Re: Show lowered 88-98 trucks
Yes he will. Good point, as I forgot to mention it.

It is Impala SS rear disc. No E-brake. Working on a hydraulic parking brake just for short stops.

Re: Show lowered 88-98 trucks
Do you have a build thread somewhere? I'm wanting to install a t56 in my 97 Sierra and looking for advise.

I don't have a build thread. Wish I would have done one. I learned a lot from this site about the swap. http://www.gmtruckcentral.com/articles/t56.html I think for the small blocks it is a lot easier than for the big block. The hardest things to find were the clutch/brake pedal and a steering column for a manual. For my truck it definitely made it more drivable than it was with the TH400. Haven't been able to drive it a lot yet as I'm trying to solve a boost leak but I'm hoping I can get between 15-20mpg cruising with the new setup. Before it was 8mpg no matter how I drove it. |
