I have a 99 1500 4x4 ext. cab w/ a 5.0litre, I need to replace the gasket, I have done this on my wife's Honda Accord EX but never on my truck. Can anyone help me with some do's and don'ts or as much information as I can get for that matter. Thanks to anyone who can help.

 

Early or late 99?

 

Late model, old body style, but has the 5.0 Vortec

 

Also do you know how difficult it is to add turbo. This truck is in mint condition, perfect inside and out but looks stock I want to of course start on the exterior but would like to change the rear end and get some more ***** out of this engine. I have searched everywhere for good prices on exterior items to spruce it up but **** they are expensive around here and as far as engine performance I have a hypertech system installed but if you talk w folks around here (mostly just us farm boys) all they care about is that the trucks run. I could use some advice on performance, as it looks like your truck has been modified very nice.

 

better do some research first...you qwon't be able to set the timing without a scanner...either pay a qualified shop,or do it yourself then take it to a shop to get the timing set
