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

Don't know if I'm going to color match it just yet. Might just try to paint the chrome the same metallic gray.... will need a few cans of etching primer, do the front and rear bumpers, but I think it'll come out 'aight!

Gonna pull the roof rack and the six bars, do them all too.

Yeah that sounds great too. Even if not color matched, it will tie in with your color scheme/contrast nicely just like the grille.

I can't say for sure if they have resolved the overheating and melting issues yet. I can say for certain though that I have not had a single issue with my OEM harness that I got from a 06 Silverado. I've had my E-fans wired up with an OEM harness for over 6 years now and the summers here in Louisiana can be pretty brutal. We regularly have triple digit temperatures, and sometimes for over a month straight. And even in these extreme temps, I have not seen even a hint of any melting on my harness or relays. But as far as the Nelson harness and the LS1FANS harnesses, I have seen quite a few people online who have had problems with the relays and/or the relay plugs melting. I have not seen anyone post about it in about the last year, so I honestly don't know if Nelson has resolved the overheating problems or not.

@ScottyBoy, do you know the purpose of the diodes on the factory harness. I've seen you run the factory harness for years with no issues and wondered if the diodes helped.

Out of curiosity, how long did it take you to pull the parts off?

Mine took a little longer cause of the corrosion form the winters. But in places like Texas and az should come apart pretty easily.

So I got a new display. Think it will fit my dashboard?


Actually, I replaced my 8 year old 720p 32" TV, with a 55" 4K TV that was half off (was an after game day return).

I heard there's one guy in my village who does have cable hooked up in his igloo. I'd check it out but it's like a 50 mile sled dog trip

Fans just came in.

Did you use Vitron seals or the stockers? And what method did you use to keep the valves up?

I went with the viton seals. I brought each cylinder up to TDC and used the spark plug end of my compression tester hooked up to my air compressor.
