Vortec Big Block 7.4 Injectors and Regulator: curing a hard start & 600hp worth of fuel

Рет қаралды 77,214

Күн бұрын

My K2500 Suburban is powered by a vortec big block, aka 7.4 vortec, or L29. Probably one of the most common problems with the 7.4 vortec is a hard start condition caused by leaking fuel injectors and the fuel pressure regulator. In this video I'll replace the faulty parts with new, but instead of just using stock parts, we're increasing the capacity of the injectors by almost double. I'm using some FAST injectors and an OEM fuel pressure regulator, and HP Tuners to make the adjustments inside the computer.

Awesome stuff for the K2500 LT, I’m Used to using those exact injectors on VW/Audi Tuning for 1.8 2.0 turbo motors, easy to find as well flow matched and tested. I always liked the spray pattern and fuel pressure regulator options, push in clip style, to bump up or drop flow. Another great option were the Rochesters for this truck, I’ve played with both. Keep up the great work, with your Performance Shop, I like your full spectrum builds from Fabrication to Tuning, Few guys like that out there. 👍🏽⚙️🏁🛠🔥💰

I grew up in the 90s and have always had an affinity for the OBS Chevy trucks. My first vehicle was a 98 K2500 with the 7.4. I loved that truck but just didn't have the money to keep it running. In 2017 I picked up another 98, this one is a K1500 5.7 that I'm almost done swapping to 6.0 with some power adders. I'm hoping for around 500 crank HP. Keep up the videos, it's awesome to see the truck evolve.

It has the same engine so I'm sure I can go find some more great videos. Thanks for sharing.

Also I was able to remove the intake (top) without removing the AC compressor. I did this by removing the top side to side instead of front to back. Nice video.

i replaced my 7.4l injectors at 120k miles. then did a sensor replacement campaign. I sold when it had 140k miles. when it was resold 2 years later it was sold as having the motor been rebuilt. Yes, it ran that smooth..... I found that there was a slight increase in power but also a slight decrease in fuel mileage. I found that mid grade fuel seems to get the best power and mileage and keep the injectors clean. After installing the new ones I started using seafoam to keep the in clean condition.

Those clips are a pain but I do something similar by moving the tabs up incrementally. I also like to change the cam sensor in the distributor since the distributor is out and you did the good cap & rotor too. The upper intake manifold gasket tends to leak so the injector repair will fix this. The ignition control module gets cooked on the back of the intake, so I like to replace that as well. A straighter intake tube into the throttle body and a mild .500 lift cam will wake up the vortec.

I know you are busy with trans problems lately, but your vids on the burb 7.4/0411 swap have been huge for me. I have a 97 k3500 L29 with high miles, so I started an upgrade by buying a complete 99 L29. I have ported the heads (290 cfm on intakes), port matched the manifold, had the stock cam reground for more lift, duration, and a tighter lobe separation angle, bought everything for an adjustable valvetrain, and a pair of stainless headers. I don't have injectors picked out yet. Someone recommended L67 injectors (supercharged 3800, 43 lb/hr). When I put in the new engine, I'm doing the 0411 swap with an 01 van L31 tune already in. From there I will follow your examples and dial it in. I'm afraid the stock MAF and throttle body will become limiting factors though. Do you know anything about the 0411 operating in speed density mode? That would let me eliminate the MAF, and even enable a real intake and throttle body, the Edelbrock efi Victor Jr.

I am having hard starts. I tested the fuel pressure. The pump primes it fine to the valve. When I shut it off it loses pressure pretty fast. Funny thing with mine, if I let the truck sit for 2 days or longer, it starts up so fast. If I'm driving it and it sits around 10 mins or longer, it will be a super long start. So not sure how that equates in the leak down issue. Sitting long periods of time, starting is not an issue.

Hey man I have a 454 with an issue starts. runs for a second or two. Then dies. No security light. Is there a way to bypass this problem. The truck ran fine before. Have tried everything if you're familiar with this issue

I've got a 2000 7.4 454. I'm having lean condition. My fuel pressure is between 45 and 50(steady). I cannot find the factory specs but my mechanic is saying that is normal. Google says it needs to be between 55-62. I want to do this swap on my truck some day.

Is your new regulator set to 43 psi ? And if so where did you get it at ? Thanks Andre

I have a 99 that needs injectors and fuel pressure regulator. If I were to put factory style bosch 19 lb injectors in would I have to program them?

@LawrenceTolman 3 жыл бұрын

nope, as long as you use a stock sized injector you will be good to go without any programming needed

Hello, thanks for you vid and education. How much force should be applied while trying to extract injectors? I seem to be forceful enough I scared of breaking something??

@LawrenceTolman Жыл бұрын

they can get stuck in the intake as dirt and gunk builds up around the injectors. I find a little WD40 or similar sprayed around the bases can help, and from there just constant pressure and wiggling around usually get em out, but sometimes prying is necessary... just be careful though because you don't want to snap or break anything important like the fuel rail

@@LawrenceTolman thx again but I took them out yesterday with patience and all came out easy. Two o rings stayed with rail but came out easy with pick.

Does the 0411 support an e85 sensor at all?

I have a 2000 chevy 454. Runs and idles great most of the time, occasionally however, whenever I need to get on it from a dig or need to accelerate while towing in 4th gear, the truck will stutter, almost like it's getting too much or too little of something. Does anyone have an idea about what this could be?
