What have you done to your square lately??
maybe next time try a local automotive paint supplier. We've got one here in BFE KY that blew me away. They've got 10 times more selection than the parts stores in stock. I've been here for 22 years and went there last year for something. Kicking myself for money wasted. They even have a... -

LS Fuel Pressure
my recent "used" replacement LS it's acting a bit funny and have been thinking about how to troubleshoot it. I ordered a fitting to hook up to the fuel rail. Then I plan to hook up an oil sender to it (weld if needed to so it don't leak), then put a switch to the oil pressure gauge to switch...- Camar068

LS swap lost oil pressure
First things first, check your wiring to your gauges and sender (including grounds). Once known good, if you've not replaced the sender.....do that next. After that, get another gauge. Don't really see how this has gone to 2 pages. To verify flow (last resort), unscrew the plug below...- Camar068

Here's one for the Holley/Eddy debate...

What have you done to your square lately??
started looking at 2" filler necks for the bed to replace the F*rd (floating in a hole in the bed lol) filler neck. Any suggestions to flatten out the ribs around the hole in the bed? Be cool if there was some strong steel adapter you bolt up thru the hole and run an impact to flatten it out... -

Body work for 77 K20
UPDATE unless it's a large body part your not gonna save anything as he doesn't get out that way. You'd have to meet in the London, KY area. Still give him a call/text so you can compare online/shipping and his price to London, KY- Camar068

not sure how far he goes but his # is 859-324-5616, his name is Jeremy. Give him a holler during business hours. After one dealing with him, I just text him for pricing/delivery. Wouldn't surprise me one bit if he was out that way often. As for product, I've gotten floor panels n such...- Camar068

Rear diff vent tube
so over years of having a bad one....this could introduce water I would suspect? Thanks OP. [edit] well damn. Just thought of something. To fill the rear end with fluid, get a barb fitting to fit the fill hole, run a hose to fluid container, then pull a vaccum on the vent barb. Only work if...- Camar068

Offset Bed Washer Source
Agree with your frustration on the shipping. Another vendor had that same shipping for something that should have been around $12.....off my list of sources. Thanks for sharing. Good luck in your search- Camar068

Body work for 77 K20
sorry I didn't see this one sooner. Anyway, years back I found a guy on craigslist that deals with aftermarket body parts. His prices are about 5% more than online, but he delivers (meets you at a close common ground) for free. You'd be surprised, check craigslist to see whats in your area...- Camar068

Basic volt drop test
Correct. When wires get old corroded or just have a loose connection, you will have voltage drop across a wire/connection. Keep your reference (negative wire to the meter) at the battery (known good) and follow the ckt to the load and back to the positive. If you see a significant drop...- Camar068

Can I modify a window sweep with silicone?
dunno.....if it don't fit....think you'll be asking for trouble later. I'd send it back to get the right one. Thought is you don't want to dork with the window seals more than you have to. Get it right and done with so you can move on to the next issue and not worry about it. Just a thought
