    What did you do to your NBS GMT800 Tahoe/Yukon Today?

    Hitched it to my "new to me" 1986 Aires 176 Fish and Ski bass boat. While I love the Bermuda Blue my tahoe is, I may have to paint it like mu old ford. That way it matches the boat lol.

    Good cam?

    Truck Norris cam. More average power through the whole range and only giving up power at the very top of the rpm range. In a heavy vehicle you want more low and middle torque.

    Good cam?

    What are your plans for the vehicle? Towing? Racing? Just more usable power?

    Problems with worn valves. Need good advice

    Stock replacement head gasket should be used. Anything else has the potential to change measurements if they are not the same thickness.

    Years for updated pcv valve covers?

    1. Remove valve cover 2. Clean out oil clogged ports and make them a little bigger 3. Install new pcv valve 4.Change your oil on a better schedule so the drain ports in the cover don't clog Not necessarily needed but I did on BOTH my 5.3s 5. Install oil catch can 6. Don't use the upgraded covers...

    2003 Tahoe 5.3 VIN-Z - P0300 With a Twist

    If you can get a helper looking at moving rockers is easier. Remove coil packs and valve covers and pull the fuel pump relay. Have helper crank the engine while you watch rockers. Look for any that aren't moving a whole lot, or seem to have slop. Otherwise, use a socket and breaker bar to rotate...

    External trans filter?

    Cool. Thinking about doing it too, and found this thread in a search. So I figured I would ask. How does it seem to be doing?

    Those look to be in very good condition. I am glad you were able to find a good set.

    2003 Tahoe 5.3 VIN-Z - P0300 With a Twist

    Something is wrong with the wiring, O2 sensors or tune. If the ST trims are always zero either they are not reading the change ( not good) or they aren't changing...and idk how that is possible without it being a tune issue. Can you flash back to the stock everything tune and see what happens...

    Shorty headers worth it for 5.3?

    Very welcome. I hate for folks to spend money that isn't going to get them what they think it should.

    Shorty headers worth it for 5.3?

    They are worth 3hp and 3tq on a 4.8..... so let's say they are worth 4.5hp/tq on a 5.3. Header test Long tubes are the only way to go when naturally aspirated or supercharged. And stock manifolds go well into the 800s with a turbo. They are well designed.

    What did you do to your NBS GMT800 Tahoe/Yukon Today?

    out with the old and in with the new. Fairly surprising they lasted this long. I had to do the Silverado 6 years ago.

    Perhaps a 4 wheel alignment would point to the problem
