    What have you done to your square lately??

    Yes he pressure testedit 3 tines. It wasn't leaking until I took it for a spin. I think the vibration opened another leak. I let it get to temperature in the driveway and then took it for a short drive and got back to a leak. Idk

    What have you done to your square lately??

    Yeah I think the fan shroud is the culprit because it was the closest thing I could find to fit. Still had to cut it to git and it don't fit well. Think I'll just go with no shroud or electric fans. Fans would be better when sitting in traffic in Texas heat. I'm just mad because I thought I'd...

    What have you done to your square lately??

    Put the repaired radiator in and drove it around the block and it is leaking again! I didn't even look much at it and shut it off and came in as it's started raining. Fck me! I'm probably gonna send it to my mechanic and tell him to put in a new aluminum one with electric fans. I'm done trying...

    I don't remember what thread it was that someone had asked about led cab lights. I've got both white and amber and they work well. Here's the light number and what it looks like.

    Got it back and here's the seem on the tank he fixed. Bigger than I thought and on opposite side than I thought too. It was dripping from the bottom of the drivers side of it. Lol He said he could do a full rebuild with new tanks for 125. I wish I had some junkyards that had squares I'd go pull...

    Guy just called and my radiator is fixed. I'll be picking it up after work for 65 bucks. Seem on the side tank at bottom cracked. I'm super happy now I don't have to buy a new one.

    Mine are different on the 82. That's why I was wondering. That'll work. Mine bolt on top and go straight over the top of the shroud to hold it on.

    How'd you get it mounted to core support? It looks too short to use stock top mounts. That's the only problem I've seen with the aftermarket aluminum radiator. I'm having my old one repaired to see if that will work. Looks good tho.

    Mine has been needing attention fir a long time. The old rubber ones were just that old and two were missing. And these are made of a better material. I don't know how to describe it except it's soft but firm and it's not rubber.

    Alloy works radiators

    Has anyone ever bought one of their radiators? Price seems good too. Seems to be easy to install and comes with everything you need. Will the 3 row be enough to cool my 454 or should I go 4 row? The only thing it's quite a bit longer than the 3 row. Any input would be appreciated...

    1973 k20 project. Should I buy brand new 454 bb? or rebuild my 402bb?

    Facebook market place can be your friend. I was able to find a Gen V 4 bolt main 454 with cam Lt hedders and intake with 30k miles for 2k. You'll definitely love the power of the 454. Put a 3.73 gm Trutrac 8.5 10 bolt posi rear end in too. It's fun to drive. So my vote is 454. You won't be...

    What have you done to your square lately??

    Fired it up yesterday and sadly the radiator I switched out was leaking. Wtf! So both have leaks. Guess I'm just gonna go ahead and put in a new aluminum one with electric fans. Was hoping this one would work but oh well. It's really the only thing holding me back from driving it more. Any...
