    What have you done to your square lately??

    Painting one wheel, so far. Back to silver. It’s supposed to rain. My Father had these matching the body color and modified a spinner/knock off cap to cover the lugs. As seen in my avatar. Not my choice of look.

    Searching for a modern sound system

    Did you put the carpet on the speaker adapters? All the ones in my Google search are just a plate. Also, does the sub amp offer power for the other speakers?

    3 speed saginaw replacement with 5 speed

    NV3500’s still have clunky shifting? Am I correct?

    Searching for a modern sound system

    My recent(yesterday) too much bass experience. We just got my son a 2018 Chevy Trax. He has the bass set for his rap music. And it really has some nice bass for a factory radio. Well, after driving with him, we made him shut off his music or put the radio on. So, with the rock station on, the...

    3 speed saginaw replacement with 5 speed

    I was wrong on the spline counts and applications. There’s no 10 spline T5. There’s is a 14, though. Good info here: https://lugnutz65chevystepside.weebly.com/thinking-about-installing-a-t5-read-this-first.html

    3 speed saginaw replacement with 5 speed

    Are you going forward with this swap? I’m considering the S10 T5. Mine C10 has the truck 4 speed. And there’s a 5 speed for sale locally. I’m just hesitant to pull the trigger. Also, I’m pretty sure a 4.3 S10 would be 10 spline and the finer spline would be a 4 cylinder or 2.8.

    What new tools have you got lately?

    Other weird interest as of late is old CB radios. I’m not hoarding them or anything. But I get them when the gett’ins good. I guess it’s one of those things from your childhood that resurfaces. Their all stacked in the garage and I don’t even have any antennas, yet.

    What new tools have you got lately?

    I’m a born and raised Chevy guy. I worked the lube rack at 18 for a Chevy dealer. Then moved into the parts department at 3 different dealers over a 10 year period. The VW thing simultaneously developed, because in high school my buddies first car was a 68 convertible bug. And I was into it...

    Amazon, just because it’s easy. I haven’t had a loud car stereo in a long time. Ok, I’m going to dumb it up. When do you use the RCA jacks? With a powered subwoofer?

    I haven’t even checked, yet. It’s just parked in the driveway. I have no time frame on the audio project. But, I’ll let you know.

    My 83 step side still has the factory radio! I’m open to suggestions on a modern Bluetooth Amazon sourced sound system.

    No, I do not. I never had a line bored case.

    What new tools have you got lately?

    Thanks. I plan on using it for aircooled VW heads and cases. But, you never know when you may need to slot a hole.

    Jones chambered bullet mufflers

    Thanks. I think I like them better. Mine comes to life with that glass pack “BRAP!”

    Jones chambered bullet mufflers

    Anyone use them? My truck came with true duals and no cats. The exhaust is tucked up real nice and exits under the step bumper. I wanted flowmasters or similar copy. I just always loved the GT Mustang sound of the late 80’s. I don’t think I can fit an oval or square muffler nicely. The glass...

    Aftermarket efi 2bbl of 4bbl?

    Thanks for the reply’s. I’m getting the truck this weekend. I know it has a stock component rebuilt 350 with a mild cam. My Father passed and I’m inheriting the truck. I know it has an edelbrock on it. I think he had a free 750 on it and swapped it out for a 600. If it is a 600, I try to follow...

    83 stepside

    It has the granny gear one, so I guess the 465. I was thinking about a T5 from a S10. The original trans works, just not a gear bang’n trans.

    Aftermarket efi 2bbl of 4bbl?

    Just wondering what people are running on a mild 350? I have no problem with considering the 2bbl version. Also, any suggestions on brand? Thanks

    83 stepside

    I’m inheriting my Father’s 83 2wd stepside. My uncle bought it new in 83. It’s a factory truck 4 speed manual. My Father just replaced the bed, fenders and doors. Along with a new paint job. I’m going to get it on Sunday. I hope I don’t jinx myself by posting this before I have it. I’ve owened...
