Rust free state options
Yeah, cool build. There's a joke on the automotive bodywork/paint and restoration community that patina is for guys that can't do bodywork. I kinda agree, but that truck actually looks cool with mild oxidation/patina on the white paint, and you pop the hood, and you are like, "damn!" Looks like...- stutaeng

Manual seat to Electic
Sure, nothing wrong with that. I got the fold down console as @Tonimus . I always hated that fixed console since I bought the truck. If I dropped something on the passenger floorboard, you have to reach and rub your ribcage on the console. I also deleted the console on my 06 Suburban. My... -

Awesome! Oh, so what i meant to ask earlier was how the TH400 works with the LS engines? Isn't there a TV linkage on those units? I'm not familiar with them.- stutaeng

Serving 4L60e’s for dinner
Ideally, you want a unit that's never been apart as your first build. But you gotta do what you gotta do. Did you get the manual? May be a good idea to print it and have it handy. I think I mentioned somewhere on this forum before, but you need to have 3 areas generously sized: the case on a...- stutaeng

Grandpa's '92 Dakota
I'm not sure if I've mentioned this before, but YT Channel called Mountains Garage has a TON of videos on the TH400. Pretty sure he's got the most out there. I've watched a lot of them to learn about the shared parts with the 4L80e. He does crazy high power competition builds as well. I like...- stutaeng

Stutaeng's 1999 Silverado
Oh, I forgot to update on the minivan... I ordered and installed a Dorman upgraded metal housing thermostat (with a lower 185F vs factory 203F thermostat,) also the Dorman metal upgraded crossover thingy part, and a new radiator cap. The crossover pipe is kinda of PIA because you have to remove...- stutaeng

Stutaeng's 1999 Silverado
Ya. I'm not a big fan of Chick-fil-a even tho they are immensely popular around here. My now-favorite grilled chicken sandwich is from Whataburger (Waterburger, lol). You can add jalapeños as an option (unlike their competitors!) and their sauce/dressing is pretty good. I recommend it if they...- stutaeng

Stutaeng's 1999 Silverado
Just got from a round trip to Austin for a job from my office. Our company F150s were getting some sort of recall work. A tree fell on a condominium, but it was pretty minor stuff and not a lot to see..."another day at the office (field, actually.)" Silverado drives so nice. Absolutely no...- stutaeng

Nice! How do you control that transmission? Standalone controller? Wouldn't it be cheaper to just find a good running 4L60e to keep the ECU/wiring more straightforward? But I have no idea how that would swap into that chassis?- stutaeng

I thought all of these vehicles had a factory magnetic drain bolt, no?- stutaeng

01 5.3 incompatible with 03 NV4500
Interesting, although I don't know anything about manual transmissions. A few years ago I built a 6.0 from parts and my crank was from a guy that built and raced LS swapped S10s. Crank was a from a 5.3 and I had to get it balanced to the 6.0, which involved the machine shop installing those...- stutaeng
