    Our new 1980 GMC C35 with 6780mi.

    I bought a long block from a member on another forum. Included were a cam, k-kit, and lots of other goodies still in the box.

    NV4500 4x4 Swapped Suburban shifter boot and bezel

    I don't have a pic handy, but I've seen a custom metal cover that incorporated both boots. Looked pretty decent. BTW, what forum were you looking at?

    400 SBC Build - Tight Budget

    I believe so. I want to build a destroked 350, I have a modified TPI unit I've been collecting parts for since '94. Should do a bit better than the 4500 rpm a 350 tpi chokes out at.

    Cab light question

    Bought these for my 90 3/4 ton 'burb. It sits higher than the 4x4 burb. Use to drive big rigs, just something about having that light in the dark is just comforting to me. Like the clacking of an old 6.2 dizzel lol. Puts me right to sleep. Should use that to replace my white noise machine..

    rear A/C lines for 1978 Suburban K20

    I'm making new ones for my burb. I salvaged a rear ac unit from an old burb I had, but the long lines were shot.

    6.2 For A Daily Driver? What Are The Downsides?

    The Sanitary is in downtown Morehead City. I don't recall anything about Godwin MFG, must have been someone else. Loved riding my bike down 101. Nice ride... Also enjoyed riding all the way to the Cedar Island ferry. Just stay away from the grass. The flies and mosquitoes are horrible!

    6.2 For A Daily Driver? What Are The Downsides?

    Get those articles prepped injection pumps if you come across one. They have hardened innards, suppose to last much longer. The CUCV pickups were all 1 ton. The were a bargain when the were first released as surplus.

    6.2 For A Daily Driver? What Are The Downsides?

    Nothing apparently wrong to me... All you need is 12v to the IP and to the starter to run it.

    6.2 For A Daily Driver? What Are The Downsides?

    Thats Dave from CK5.com He's done an amazing job with it. His Dad bought it new way back. He just recently put a new Optimizer 6.5 in it. I have a 6.2 diesel burb. Like they day, it's no powerhouse. Finally accumulated parts for a Banks Sidewinder install. Lost the damn turbo manifold when we...

    400 SBC Build - Tight Budget

    just make sure the heads have steam holes. My 79 K5 has a 400 with 80k original miles on it. It runs great, but needs mo' power!!! Plan on throwing on a decent set of heads and a retro roller cam. The stock heads have huge combustion chambers. A 64 cc head on mine should put the compression...

    Looking for recomendations for transmission change

    If your 350 has held up good and not exploded from horsepower, a WELL BUILT 700r4 is a good choice. It's a bit longer than a 350, so driveshaft(s) mods may be necessary. A 700r4 is basically a 350 with overdrive.

    New Member From Spain

    Dad and I caught a lot of fish on that long pier on the base. I wonder if it's still there... Dad was mainly a bass fisherman. We caught a lot of blues there. Dad made the mistake of grabbing the lower jaw of one, like a bass to remove the hook. The blue bit down on his thumb with its mouth full...

    Rebuild 1406 vs upgrade to 650cfm (Edelbrock)

    Check the float level. It's kinda a bigger deal.

    Dads old favorite dealer. This use to be their truck center in the 70s. Dad and I spent many hours there just shooting the breeze with guys and looking at trucks, "designing" our favorites. Lol Good times....
