Thanks, that's a old pic and swampers definitely don't hold up well on the road I'm running KM2s now they ride much smoother.

Holleys work fine also with a few tricks.
Loop the bowl vents together with a breather hole at the highest point.
Spring loaded floats.
Both help to prevent fuel slosh....but nothings foolproof.

Just bought a 05 5.3 and 4x4 4l60e trans with t-case, it's got 90,000 miles on it. Needs a good cleaning and I just noticed the crank pulley has a chip on the edge,not sure if that's a big deal or not ill post pics tomorrow.
