    Peanut Port #14092360

    @Ricko1966 I plan to stay mild cam shooting for about 300hp. Will have Harris do a stage 2 custom chip.

    Peanut Port #14092360

    Nice! Looks like we don't need much cam to get over 300hp. Stay flat tappet or go for roller long term. This truck is for my daughter believe it or not. She drained oil and filter yesterday with only my supervision. I held water pump and she removed. Then I putsed around cleaning oil...

    400 SBC Build - Tight Budget

    What is the tiny RPM tach? Would love to pull the clock and install. Have factory TBI and plug there if that effects my choice at all. Thx

    Peanut Port #14092360

    Really, since it's for my girl and pretty sure all original, I was gonna rebuild vs pulling a head to fix or both to remanufacture. The machine shop can do all that stuff for me. Stressing over stock cam, mild upgrade, or if a couple other choices are too much. I keep asking questions and...

    Peanut Port #14092360

    Oh, no, you're all good. I meant can someone tell if they have miles on them from pic. I just thought they looked pretty dam good and was surprised. Was concerned I was rebuilding something that may not need it. Texting sucks for communication sometimes, and I was probably not clear...

    Peanut Port #14092360

    These are peanut port from the #14092360 I originally planned to fix two broken exhaust bolts, then figured if pulling one...and if needs remanufacture, should do both, then realized I'll have everything off and gonna just redo whole engine. Now is the time anyways.

    Edelbrock 3764 intake - TBI upgrade

    Found a used one on ebay and he declined my offer. Found someone selling a new one in box, and he excepted my offer! Save where you can! He is sending gaskets within too, so we will see what they are like. I know you use RTV instead of gasket on front & rear.

    Intake Manifold Install

    I downloaded, learn learn learn. I keep reading obsessively to understand. I love the idea of this TBI for my daughter, and in general really. Since out truck was running good when we put into the garage, I'm a little terrified. But want this long term for her, she ❤️ her truck! You guys...

    Just an intro

    I ordered some cheap Dorman with the air tube ports that can be plugged. Planned on just swapping and if I found I could delete air injection I would. I have, keeping EGR so no chip change.

    Exhaust Manifolds hot?

    Correct. I was going to pull pan and check, replace rear main seal, but realizing with every freaking thing we're removing to get to some thing else we'll have torn down. So, really wanting to rebuild.

    TBI Issues

    Suggestions, cheap? I have the basic gm reader. Seems like any Bluetooth device is OBDII. Use an adapter, or OBDII won't work.

    Edelbrock 3764 intake - TBI upgrade

    I found it from some ebay pic, and the Edelbrock install pdf has two different adapters for Brake Booster. I'll still have to mod, but believe I found the answer. Hope it works as well as going up into TBI special port chamber. FYI, I had emailed edelbrock previously, but they said they...

    Intake Manifold Install

    You'll get it Mango! It will be an ah ha moment. I've been looking at connectors that need to be replaced vs new wire harness. Price and screwing something up seems a bit intimidating vs fixing. Hope you find it!

    Edelbrock 3764 intake - TBI upgrade

    I was looking at upgrading to this from stock iron I take. Concern: It doesn't have the input for the power booster vacuum. The TBI has a port that goes down into the adapter plate and booster connects at adapter plate. The 3764 doesn't seem to have that.
