    not impressed so far.....

    Good to meet you too Dave, if you frequent the internet like we all do you will enjoy the forum. I have been talking to all these guys regularly for the past few years. Jims86 just rebuilt my TBI unit for me just because I mailed it to him, Jknight schooled me on Gumbo and even mailed me a jar...

    Bolo....

    I was listening to the news about the government shutdown in between naps in my D10 Dozer today, sounds horrible. You were gonna fly to Reno?! Man I wanna go to Reno to visit, its beautiful this time of year. That is a beautiful truck as well, I got that guy to join a while ago. If I recall...

    I am in the same boat with my high Seirra badges, no luck on ebay? If we dont already have a BOLO section we should start one, just so if someone somewhere in the country is at a wrecking yard and see's something like that they snag it. We kinda already have that, Retroc10sport will go to...

    Irish's pickup from hell, the 454SS.

    Well you twisted my arm into it, I am going to get some cheap but beautiful fabricated aluminum covers off ebay and keep the blue rockers.

    I really appreciate the fact you did work to a 305, I think the underdog motor is great.

    Irish's pickup from hell, the 454SS.

    This is a hard decision, I just looked through everything summit and jegs had to offer and cant seem to find a happy medium here. The one set I could probably live with is over 300 bucks and does not have an oil fill hole, that drives me crazy. These are some sweet rockers, I think lighter...

    Irish's pickup from hell, the 454SS.

    Spider and dog bones finally showed up, here is how they look when installed. Well I really wanted this engine to appear some what factory so I was planning on running the stock valve covers. Now I cant run them because of the rock nuts, the rockers are to pretty to get rid of so...

    oil burn

    This in frame rebuild is something I have only herd of on 18 wheelers. How could you torque main caps and rod caps with a big ass cross member in the way? As far as finishing a crankshaft at home, dont waste money. I tried this the first time with emery cloth the first time when I was about...

    oil burn

    Changing only the valve seals would be a good move considering the situation, dropping a valve into the cylinder is a bad thing. Two options for keeping that from happening: There is a tool that threads into the spark plug holes you can connect an air hose to, charge the cylinder with air...

    Irish's pickup from hell, the 454SS.

    The pictures of those rockers are deceiving because of all the comp cams logo's in the pictures, those are actually summit brand rockers that were a real bargain. A "bargain" is not good when assembling an engine but I gave them a shot because I am a sucker for anodized aluminum parts. My...

    Help me diagnose trans/clutch issue.

    No, if you look up in that bell housing all you will see is clutch parts covered in metalic dust looking stuff. http://www.gmsquarebody.com/forum/showthread.php?t=2339 I put a clutch in my K1500 a while ago and took plenty of pictures just for this occasion.

    Irish's pickup from hell, the 454SS.

    Well shit got real! First piece of news, I think retro will like this one. I wanted to use the factory brackets that hold stuff on the engine so they all got modified to fit. The throttle bracket had to be cut and welded together to fit. I spent hours welding it together and grinding it smooth...

    Looking at the pictures from the first could not really figure out where this was going..... of coarse, desert racing truck. http://tucson.craigslist.org/cto/4062055358.html My favorite shot is of the rear axle, the guy trussed up his rear axle with skid plates but left that hose of some...

    When is the Rat rod trend going to just die?! I knew the first time I saw one it would be the next big thing and it just wont die. 25K for this bullshit? http://tucson.craigslist.org/cto/4039290422.html
