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

Cracked block...seriously! WTF, just finished rewiring stereo, installing new carpet, and custom AC lines.
I sent her to my buddy for engine R&R, just don't have the time and patience.

Any suggestions on new engine boosted under 5k?

Been researching short blocks, bc who knows what's inside and can be used. Seems Thompson has best price for a forged block at 800 hp!

Now hv to figure out if tranny will hold...another PITA!

Forged block? You must be going for big power!

I know you built that engine, where was the original block sourced from? and was it modified?

Forged internals...looking at an aluminum instead of iron, so it's not so bloody heavy

might look for a 6.0 from a hybrid. the whole trucks can be found cheap on market place over the afm failures or hybrid battery dying and not being worth fixing. both go out about the same time and makes its but really worth fixing one without replacing the other.

aluminum block, never been abused, enough bore to take either style head. has higher compression pistons, but you'll be using new pistons anyways.

seen them practically giving them away non running.

Th!nks, but probably going to end up buying a short block, most of the internals are probably toast...
Cheaper than parting out, machine work, building, etc. And I'm NOT doing it this time!
