    81 Chevy/GMC 2WD Long Bed Frame

    I think I might. Someone had to call and complain to the city for them to come out and write me a notice. They say is for environmental reasons, that rain washes rust in the ground, oil leaks etc. BS. The vehicles don't have any oil in them, other than the diffs, and only the one that burnt is...

    Battery

    Yep, I have said the exact same thing before. One of the very few things I'll buy at Autozone. I've bought 2 so far for 2 differant vehicles, and they are still working fine one of them is at least 4 years old, and other is close to 6 and its in a vehicle that sits for 4 months, and still cranks...

    HELP where is the cheapest replacement spider conversion assy for a 98 4.3 vortec?

    I thought they did it some other way, and the spider is the conversion. That was my understanding anyway. Unlike the SBC SFI that is spider from the factory, the 4.3 was not, so I thought. Damn, whats that makes what now? I've been wrong like 3 times now???? Shit !!! Won't be walking on...

    81 Chevy/GMC 2WD Long Bed Frame

    If I cut it up in small enough pieces it might. I am hoping to avoid having to cut it up. My buddy has a trailer, if its not loaded, I am sure I can use it to take it to the scrap yard. I just hate to throw away pefectly good stuff so if someone can use it..... I'd keep it if the city wasn't on...

    HELP where is the cheapest replacement spider conversion assy for a 98 4.3 vortec?

    It doesn't use a spider assembly now does it Pops??? I am thinking that 6 legged spider is about $300 or so according what I was told. But that replaces all of injectors too.

    Dodge Dealer honors disputed eBay Challenger auction and then some

    Ebay doesn't take responsibility for shit. And they have their little disclaimers already to go, when you send them an email telling them they screwed up. I have had losses on stuff before, because most good stuff will get bids in the last 5 minutes. I have had 4 items end one time when there...

    Need a motor

    All I have ever heard about Jasper is good things, great product, great builds, good warrranty etc, but according to their prices, you sure pay for it. Not just a little more than other places, seemed to me alot more than other places.

    Dodge Dealer honors disputed eBay Challenger auction and then some

    True, he did get the 2010 upgrade, but I just wonder if they helped themselves too by doing that. There has probably been a price drop from the manufacture to the dealers for the 2010 models.

    5.7 TBI-Vortec build

    Yeah, in that case usually better. I haven't bought a new lawn mower in I don't know how many years. The bad thing about knowing how to fix about anything is you get bugged alot, but the good thing is, people will give you stuff that has very minor stuff wrong, like needing a carb clean from not...

    Need a motor

    Sure wish I could make a suggestion McD, but not sure who is good on those Ford Mod motors, but it if makes you feel any better, I think you have the right idea. Are you going to be looking for a used motor or a new crate? Just be sure you get a reputable builder and check references if...

    5.7 TBI-Vortec build

    New Lawnmower?? New Engine?? WTH you gonna blow up next?? Slow but sure is best way to go on the engine build. No sense in trying to break a speed record in doing engines. I am slow at both engines and transmisisons. On purpose though. I am usually quick at whatever I do, but I downshift a...

    Any reason this alternator would not fit in my truck?

    I finally wathed the video GMC, cool stuff for those interested in doing such a thing. I have repaired a few of the older style, that were non internal voltage regular, and some that were internal, but they were older also, like late 70's mid 80's. Not hard at all. Also put brushes in starters...

    Any reason this alternator would not fit in my truck?

    Bernie just did this upgrade on his truck. He had a couple minor issues with the conversion. I'd hit him up in PM and get the scoop from him. He did have to do some wire changing too.

    66chevystepside-the rebuild

    NO, I do not beleive so on the hot from the Volt reg. No its not rocket science, but its likely a one time deal. You get it right the first time, or you fry the regulator. So how many regulators do you want to buy for trial and error?? Or, you may wish to consider converting to the 1 wire...

    5.7 TBI-Vortec build

    How are you coming on this Ducky?? Have you dropped the heads off with Burt yet??? You haven't scratched my engine stand have you??? NO hurry for it yet. I haven't even built the transmission for the K10 yet. Worse case scenario, I'll have to take the other SBC 350 off of my other stand and buld...

    More questions..with pics

    I'll be the 10, 20 or 30x whatver it is to say, leave the tailgate for sure. For that year of truck, its pretty damn clean and still have the original appearance. I'd leave it that way. Thats just me though. I like to see orginals that are in worthy shape, stay original. If you want to customize...

    Turbo 400 Build

    Thanks, 66Nova. I been gonna get with you. My SIL and daughter are building, or should I say trying, to build a 67 Nova right now. No spray, just a mild 350 and he wants to keep the original Powerslip trans. Still have original rear end too. But when after I talk to him again, and find what he...

    Mystery trans

    Thanks for the update CSR93. Did you by chance have the driveshaft balanced with the front piece swap? Probably not a bad idea to do so. If you notice any roughness or vibrations, its likely the driveline out of balance if you did not have it balanced. Good Luck, hope it all works out well.

    Turbo 400 Build

    Send me an output shaft for a 4x4 700r4, and I have 3 cores sitting here ready to build but they are 2 be fo transmissions, so I'll have to swap out the output shaft to make it a 4x4 trans. I need the output shaft for my 85 K 10 build. I've got everything else. Just have to assemble the engine...

    Turbo 400 Build

    Being it was a 68, you had the good sprag in it. Might not have been so lucky if it were the roller sprag. Maybe though. The roller sprag is not all that bad, its just the dogbone sprag is better and tolerate more abuse, especially the 34 element one that I upgraded this to.
