You'll end up returning them. I threw on a "great" set of leds maybe 2 years ago. They were definitely much brighter but only to about 15 feet infront of the truck. They lack distance. Huge no for me. Bought some ss3 fogs instead and havent looked back
I had a similar experience with a set from "Headlight Experts". Paid a premium to get what I thought was the best and they were great for low beam and worthless for high beam, no matter how I adjusted them. Lasted less than 2 years, to boot. Went back to regular long life bulbs and haven't looked back.

This is exactly why I just can’t commit to the LED headlights.

this is the one you want, bought mine in 2019, price has gone up about $30 and they take 6-8 weeks or longer to build and ship.
or you could go with a GM GENUINE 84143539
gm started making them like the mechman design with pressed diodes
it's actually for a k2xx 2500 but it will fit and work and is about $100 less than the mechman and is only 30amp's less
Thanks pal!
Does your MechMan run a smaller than stock pulley?

I thought I remember hearing that the k2xx were swappable, but the highest I saw was 170amp.

Finally got the new Remy starter installed in the 2007. Easy job with the fender liner out. I got lucky and was able to remove the heat shroud on the exhaust manifold without breaking any bolts. One was already broken previously, but the others came out with no trouble. Luckyyyy! As I look at this photo now though, I realize I need to install the heat shield on top of the solenoid.

I think my starter is rapidly going bad. I have new dual batteries and a brand new alternator. It acts like there's a dead spot, like the starter starts out fast but the dogs like there's no power to it. Mine is original... I know I should've replaced it when I replaced the engine.

I found factory one on summit, but the fitment says for Camaro with 6.2 and G8 with 6.0 or 6.2. Why would it not fit my 6.2? Here's a picture with the P/N. I'm thinking this one will work

What is that black vertical pipe or hose just to the right of the starter in this pic? Also, what's the sensor to the right of that?
