    Spray booth??

    I painted a truck in one of those carport canopy tents a few years ago. Wasn't the perfect conditions but it worked. I did it open air but have seen others improve there's by cutting holes and attaching a couple box fans and filters onto it. Found some random examples pics online.

    GMC-IH

    Another thought I had was with your race gear inside the pan maybe search forums about what the racers are doing for oil levels.

    GMC-IH

    Too much oil above a certain level is not good. I would imagine go with original type dipstick because that would be correct engine level. The extra size oil pan should be designed with that in mind. That's my 2 penny's worth.

    Leaking power steering fluid from Hydra boost unit.

    (Get quality name brand)sounds like your master cylinder needs replaced and also hydroboost. The brake fluid leak probably agitated the hydroboost seal. The hydroboost unit is pretty expensive to replace, you could probably get a seal kit for around 20 bucks and replace that front seal when...

    Have this crane and seriously considering sticking it in the corner to use for pulling engines and other things. If it didn't bend near the middle it wouldn't work for me but measurement wise it will fit good in the corner and be at a useful reach. I could always shorten it too. It does all work...

    Eratic behavior from a 1985 6.2. Requesting help please

    I concur. Seems like it's sucking air to me. Going to need to check fuel lines. Probably sucking air between tank and lift pump. If you have dual tanks there's more lines. Make sure the selector switch isn't tripped between tanks.

    Side story. In high school my friend actually used a red rag to fix sidewall leaks. On a 74 powerflaggon. Had super old tires on it with good tread developed some sidewall leaks. He used an awl to cram it in. Cut the ends off with a knife and all you could see was a few little pink flower...
