    They resemble shock mount bolts to me.

    84 K2500 292

    Nice looking Jimmy from the photo. I had a 292 in a 1968 C10 and a 250 in a 1981 C10. I didn't know they were still around in '84. Good luck with the truck!

    Replacing Rear Door Window Regulator and Rollers

    I like your idea. I am having the same problem on my 72 Olds Toronado except I can't even find the correct nylon rollers and guides. From what I've seen, a hydraulic press is the best way. Good luck!

    New seat bottom foam vs re-building existing?

    Yep. A guy up the road came by wanting to buy my truck. He said he does upholstery so I asked for a quote. $500 cash, I said do it! While the seat was out, I cleaned the floor pan, primered and painted it, new carpet and reupholstered seat, about $800 total. The upholsterer, Francisco, told me...

    New seat bottom foam vs re-building existing?

    My 2 cents. I recently had my seat reupholstered and debated the same thing, seat back as well. The guy that did mine said he'd just add some new foam where it was worn. The repair was as good as new to me. You can't tell it was repaired. He charged me $550 for the works, inspection of springs...

    Nasty Noise Coming From Flexplate/Converter area

    On my '79 Silverado K20 with a small block 400, the welded balance weight on the flex plate came loose and made a racket like you describe. I don't know if yours is externally balanced but it's one more thing to look at.

    It's always nice to hear from different people around the U.S. let alone around the world. Nice to see an old GM pickup in Europe.

    Bending Hood

    I've found any lubricant works, some are messier than others but the most important thing is to LUBE IT REGULARY. You can wipe off the excess. I lube the door and hood hinges at least 3 times a year. Where I live it attracts dust but I also hose off under the hood at least a couple times a year...

    Preformed hoses

    That's a crazy looking preformed fuel hose, good luck! If you're good with tube bending, make a metal one.

    Oil leak

    I can't see very well but put a mirror on the back end of the intake manifold and check that out. It may be running down. If you can, spray the area off with brakekleen and blow it real clean with compressed air, it will give you a better idea from where it's coming from.
