    Finding Serpentine Belt Lengths

    I have an original AC Delco serpentine belt kit for my motor but with all the customizing, etc. its too short. I ran a cloth measuring tape on the pulleys and found it to be almost 4" longer than the 'original' (this with the tensioner fully retracted). Question I have is: do you measure the...

    What new tools have you got lately?

    Built one of these setups - some have probably seen it online. FWIW...any vids you see on this setup, pay no attention to their measurements as your shop vac is probably different. Idea is the dust 'cyclone' swirls the debris around, with air being light - it passes on while the particles drop...

    What new tools have you got lately?

    Local hardware still carries Irwin (USA) taps and thread dies. I buy them 1-2 at a time. They hold up quite well. Like most of everything they sell, the HF junk I dont even consider.

    Ignition Resistance Wire-Needed or Nah

    You fellas know more about it than me, but I'm a huge fan of relays and surprised they aren't discussed more with trucks that had few to none - especially after we mod them. I worked on cars for years that loved to dump 2-3 25A+ circuits on a single 30A relay and then talk about its...

    Header Gaskets

    So I call Summit - they ask me what I'm working on. I tell them I'm looking to buy a decent set of header gaskets for a SBC. Before I can tell them the PN I looked up, guy suggests....Remflex. lol So I ordered the Remflex header and collector gaskets yesterday. They are out for delivery today...

    Header Gaskets

    Got ready to install my headers and realized the gaskets I had were some cheap fiber ones that came with the headers. Was wondering what you fellas used that worked. Fel-pro? Copper? etc. I have Edelbrock E-Tec (vortec style) heads and anything I saw that looked interesting never mentioned...

    What brake lines to get for lifted c10

    Found them. Here's what I ordered: https://www.inlinetube.com/products/ct1018 I used the rear line but the fronts were too long. They are braided stainless and measure 25" long. If you have any use for them, shoot me an offer.

    factory bumper carriage bolts?

    I went to the hardware and got the same looking carriage bolts only in stainless. Then I polished the heads on a wheel into a mirror like reflection. I think they look better than the bumper (currently). lol

    What brake lines to get for lifted c10

    I got a set from Inline Tube - was for a 4-6" lift and too long for my use.

    What are you using to paint wing window frames

    I'd go with a satin - had mine powder coated (satin black).

    What have you done to your square lately??

    Messing with peripherals until its warm enough out to paint. Finally got all the new parking brake cables installed. Once in, they rubbed against one of my rear sway brackets, so modded a couple of insulated cable straps and made it so the cables wont touch anything. Next up is finishing the...
