Re: Is this the new normal for parts.....ie Vortec dist. cap
Quote:
Basically every 5.7 Vortec has this problem? I want to replace my 1989 K1500 xcab "ranch truck" with a K/20 or K2500 single cab, manual/gas. Anywhere from 1973 to 2006, depending on price and condition.

I got to 200k with no issues either. At around 250k is when mine started. Now im at 260k. I will take out my distributor this weekend and take pics of the gear and see how the wear is.
