Dropped it off yesterday for an oil change, and the alignment re-done (been off since they replaced motor mounts). They also got my new headlight in, but needed to keep it over night to let the paint on the bezel dry before installing it. Every time I drive a loaner it makes me really appreciate my 6.2 and ltz plus package. [emoji23]

Time to get rid of the chrome colored mesh on the hood scoop. Don't mind my wrapping paper. This is what it comes to when you stop getting the newspaper.5a2def63887bcee3ed128b8807c1cd34.jpg

I installed the driver assist handle in mine. Took me 10 minutes only because I had to go get the wrench and check the forums to see what people did with the retention clip. Should take all of 5 minutes normally.

      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.
