it ain't that I'm too big to listen to the rumors, It's just that I'm too damn big to pay attention to 'em..That's the difference
FWIW, my 2004 has all same length head bolts. Build date shows April 2004. I have an extra set of flex fuel injectors (36 lb) with connectors from a 2005 Tahoe if interested.

Hmmmm. I have wondered why the larger spray "36 lb" offered for the flex fuel as apposed to the 24 lb for standard gas?
Duct_tape123:
I might be interested (injectors). This is a simple question but maybe you can help. Along w/ my ? above what were the inherent characteristics of the flex fuel injectors (I haven't and don't plan on using flex fuel anytime in the near future). For my daily driver @ 400 + hp (building the recipe: super Chevy modern mouse article w/ stock intake). I believe 36 lb to 42 lb would be fine. I also believe I need to update the fuel system. with what i know so far will include fuel pump - adjustable regulator and gauge if needed (to adjust the pressure as needed. With the adjustment capability I can stay w/ an efficient slightly smaller injector and push the psi to get an efficient burn. "at-least that's what I think will work"
I am cautiously treading into new territory for myself.
I can't remember the exact definition, but it takes about 33% more ethanol to provide the same power as gas, and that's why the injectors flow more. They are a cheap upgrade if you're out of fuel with a heads/cam setup.

If anyone checks this out anymore I would like to redirect the question?
Is it recommended to install engine oil cooler lines to the radiator engine cooler bungs? I have lines in place w/ the old 5.7 and through my research so far the Gen 111 motors have larger cooling ducts in the block keeping the engine cooler. Have looked through the net and this site looking for pros and cons and cant find anything. What do you say?
