What did you do to your NNBS GMT900 Tahoe/Yukon Today?

[Just Fishing]

Rebuilt my 6l80e valve body, installed transgo regulator valve, tcc valves, etc...

Topped off with a new separator plate, sonnax non shrinking check balls, and sonnax end plugs.

Rebuilt the tcm pressure switches, only found one about to give up the ghost.
Sonnax seal installer tool was worth every penny.

Had the truck on jackstands with the nose in the air for a few days...

Everything back together and back on the ground.

Got the truck nice and hot, fluid up to temp and then did the trans relearn procedure...

While it was doing its thing, i noticed my oil pressure was real low.

Hp tuners said 24psi at idle...

Been hearing ticking from the non afm side of the engine lately...

Looks like I'm doing an oil pump pickup o-ring today!!!

Yay!

So, just having a massive intake volume and plenty of exhaust flow will put one of these heavy mofos in the low 14s-high 13s... Wow. How does it feel off the line, even with regular street driving?

Its all in the tune and gearing. Its a fu@kin blast to drive.

I have the motor and trans tuned at LMP in Baltimore. I also regeared from 3.08 up to 3.73, that made a huge difference/improvement by itself.

So last weekend I did some things:

1) AFM / VVT delete
2) TSP Stage 3 Hi lift 5.3 cam
3) 225 heads
4) GM LSA oil pump, new water pump, LS3 front cover and valley cover, Katech Racing C5R timing chain, every APR bolt made for an LS
5) Michigan Motorsports 5/16" 7.400 pushrods and New OEM rockers with the trunion upgrade
6) Improved Engineering oil pick up clamp

Tuned at LMP this past Tuesday, 360rwhp but ran out of injector. Injector duty cycle was 85-87% on pump and maxed out on E85. My tuner loaded a safe tune til I get some bigger injectors.....hoping to break 400 rwhp then.

I just ordered some Esky 6.2 injectors where they are OEM 52# and a Circle D 278mm 11" converter with the billet front cover option (3000-3200 Stall)

Once I get the converter, injectors and tune refreshed........its going to be a ****** street beast. Should be low 13's .........maybe a 12.99

I'll post some pics up later today

Any weight reduction?

What's the weight?

400rwhp on a 5000+lb vehicle isn't getting into the low 13's/high 12's

At least not at the track

It’s a ppv and on top of that he ripped a lot of weight out of it iirc.

Pretty sure I got everything for the oil pickup o-ring job.

Pickup O-ring: Check!
Pan gasket: Check!
Oil cooler gasket: Check!
(assuming here that it's connected to the pan, if not then "while I'm in there why the f not")

Braved walmart and picked up a couple jugs of M1 5W30: Check
Oil Filter: Check


Truck has 0 oil leaks...
Here is hoping it stays that way.


Energy/motivation to do the job: Pending

Trimmed off the clip's and the tabs of the bracket for front fascias lip. I think it look's better without it [emoji2373]. Also put my new headlights in. I need the fogs now.

That's why I asked what the weight is.
@iamdub would probably like to know also.

The oil cooler or block-off plate is on the oil pan.

Did you get or do you have high temp, oil/gas resistant RTV for the four points where the front and rear covers meet the oil pan? I use Permatex black.
