    Painted Emblems

    Looks great! What paint did you use for the gold? Almost looks like factory color

    Power brake filter? Can’t find one

    I always thought the filter was there to protect the engine. The engine is drawing vacuum, wouldn't it pull contaminants from the booster into the engine? Maybe a master cylinder leaking fluid into the booster? What would brake fluid do if sucked into a manifold?

    Loop Style Hood Latch Dimensions

    I have the mounting plate from LMC, so I don't need the diameter of the rod or the L dimension to the mounting bolts. The H dimension would be helpful, if you can give me the dimensions of the loop, front to back, and top to bottom that would be great!

    Loop Style Hood Latch Dimensions

    I guess Luke has first dibs, but if you don't hear from him I definitely want it! I'll shoot you some cash too. If nothing else, can you take some measurements of the loop? I know I can forge one out with a rose bud and round stock

    How a carbureted engine should start and run cold

    Everything is new except the MSD ignition and carb. Both came off this engine before the rebuild. It smells like it's running rich (gasoline odor), but the spark plugs look good, no sign it's burning rich. I've only been running it long enough to get to operating temp, so maybe the plugs aren't...

    Loop Style Hood Latch Dimensions

    Thanks for asking this. I'm in the same boat, have all the other pieces for inside hood release but that one. OER is the only company I know of that reproduces these, Classic Industries sells them, but they have been on back order for the last year! Like to get the front to back measurement of...

    How a carbureted engine should start and run cold

    My problems have been vast, and my engine tuning knowledge is low. This is the highest performance (mild) engine I have ever built. Trible knowledge for a 4WD truck is low RPM and higher torque, but I wanted something that would perform in the higher RPM range. My experience has been, with a...

    How a carbureted engine should start and run cold

    Wow, that is a well tuned truck. Wish I could get mine to start and idle like that. I like building engines, I'm just not great at tuning them

    Door handle install. Need a little guidance.

    That roll pin is hard enough to get back in when you have it on the work bench. I couldn't imagine trying to do it on the truck. The spring has always been my problem, trying to keep it in line while driving the roll pin back in. I use a long 90 degree pick to pull back on the attaching clip at...

    6.5" speaker mounting options

    I installed my 6" speakers in the doors close to the kick panels. It was easy to do but now I am regretting it! I went from crank up windows to power windows and found the motor hangs down to the middle of the speaker hole. Now my only options are to patch the hole or find or make some kind of...

    G80 Gear Oil?

    The Valvoline 80/90 is what I use in my 14 bolt FF with G80. I have never added any additive. Still works after 34 years I have had it

    Holy Grail of Squarebodys

    I can agree with everything but the F450 axles. Since 2002 I have had F450 and F550 work trucks, and a new one every 5 years. Every truck has had problems with the Dana axles. It is impossible to keep the alignment, even with brand new trucks, my 2021 has already been in for 2 alignments, I'm on...

    Glove box issue

    Use a small screwdriver to push in on this small tab. Cylinder then pulls straight out

    Can you change door glass with a broken power window motor?

    That's not entirely true Bucket, at least not with the power windows. You can remove the glass with the vent window in place. You have to have the window all the way up and remove the window channel. Use several pieces of painter's tape to hold the window up, and remove the regulator by removing...

    Rear Window Sliding Glass

    You say you rehabed your 4 panel? Did you replace the felt channels and seals? If so, where did you find them?

    Aluminum head thoughts

    I picked up a set of Summit 162111 heads. They are USA made, and I am very happy with the quality. I haven't put it on a dyno yet, but I can really feel the difference in the truck from the 186 double hump heads I replaced. Also went from a Comp magnum 230/480 to a slightly larger Howards roller...

    10 inch lift and 37 inch tires on 88 suburban

    I believe trucks should be high in the sky, not belly flopping on the ground, so I say go for it! I ran my truck for years with an 8" Superlift suspension kit, 2" body lift, and 39.5" Swampers. I believe if stability was a big issue, I wouldn't be here talking to you today. I did some really...

    78 K10 single to dual tank

    I have a factory harness, factory switch, and a brand new 3 port valve if you're interested. The valve has 5/16 hose fittings, but that shouldn't be a problem on a near stock work truck. Came out of a 78 K20

    PSA fuel switching valve solution

    That's good info, thanks Ron! I just finished installing a Painless harness and converted from my old one wire valve to the 80's motorized valve you have. My old valve would switch on the fly with no problem. I will have to see if my new valve and switch do what you described.

    SM465 / Clutch

    The clutch wouldn't be the problem. I once drove my truck home from a day of four wheeling without a clutch when the clutch rod broke. It's just a matter of getting the RPM right and jamming it in gear. I would try removing the PTO and see if that corrects the problem. Hopefully you have a spare...

    350 turbo with 203. I want to keep my 350 turbo and get a 205 behind it? Please help.

    I think the entire transfer case would be too expensive to ship. I know it would be too heavy for UPS. If you can find one locally and need the adapters, I can help you out

    350 turbo with 203. I want to keep my 350 turbo and get a 205 behind it? Please help.

    Weight of the adapter, sleeve, and NP205 input shaft is about 30 lbs, and will fit in a 12 x 10 x 8 box, so it can ship UPS. Not sure where you live, but you can look up Evansville IN to your location for the shipping cost

    350 turbo with 203. I want to keep my 350 turbo and get a 205 behind it? Please help.

    You will need to check the input spline on the transfer case. Most came from manual transmissions, 10 spline I think. Automatic I think is 27 spline. Do you already have an NP 205?

    350 turbo with 203. I want to keep my 350 turbo and get a 205 behind it? Please help.

    I have exactly what you need if you're interested. Adapter, splined coupler, even the 205 input shaft if you need it
