    Can you tell if a block has 1 or 2 piece rear seal without opening it up???

    I’ve read that a pass side dipstick is on a 1 piece block, and a driver side dipstick would indicate a 2 piece rear main seal. This always the case? Casting numbers on my block are darn near impossible to read. Was told it was a 444 replacement block?? I’d like to order parts and have them...

    Suggestions on primer for my topper

    Excellent info sir. Thanks for that. That can is full. I’m not sure how much the topper will need. I can get the exact same brand/type locally at Napa. I’ll get the other items there as well. Summit won’t ship certain items to Canada. Thanks again Codfish

    Will this radio fit an 84??

    Yeah it says GM Delco on it As for the wiring, not sure yet. There’s a Clarion stuffed in there right now. I wanna put an uncut bezel back in. Not crazy about the AM only though lol.

    Suggestions on primer for my topper

    Ah no When I went to pick it up it was in MUCH better shape than he had described and I had been looking for one for almost 2 years. And I could tell that the old guy could probably use the big whopping $40. I’d probably give him more but that’s all the cash I had on me at the time. Sorry...

    Suggestions on primer for my topper

    Picked up a topper for my 84 for $40. Great shape except for busted front glass. No big deal. Anyhow a few touch ups here and there and I’m getting closer to priming it before paint. I’ll be tackling this myself. What primer should I use? Here’s a pic of a can of paint that came with the...

    Looking for tips on what else to do to give my truck the best chance of starting after fuel tank replacement.

    If you had an electric fuel pump kicking around, hook it up to pull fresh gas thru the lines before connecting to the carb. Maybe overkill but simple enough if you have one. If you prime it thru the carb before firing it off, consider a little 2 stroke oil in the gas you prime it with. Helps...

    Another 700r4 question. Weird happening

    Unfortunately the rebuilder lives 600 miles away. Is that the plunger that the tv cable lever is connected to? Thanks

    Another 700r4 question. Weird happening

    Newly rebuilt trans has about 500 miles on it, give or take. Trouble free. Took the truck to town today. After an hour or so of running around to different places, the truck was hard to start. Seemed flooded. Once it started had to rev it up somewhat to clear the “flood”, so it would stay...

    Un excited alternator

    When I first start my 84, volts on gauge and sniper screen show batt voltage until I blip the throttle. Hot or cold, doesn’t matter. Then it goes to 14.1 or so. This anything to be concerned about? Thanks Codfish

    door lock cylinder not working on passenger side

    Yeah lack of lube is definitely not the issue. Lots there. Are the cylinders side specific? Possible both are for the drivers side I guess. And do power and non power setups have the same cylinders? Codfish

    Paint Spectra Gas Tank?

    Rubberized undercoating works great too. Degrease it and run ground wires to frame. Codfish

    Holley Sniper EFI help

    What they said On my 84 it’s on the left side of the fuse panel. Just a single spade connector is what I used as the spot on the panel I used doesn’t have a fuse. Used an inline fuse. Codfish

    Quiet muffler recommendations

    Scoots1 JUST back from 2 week turnaround with work. Still haven’t ordered anything yet. Gotta measure the length of what’s on there now to hopefully get a bolt in replacement. Mind are virtually brand new and only clamped in place so hopefully they come apart easily. It’s a long run of...

    Quiet muffler recommendations

    Not sure Nothing stamped on it whatsoever. 13” case length and 9” wide. Looks like Flowmaster construction but no markings.

    Quiet muffler recommendations

    Looking for options for quiet mufflers for my 84. Has headers and 2.5” exhaust. Ones on there now are way too loud. There when I got the truck. Headers are staying. I’d be happy with stock sounding mufflers if I can find ones that will slip right in place of what’s there now once I measure...

    Camper Shell

    Hopefully picking this one up for free in a couple days for my 84K10. They’re still around, but harder to find. The 88 and up will fit in a pinch but are a few inches narrower. There are soft retractable ones online somewhere. Not sure how durable they are though:confused:

    Best gun for metallics

    Thanks for the info Terry, I’ll check him out. I really don’t think it’s a factory color. Previous owner painted it. I do have a small can that the previous owner gave me when I bought the truck. Not at home for another week so I can’t give specifics, but I will when I get home. The cap is...
