Hey guys, I just picked up a 1996 chevy reg cab, short box Z71 for a work truck. It has the 5.7. Just wondering what to do for tune up or any mods anyone has done to this motor? It has 157k on it. Super clean no wet spots.

Plugs, wires, cap, rotor, oil and filter change.
Don't forget the tranny filter and fuid change. On my 90 I had shorty headers, SIDO exhaust, underdrive pulleys, chip, intake.
keep an extra cap/rotor in the truck...NOTORIOUS for going bad. Buddy has to do his like 3-4 times a year.
i had a 96 with the 5.7 for my first truck...loved the thing. like said, cap, rotor, wires, plugs. and a nelson tune
I have a 96 Suburban, Nelson tuned and it runs good.
Thanks guys. So the normal tune up. As for mods I want the Nelson tune, I have had several trucks tuned by him. This truck is just my work truck so ill prob just do intake exhaust and tune.
