GM 4.3L V6 / 5.7L V8 - Fuel Spider Swap, SCPI to MPFI

Video of me swapping the fuel spider out of my 1999 vortec 4.3l after it failed. All the tools and tricks needed for the job are outlined in the video. 5/8'' Crows foot will be your best friend. here were the symptoms: Truck would start rough and require throttle to even out when warm. Would usually cold start fine. This lasted for about 6 months, then it got to where it would be so flooded it would run like shit and not even out. fuel pressure regulator was dumping fuel out of itself and into the upper intake; whenever the fuel pump turned off. I demonstrated this in the video with the plenum off and the injectors plugged in. please subscribe to help keep my channel growing If your have a pre-2003 4.3L I highly recommend you replace your poppets with the new multi port spider. Just about the best upgrade you could do. Changed the plugs and wires as well and now get 19mpg (up from 16 with the poppets). this video was a nightmare to edit (filmed back in august) and the audio from the camera doesn't sound right royalty free music tecknoaxe i think is how you spell his name......
