Tonyrodz's Tahoe Build Thread

[Tonyrodz]

Well the wrong injectors can hurt. Your tune needs to be set up for the rated flow. If you put too big of injectors in you can get too much fuel in the cylinders which is bad, and not big enough and it can run lean which is bad. If you’re not having problems I don’t see why you would change injectors. If you suspect they’re bad, I suggest pulling one to identify it and ordering the same ones in order to be safe.

Makes total sense. That's why I wanted to ask people's opinions. If anything these are new, so if they6not an upgrade at least they're still new. What little info I did find they did show as working in my applications (6.0 and my 4.8). I was hoping someone would know a little bit about them.

I used to have a link to ls based injector info but I can’t find it. I know when I upgraded mine I had to have BB adjust my tune for the bigger injectors. I cant find that link now. There’s plenty of guys here with more experience than me. Maybe @randeez has some insight and will chime in. I don’t know all that much but I do know your tune has to be adjusted if you put bigger injectors in.

Even if it's the same as what I have already, I'd be ok with that. I could probably even use them in my Express van if they were stockers. I've had a random misfire in that pos for forever.

Picked up my lower airdam today.
Last pic has the part number(s).
Way cheaper to buy directly from the dealer.

Ahh so you did end up buying them?

Figured might as well. Not sure where I'll use them. According to the part number, the Tahoe and Express van can use them. Van only has 151k on it. I've had a P0300 on since I bought it at 110k. And like everything else--it ****** me off.
Speaking of the van, I'm going with a rebuilt 4l80, with a few upgraded parts. The tc in it now is starting to fail--hasn't failed YET---I think, and I just got a job that I'll need my van. Gonna cost $1350 without a core, and I'm paying my son to install it. I'm not up to it. He should do it for free--he's not.

Will be good to sort the miss fire out in the van then. Yep touch wood that the t.c holds up till it's done.

The trans in the van is going out?

Sux because there's nothing wrong with the trans itself. Gonna try to sell it to recoup some $$
