    Engine Paint Color Question

    Maybe this belongs in either Engine or Exterior subforums, but just wondering what the engine color would have been for a 1983 GMC 350 V8? Truck's engine is a replacement but I want to paint it as original before putting it back into the truck. Thanks!

    TH400 Direct Drum/Sprag Question

    I was installing the boost valve kit over the weekend and cut one of the O-rings. Called Sonnax and got a part number that I can't seem to find anywhere...do you know the size of the O-ring? I figure the O-ring isn't anything special and local hydraulics shop should have a replacement. I assume...

    TH400 Direct Drum/Sprag Question

    Not likely, fairly stock 350 doing some towing and highway driving. The explanation in that video about venting the extra fluid from the dual feed made sense so wanted to check.. Thanks for the info.

    TH400 Direct Drum/Sprag Question

    Thanks...was watching this one earlier and saw mention of not using the seals, I think your next one in the series showed the plug getting installed in the port, but I've not come across the feed orifice procedure. I found someone else's video online that showed drilling a small hole in the...

    TH400 Direct Drum/Sprag Question

    Finally getting back to the TH400 project. Is this the type of 3/8" cup plug needed for doing the dual feed conversion? Also, I wasn't able to find a video on your YT channel that described TH400 or 3L80e dual feed conversion, I didn't see it mentioned in PT3...can you point me to the right...

    Power Window and Door Lock Setup

    Power window and door lock parts removed from a 1985 Chevy Silverado. Complete except for Power lock relay, but will include a relay that would work. Window regulator motors and door lock solenoids all work. Insulation for wires in door hinge areas is a little brittle but don't think any are cut...

    TH400 Direct Drum/Sprag Question

    In your YouTube video, are you still using the TH400 case bushing? The 4L80E front pump bushings appear to be without any notches or channels. Also, when inspecting the friction clutch discs, is there a minimum thickness after which they should be replaced or is it best just to replace them...

    TH400 Direct Drum/Sprag Question

    Shoot...I've already got a new TH400 case bushing that I was going to use before it was suggested to rollerize the rear bearing. Is it still possible to use the TH400 bushing and still seat it further into the case to help center the TH350 pump bearing? I'll have to see about finding the K-M...

    TH400 Direct Drum/Sprag Question

    Hello folks, I'm in the process of rebuilding a TH400 transmission for my 1983 K20 4x4 project. It's a 1987 TH400 which will have the roller-type sprag. It's going behind a nothing-special 350 V8 to be used for hauling and towing, such as a stock trailer and farm wagons, so wondering if I should...

    4x4 Stabilizer Bar Bushing Install

    Hello folks, can someone describe the best way to install new OEM rubber bushings into the stabilizer bar ends for a 4x4? I've called around a couple of the shops in my area but neither could help. Is there a way to press them in that won't destroy the rubber? Thanks for the help.

    Rear Shackle Bushing - Replaceable?

    Is the rubber/metal bushing that attaches the rear spring shackle to the frame support replaceable? It appears to be a smaller size than the 1.5 inch diameter bushing that goes in the rear spring eye. Do I have to buy the shackle assembly to replace the bushing? Shackles look good and not rusted...
