    tranny mount/crossmember- urgent help needed

    I like the aluminum blocks better than the stupid OEM spacers. FWIW, those blocks could be made out of plastic and still be overkill. The only stress on them is whatever compressive load is created by how much the bolt is tightened. As far as corrosion, have you seen Auroragirls truck? :mfr_omg:

    Filling small holes without welding

    Maybe the guy was practicing welding holes while closing his eyes because he didn't have a helmet. How do you think he started the house on fire and ended up dead? Poor guy.

    Filling small holes without welding

    My buddy asked me if I could weld up some 3/16 holes in the trunk of his 69 442 this weekend. I have a 120V mig welder that I use 99% of the time. I told him I could but I didn't want to. I know how finiky welding thin sheet metal can be. It's not hard to make a 3/16th hole into a 1/2 inch hole...

    tranny mount/crossmember- urgent help needed

    I call Uncle @bucket, my mouth got disengaged from my brain. I just went out and had a look see. My bad. Carry on. However, I stand firm on ditching the cheesy spacers. Grade 8, 7/16 bolts have served me well.

    tranny mount/crossmember- urgent help needed

    I have never in my life even seen these so-called spacers. Every truck I have owned, crossmember went inside the frame channel and sat on top of the bottom lip. Drop bolts in from the top and used locknuts. Never, ever had a single problem. Maybe I'm missing something and haven't reached the...

    What locker shall I go for?

    K20 longbed. I absolutely hated the Detroit on pavement so much that I pulled it and gave it away. Was annoying with the auto trans, unlivable after the manual swap.

    Bowler Clutch pedal?

    The 4500 is like Mike Tyson in silk panties. Tough, smooth, but definitely on the slow side.

    Vintage Air Gen V (5) or replace existing compressor, etc., for 1987 R20 Suburban?

    Never underestimate the stupidity of a young Marine trying to establish his place in the pack. I immediately developed a lifelong respect for the poison.

    kick panel speaker housings

    ^^^^^^^^^^^^This^^^^^^^^^^^^^^. I plan on doing some modification to my system this winter. That is exactly the photo I have been looking for. I'm thinking about running some 8" woofers in those voids. Currently I have an " acoustical gap" between my 6" and my Sub. And I don't like the...

    81 k2500 vbelt to serpentine belt and upgraded alternator wiring troubles

    I'm no Sherlock Holmes but I'm speculating there's a question in there somewhere? What alt are you running? I converted to serpentine and a CS130. Although the plug had several wires, I only use two. The brown is the excitor wire, the one that turns things on. It needs to see a voltage drop so...

    LS swap. It won't help the ac problem but it will make you not care about it any more. :popcorn:

    Aftermarket EFI and dual internal pump tanks

    Correct. I want to keep them separate for ease of troubleshooting which has come in handy. I don't mind the extra switch. I did not purchase a "kit" I just wired it up myself. A two pole switch, two BOSCH or PICO relays and 12 gauge wire is all that's needed. I have been looking at the latest...
