    Blazer tub on c10 frame

    I've recently been drooling more over blazers than my c10. I love the truck, but seeing as its a daily and I have more people in it than big hauls in the bed, I'd like to get a blazer as my next car. But as I started to think about what to look for I figured I basically want all my drive train...

    Turbo 400 won’t do anything

    Sounds like a front pump 100%. Get a pressure gauge on there if you can, that'll be the final word. A good rule of thumb is that you shouldn't be able to stick your fingers behind the converter

    PieceOfQ-JetWontStart

    I'd try a rubber mallet or screwdriver near the floats, then tear the thing apart and run through the needle and seat

    Exhaust Crossover Restrictors

    I bought the same gasket, but I took some scrap I had laying around and cut a new peice using what they gave as a template. The reason being that their peice has a hole, so its not truly blocked off. Now the truck runs fine in 110 degree weather!

    Stock hei upgrades

    A few months back I had my distributor out and decided to run through it and freshen it up. I mainly just got all the dirt out of it, unstuck the advance weights, and replaced the non functional advance canister. I did notice that the 2 bushings for the weights are very worn, so in the near...

    Maaco?

    It lasts 7 to 10 months. And doesn't hold up to jack. Trust me, I'm rocking some black plasti and its god awful. Now for wheeles and trim etc ok I can see it, but it's not made to do a whole car

    Fuel tank fitment

    As long as you have clearance and yoyr bed is mounted well to the frame you'll be fine. For security you can tape cardboard to the top of the tank, and check back later to see if its been worn at all

    C10 control arm question.

    Dude those bushings are mint, mine wore out so bad they had rubbed through to the control arm

    New temperature gauge reading low

    Just my .02, I usually point the gun at the front intake water jacket, and use the port on the intake for the sender. It gives a more accurate reading of the COOLANT temp, instead of head temp, I find I always ruin "hotter" when reading the head

    Planning summer small block build

    Scratch my previous post, after some research I think il stick with the stock rods, since this is going into something I hope to daily on the street, I don't think the benefit I'll see at high rpm is going to justify buying new rods and pistons. However if I can't find a short block and have to...

    Would that then safely allow you to ruin more advance?

    signals quit but brakes and flashers still work

    the flasher relay is what I would've thought, I'd get a wiring diagram and just start tracing it from the battery to the light and see where you lost continuity, maybe try bypassing the flasher to check and see if you got a bad relay

    Planning summer small block build

    Thanks for the advice, il defiantly get a new oil pump, didn't eve, think about it. And il be honest, I thought longer rods and shorter pistons would put the piston down deeper in the hole, but niw that you say that it makes sence that the only thing affected is dwell time. Although I'm not sure...

    tach

    Ah, my bad

    tach

    Even if you get a v8 tach, you need to rewire the rear bulk connector so the tach gets proper sig 12v and gnd

    Haha yea pretty much, I'm hoping that by starting early and just buying parts as I go over the months, I spend a little more, go slow, and do it right, no mudding here though, I tried my hand and dug in past my axle once.. Thanks for the bearing recommendation too, il check them out

    Planning summer small block build

    Yea im starting to see a few ways to get around it a little, could I still run 87 on 9.5? Or should I step it up to 91
