    SPUN BEARING? NEED INFO

    Bad turbos can make all sorts of rattles, squeals, you name it. Here's a hx35 on a 12v that came in for an engine noise. Source: https://youtube.com/shorts/iTd5I-rRVXA?feature=share Sent from my SM-G960U1 using Tapatalk

    Hyperflash turn signals

    Local dealer service advisor called me back after some research and claims theres a flash for the bcm for box delete or cab/chassis trucks. We are gonna try that. Sent from my SM-G960U1 using Tapatalk

    Hyperflash turn signals

    Is there a reflash for the bcm in the newer trucks to correct hyperflash signals from LED lights? Sent from my SM-G960U1 using Tapatalk

    Best rotors

    A customer of mine has managed to warp his OE and now Napa Fleet front rotors ive installed on his 2018. What have you guys found to hold up to aggressive brake users/towing? These trucks are known for this issue. Thought maybe Napa's Fleet stuff might have been the fix.....

    Camshafts

    If its one or the other, spend the money on a diff converter. You can get your stock cam keyed if that's a concern. Sent from my SM-G960U1 using Tapatalk

    Radiator replacement, transmission cooler line issues

    The clips will be spread apart too far. Remove them, squeeze them together and reinstall them being careful not spread them again. It may take a few trys Sent from my SM-G960U1 using Tapatalk

    Low Coolant Warning

    These trucks are famous for bad coolant level sensors in the bottle. Is the truck actually losing coolant?? Sent from my SM-G960U1 using Tapatalk

    Catastrophic

    These rods use a small diameter hemi wrist pin. The hemi pin rods are actually heavier than the standard rod but the pin & piston are both lighter. Sent from my SM-G960U1 using Tapatalk

    Catastrophic

    The piston(4.100") assembly weighs a good bit less than the diamonds. Will be nice to take a bunch of weight out of the crank compared to last balance. Be a shame to drill up this crank. Lol Sent from my SM-G960U1 using Tapatalk

    Chevelle upgrades.

    The last 3 sets I've used have all had 1 crack. 1 set in a ~400rwhp hotshot dually, and 2 sets in 1000 rwhp trucks. It almost seems like they have had a quality issue or design change in the last 5 years. All the sets I've used or been a part of years ago(like 8 to 10) are still going strong...

    Lift pump

    I inherited a customer with a fass on his '15 lml. Pump had been on the truck for years, 200k probably. He had been driving with the pump off due to bad wiring for a long time, with no issues. I will say, if you drive off road or in salty winter conditions a lot, or never wash your truck, the...

    Forged or Cast pistons

    Should have mentioned earlier. The socal crank obviously requires machining to the rods on the big ends. The rod bearings only need chamfered, their working area actually doesn't get reduced. They of course offer the parts or services to make it all work. Whereas the .040 narrower cranks may...

    Forged or Cast pistons

    Socals crank is .250 narrower rod journals than stock. Callies is .040 narrower. Im assuming the winberg is the same as callies. Im currently shopping for one as we speak. Both Wagler and my machinist say good luck getting a Callies these days. Socal is the most expensive at around $6k retail...
