new member with a 97 Tahoe with a 383 vortec - with some modifications...
Hello, been lurking around for a while, just found out the way to post :-) my intro
so, I have a 97 Tahoe (2 Door), with some modifications on the engine, transmission, axels, suspension & tires.
I live in the middle east, but I am a westerner, I use my Tahoe for camping trips & desert dunes crossing....good fun indeed.
I have been doing a lot of reading on the I Gen vortec EFI system and now managed to get Jet DST software.
So now, I am looking forward to learning some more and help others where I can.
