Amazon TIG welders?
Anyone have one? I’ve never tig welded. But, you can get a Yeswelder 145 for a $100. The reviews all look decent. I mainly want to weld exhaust and small brackets. They have a bunch of models from 145 amp and up. Thanks -

305 HO valve covers?
Ok, I had a set of valve covers, years ago. I think they were in the GM performance parts catalog, at the time. They were perimeter bolt valve covers with the embossed ribs like the center bolt VC’s, and were a nice metal gray. They were steel. Anyone have any? Or know the application?- 410 John

Let’s see your memorabilia?!
This is the same Pinto and cavalier. New Egypt Speedway on top and most likely Martinsville, bottom. -
What have you done to your square lately??
Southern Virginia, in the Great Dismal Swamp. There’s actually a colony of alligators. Crazy, so far north. What’s next? Parakeets established in New Jersey. Oh wait, that is actually a thing. -
Let’s see your memorabilia?!
This was off Ray Evernham’s modified stock car. It was a Pinto body. Then my Father converted it to a Cavalier. Common thing to do in the early 80’s. I have more stuff. -

I would try gears. Do you drive it on the street enough to care about drivability?- 410 John

83 stepside
20’s are probably not on the horizon. I was just thinking of a regular car Saginaw 4 speed. I would lose the hanger bearing and have a driveshaft made. I looked up trans gear ratios and this 2nd is lower than most regular firsts. I do understand that this 2nd is what you use as 1st most of the time.- 410 John

What have you done to your square lately??
Yeah, the one installed in the pic is removed. The marks on the sides of the caps are because my Father had knock offs screwed to the caps. I can deal with the scratches, for now. Time to drive and enjoy the truck! -

Left hand dipstick
My 83 C10 came with a 305 and my current 350 must be an earlier model with a left hand dipstick. The dipstick is a chrome replacement and very hard to reach and get back in. The master cylinder is dead in the way. Anyone else dealing with this?- 410 John
