    Bright headlights?

    The upgrade harness doesn't completely bypass your headlight switch, it just uses relays so the power to the headlights isn't going through your switch. You pull out the headlight switch, which turns on the relay, which turns on your headlights. That's how newer vehicles are.

    Bright headlights?

    The 4x6 are correct for yours. That's what I used in my old '86 and they were the same size. Just a note, you'll have to cut out the opening in the back of the headlight bucket a little for the back of the new light to fit through. Sent from my iPhone 4s using Tapatalk

    That's nice! I love 60's cars. I never knew that Canadian Pontiacs came with Chevy engines. That's interesting.

    How To Refurbish Your Dashpad

    I really appreciate your comments and thanks for not laughing at me. I've looked at tons of dash repairs and none of the finished products quite had the look I wanted, so I figured I might as well take a swing at it. Honestly, I expected it to turn out like crap. I just have several parts...

    How To Refurbish Your Dashpad

    :pedobear: Haha, well if that's the case you may need to find a slightly better one at a junkyard.

    How To Refurbish Your Dashpad

    That's a nice dash pad? The steps are the same whether you have 1 crack or 50. This obviously won't work if half your dash is rotted away or something...

    Bright headlights?

    Those were just the el cheapo bulbs that came with the headlights. I replaced them with Sylvania Silverstars which are...blue tinted. The light output is about 1,000 times what the factory sealed beams were so I don't care what color they are.

    Vent Glass Seals - DIY

    Awesome write-up! I have been wondering how to do this and if I could tackle it. My vent window seals are shot.

    Bright headlights?

    You can buy a universal headlight harness off eBay that has relays in it and is great for upgrading to newer style headlights. You can also get newer style headlights off eBay that take an H4 bulb, which gives you a bunch of options as far as bulbs. That's what I did.

    How To Refurbish Your Dashpad

    This isn't show quality, but I think it turned out great for a daily driver. You'll probably be starting off with a dash that looks a lot like this. First, take a sharp knife and cut off all the curled up edges along the cracks. Cut back far enough to get into the vinyl that's still somewhat...

    Which radiator hose

    Yea, that same 2wd 454 fan shroud should work too. Although it might be a little more difficult to find...

    Newbie from DFW

    Welcome to GMSB! You'll have to get the casting number off the pad on drivers side of the back of the engine and then someone here can tell you what it is. Right behind the head. It's a bugger to get to and usually hidden underneath a bunch of oily dirt. I cleaned mine off the best I could and...

    Which radiator hose

    I was going to suggest a 2wd 454 hose as well. My local parts store will let me take a couple hoses at a time home and see if they fit and then buy the one that does. I've done it with belts too. You might see if one will do that for you.

    Bvllsh!t on craigslist.

    Hey Hotrod, maybe you can trade something with this guy for his engine. Or talk him out of it real cheap. Of course, he's still a ways away from you I guess http://www.nextechclassifieds.com/listings/view/689349/

    What have you done to your square lately??

    All thanks to your diagnostic chart up there. Got to step three and figured out the ground was bad and that's when I found the ground wire unhooked. :happy160: There's so many wires unhooked under the hood that I hadn't even noticed it before.
