    Is this a small block or big block engine?

    I was wondering if somebody could help me tell if this engine is a Chevy 350 like it's supposed to be or a big block engine. The only reason why I'm wondering is because the exhaust manifold bolts are very different than my 84 Chevy K10 with a 305. This engine is out of a 80 Chevy c30 truck and...

    Double hump heads worth it?

    What are my options if they don't have accessory holes? Can they be drilled and tapped? Or what do I do?

    Double hump heads worth it?

    The block is completely bare he said. I'll try and get a casting number. Am I looking for a particular casting number? What types of accessories attach right to the heads?

    Double hump heads worth it?

    I know some of you may have seen my posts about upgrading my gear ratio, or swapping in a 350 for my 305 engine. And I appreciate all the help. Now I have another question. Somebody is trying to trade me a 350 block with 2 sets of heads. This is all I know about the heads: The first set was...

    How hard is it to swap my 3.08 gears to 3.73 gears?

    Correct, it doesn't solve the front axle. Just the rear one. I would sit it back until I found a front axle for cheap. I wouldn't mind doing the work, I just don't know how to set all the backlash and everything.

    How hard is it to swap my 3.08 gears to 3.73 gears?

    I found a 1/2 ton axle out of a 92 for sale. So it should bolt right up? He's a good mechanic/guy. I just wanted to make sure I didn't get the "I don't want this job price"

    How hard is it to swap my 3.08 gears to 3.73 gears?

    Does anybody know the year range of axles that will fit My 84 K10? I found a 2000 Z71 Silverado with 3.73 gears. Can I swap over the axles?

    Any headers that fit perfectly on 84 K10?

    How hard is it to swap my 3.08 gears to 3.73 gears?

    The 305 has always felt so weak. I never knew the 3.08 gears were part of the problem. I'm all about saving gas money, but it's really destroying the driveability of the truck. And yes, the 350 I plan on putting in it in a couple years will help tremendously, but I'm hoping to do something...

    How hard is it to swap my 3.08 gears to 3.73 gears?

    It's on the to do list. But I think both are problems.

    What is this part called?

    I'm thinking it's a check valve. Hopefully someone can be more specific

    How hard is it to swap my 3.08 gears to 3.73 gears?

    That's what I was thinking. Now the hard part might be finding gears. Then again I know 1 guy local who just might be able to help me out.

    Any headers that fit perfectly on 84 K10?

    According to the reviews these sound like they'll work perfectly!! Thanks so much for the part number. I'm going to dig a little deeper but it sounds like we have a winner!!

    How hard is it to swap my 3.08 gears to 3.73 gears?

    Wouldn't a 350 with 4.11 gears be an even better combination though? I can't afford the engine swap now, but I can probably afford the gear change to get me through to the engine swap and then I'll have both done.

    How hard is it to swap my 3.08 gears to 3.73 gears?

    When you say go 8 lug, do you mean I would switch to 3/4 ton axles?

    How hard is it to swap my 3.08 gears to 3.73 gears?

    How well did you like the 4.10's? I'll probably be going with 31's just so I don't have to worry about any fitment issues.

    How hard is it to swap my 3.08 gears to 3.73 gears?

    How did you like the the 305 with the 3.73 gears? Did you notice a big jump in power?

    How hard is it to swap my 3.08 gears to 3.73 gears?

    So you're saying that you would err with a higher gear ratio just to make sure you have the torque even at the expense of higher rpm?

    Any headers that fit perfectly on 84 K10?

    It looks great. I should have the ability to do this. When you say enlarge the flange holes, you mean where the bolts go through, right?

    Any headers that fit perfectly on 84 K10?

    They have a great look up tool. I found 48 headers that will fit my truck. I may end up going with them when I purchase something more expensive for my 350 build I do in a couple years.
