    A/C rebuild list. May help someone

    Finished up the a/c. Not as cold as I wanted with fan setting on high, 60 degrees idling. Granted it was about 100 degrees in my garage. Fan on low brought temps around 45 degrees. I haven’t tried any temps while driving yet.

    Update: The condenser I listed still makes you notch out a part of the radiator support. It was an easy job with a cutoff wheel. I think most aftermarket condensers are about the same dimensions.

    Water Pump bolts question

    My apologies, it is a long pump. The PO must’ve thrown in different length bolts for some reason. I’ll just find some new bolts all same length to throw in there. Thanks

    Alright folks. I’ve checked carparts.com and have found a few for sale, but hoping I can find one close(few hours drive). I’m in Memphis and need an 81-87 fleetside tailgate.

    Sorry. Another Charcoal Canister Question

    I did this exact setup, but now the engine bogs down when I hit the gas. So ported vacuum seems to be the issue. Is it sucking fumes into the ported vac? I don’t really know where to go from here

    Sorry. Another Charcoal Canister Question

    1985 K10 Dual tanks. My only question is where can I vent my charcoal canister. I open the hood and get blasted with fuel vapors. Doesn’t seem safe to me. I want to use the canister, so plugging it and getting a vented gas cap isn’t the route I want to take. Is there a way for me to vent this...

    Nice! Did you get rid of the clutch fan, or did you get a smaller auxiliary fan and put it on the outside of the condenser?

    Complete a/c rebuild question or two

    So you think the white tube would be better for the highway output? But the blue tube will keep the a/c cooper when you pull of the highway for a bit?

    Man, you just keep helping a guy out don’t ya?! Do you remember what condenser that was? Looks like that may be my only option. Was hoping there was an actual replica out there. I have my original one, maybe I’ll have it flushed out.
