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

[MadDogDelpho]

The Texas edition badges came in the mail today, but I'll have to wait until I go home this weekend to put them on.

your phone is reading my mind, about to do those, and the valve cover gaskets.

Reading my mind as well lol... i need to order intake manifold gasket and knock sensors

Know how to run the silicone when redoing the knock sensors? So they won't get corroded with antifreeze.

no, but I'm interested!

I've seen online you do kind of a horseshoe so that the opening is towards the cab, for each sensor.

Yes, something along those lines. Keeps the antifreeze from messing up your knock sensors. I highly recommend doing it. Very common issue with our trucks, or LS motors.

Where did you buy the wire and techflex?

I get my wire at Knukonceptz and my Techflex at wirecare.com

Hate to quote myself but the Northstar battery looks identical to my diehard platinum. It's been a good battery other than one side basically going dead lol. I'm charging it with a DC power engineering 270a alternator yet it still reads low on CCA. Anyone using these or other AGM battery with any luck?

Not sure why the gasket pic showed up...

It most likely is. Theres only three or four major battery brands in the US so all name brands and house brands will fall under those 3 or 4 companies. The only difference aside from looks is the grade of lead that is used. From everything I've heard, diehards one of the better brands out there. 880 cca is no slouch lol How old is your DieHard? Also theres always dual batteries if you really need more juice.

Braille makes some really high end (and light weight batteries) but its only a top post, unless you jump to their lithium ion battery and want to dump $2500 on a battery lol

I might email them and ask about creating a dual post battery 34/78 battery. All they really need to do is add a side post to the one in the link, I'm sure it cant be that hard and costly lol

I've had the battery about 6-7 years. I don't know when it went back since I've had my big 3 setup the entire time. It still cranks fine as long as the top ground post is connected, but I had it tested and was only showing 660cca. The voltage on the alternator is good and nothing tells me the amperage output is not what it should be. It hits 14.8 at startup and drops to 14.3 hot..it s a stud lol.

I'll look into getting the same one rebranded. It's been good to me and still looks new.

I would only consider the lithium if I were putting them in a boat.. a Lotta coin for a battery.

I'd only buy one for my camaro since Its going towards more of a track car. They have ones that put out just as much or more cranking amps as our batteries at only 9lbs!
