    8x Series V8 Swaps

    Personally I would stick with the GEN4 stuff. I think the performance will be pretty similar and less hassles like figuring out power steering pumps and exhaust parts. I think Car-Part would be ok to locate but I would make sure its a reputable yard selling the drivetrain. LKQ is another...

    8x Series V8 Swaps

    You are totally right and I guess I shouldn't assume he's talking about the 90's LT series engine. I wonder if the Gen5 stuff opens a bunch of new cans of worms with the direct injection? It may be similar to Gen4 but I am completely unfamiliar.

    8x Series V8 Swaps

    Some of the laws are very goofy. The VIN thing seems very odd to me but I've come across many things that make me scratch my head. One very odd one out here is that you can't have the exhaust system run forward in any manner. It makes no change in emission output and you can still place the...

    8x Series V8 Swaps

    You can't use the E-Rod because they are only good for pre-OBD2 vehicles. I agree with everyone that you should get the idea of an LT1 out of your head but I wouldn't write off doing a LS based GM engine swap in CA. (Disclaimer: Don't think I'm making it sound cheap or easy.) The swap isn't...

    BinksFab Front Bumper

    Winch are is. 250 plate and has gussets front to rear to stop from plate from puckering. The bumper tapers sharply at the front so we slotted the front holes to aid in starting the bolts. You get the front two started and then install the rears. Typically the installs we do in house on these...

    BinksFab Front Bumper

    Thanks again for the kind words! We build these in groups of 5 and also have sliders available as I am in the unfortunately slow process of designing a rear bumper that will be as slick as the front. I unfortunately dont get over here as much as I should so you that are reading this keep track...

    Slee, for the record I make no claim of these sliders being better than any other products out there. I'd prefer you not say you guys start slinging product and words because if you read back I'm pretty sure there was no words that came out of my mouth that are arrogant save for when the guy...

    Just for curiousity how many of you guys would be interested in a high clearance cat "kit"? I toyed with this idea before building this because I dislike something hanging below the framerails and started thinking with the age of these vehichles it may be time for cat replacement and what...

    Bolts are countersunk. We have wheeled Pauls truck in areas an 80 series shouldn't be. We bent his original outter tubes first hence why they are now .250 wall. I'm pretty sure if youre into something on a trail that you can come down on that skid hard enough to bend it youre somewhere you...
