Hotrod, I was told I should run this one by you. I have a 1991 1/2 ton 2WD 5.7L with a 700r4 trans that will start up and run great, until you put it into any gear position other then P or N. There aren't any codes and the motor is truly running great, revs fine, just immediately dies when put into gear. I replaced the Torque converter control solenoid and the fluid and filter, no change. The TCC on my truck is the 2 wire, not the single. Any idea's what could be going on? To me it seems like the torque converter is locked up.

Been gathering parts for my truck, I took it to mind what you guys said, and I decided to leave the body alone. I cant really afford to get another truck unless its pre like, '60 cause the DMV KILLS me in prices. I havent been on as much because I been busy with school and trying to figure out why I'm still getting a parasitic drain in my truck. Also I been rebuilding an NP435 and a Borg-Warner ( I think its a T-18 but there are casting numbers in there that say T-98) so I been pretty busy haha at least for my age. I got a free Dana 70HD too

Ok, The cartech books are better than the hp books. More how to info in step by step pictures. The newer HP Books are just reprints from the ones in the 70's. Is the vortec engines classfied as a LS? What gen is a vortec if not a ls?

How do I wire up a push button switch for working under the hood? Doesnt have to really start but just turn the engine over for like checking for spark.

I think lost out on good deal cause I no hoist to get the engine on a truck. 35min drive away 89 350tbi with slight rod bearing knock, 2 700r4 with no drive gear 4x4, and 350 turbo with no gears. All for 150 bucks.

Do you have liftgate for your e350? I probably have for sale in the future. It weighs like 500 pounds. takes 2 people to lift it. I'll be getting it along with a heavy duty steel snow plow later on.

Yeah... Happy Birthday Hotrod.
And thanks for sharing your knowledge!

It has hemi info from the 60's and 70's
