    Post up a good pic of your plugs ground straps and we wil let you know if you need more timing or not. As for the TM I think Allen sets it to pull down to 8-10 advance during shifts (this is for non built trannys). This is not bad considering stock retards it like 13 duruing the shifts.

    not sure on that. since im a chrysler dealer, i called my gm dealer, (we go thru the same guy in wholesale for the past 4 years) and explained that i heard the trailblazer was a good upgrade for a mild truck. he was familiar with my situation, rattled off a gm part # and said it came from a inline 5. i told him i thought it was the tbss convertor. he said it wouldnt stall any higher than a stock verter, but the one from an inline 5 would stall about 2600 behind a mild 5.3 or stock 6.0. i ordered it, came in a gm box brand new. installed it and now i can spin the holly sh#t out of my tires. great upgrade for the money. gm # is 24228708. if any of you guys work at a gm dealer, maybe you can plug in this number and see what exactly it fits to clear up this dispute.

    $226 from Gm PArts direct. Doenst say what its from. You want the TC from an iline 6 cylinder engine.

    The TBSS TC would actually stall lower than your stock TC.

    I use the V6 S10 TC in my truck and get 2700 rpm footstall speeds at WOT, rear tires NOT turning. Stock L31 stalls at around 1500 rpm at WOT.

    Nice gaisn in acceleration and much less rpm drop during WOT upshifts keeping my engine in its powerband instead of dropping below it. Same premise of the I-6 TC swap.

    peace

    Excuse me if I ask a stupid question. Will that stall work with a 4l60e tranny. I've got a cammed 5.3l with a few mods and I have the same problem being a dog off the line. How hard was the install?

    should get the same results i did. mine was in a 5.3 with a 4l60e as well. before the 6.0 swap. i did find out it is from a inline 5 trailblazer though not a inline 5. i stand corrected on this issue and aplogize for any bad info i gave out. hope noone was affected. i really like this convetor though works just as good with the 6.0, maybe couple hundred rpm higher stall with this, much torquier motor.......gene

    The 4200 (4.2) is a 6-cylinder engine. They were made from 2002 to now. The 5-cylinder engine in the Colorado/Canyon is/was 3.5L and the 4-cylinder is/was 2.8L. See the similarity? Each cylinder 700cc. The Trailblazer came with a 6 or an 8.

    The application is 2002+ S/T chassis with 4.2L engine. Full GM list is $387.78 + $100.00 core charge (may be able to skip that by turning in the old one).
