So I went and drove the truck this morning and it has a radiator leak. Have no clue why it didn’t show up when I pressure tested it overnight...

Finally got the truck back, put pressure on the system overnight and no leaks, held 21psi. So now I’m thinking it’s going to need head gaskets...again. Then I noticed the new cap was a MotoRad not GM. Put a new GM cap on and all is good! Coolant siphoned over like it should overnight...
Would the system build enough pressure to make the radiator hose rock hard? The reason I ask is that I went out and flogged this truck to try and get it to build pressure and nothing.
After he brings the truck back and if the coolant system checks out I'll pull the heads and have them...
Thanks for the info, I am going to clamp the lower surge tank hose and put a vacuum through the upper hose using my mityvac (with the cap on) and see if I can get to pull over.
Truck is a 2012 LML with an H&S tuner, head studs, and a full delete kit. Has a new surge tank and cap. Water pump and thermostats changed when studs were done.

Cleaned the hubs and no change. Unplug the ABS module and everything works like it should. We also noticed that the truck rolls or moves easier with the ABS unplugged, like the bakes were very slightly applied.
06 LBZ has an odd braking issue. When the brakes are applied truck stops fine until just before you come to a stop. The steering wheel will see-saw back and forth like the front brakes are alternating back and forth.
System has been bled 3 times, truck has braided steel lines. Automated...
I did find the zip kits, checking with sonnax to make sure they fit. Will a 6L80 converter fit in this particular 6L50? I talked to a few shops who do converters for 6L80s and they were not sure if they would fit. Initially the answer was "yes", until I told them what the transmission was in...
