    Rebuild suggestions

    Sounds like you just want something simple and low buck. First off buy a book by David vizard about budget high performance small blocks. Second thing to remember is shit adds up fast, stick to a plan. If you want to go roller valve train find a later model block with the provisions so...

    Replacing ignition key switch ?

    Yes, leave the steel locking plate out and the wheel won't lock. Best advice I can offer is finding the compressor tool for the lock ring, it's almost impossible to put back together without it.

    Anti theft devices..kill switches..

    Mount some fake cameras on the dash, make the theif think they are on that show. As pretty as the truck is just leave the keys in it so it always looks like a setup. Really t hough, floor; board dimmer switch cutout works good.

    Driver4r's Monte

    You have way too much tire for a small block, that's the problem. You should trade me, I can't keep traction even in second lol

    Ran the C20 off in a ditch

    Is that a Viper GTS coupe? Regular vipers are rare enough but the hard top early ones are something of a unicorn status.

    New brake calipers? Where?

    I could not agree with this any more^ I put cheapie Autozone reman calipers and cheap pads on my 85 in 2010. Its been a daily driver ever since and brakes are still gooder than hell. I just put a set of Napa's premium line rebuilt calipers on my SS truck and I like them so far.

    thinkin bout a motor swap..

    Im usually a huge douchebag on the internet after a few beers but im being completely sincere and honest saying this, Literally the last person to give me the speech about what a few means was a toothless fucking carnie. This was last weekend at a carnival I went to with my 6 year old. Am I...

    thinkin bout a motor swap..

    The machine shop here is really fair on pricing, I got my crank micro polished for 40 bucks. I cant remember what he was going to charge me to turn the small block crank I had but you should be able to get the entire job done for a few hundred bucks. Just remember, your half way to having a...

    thinkin bout a motor swap..

    I would suggest pulling it out so you can get the crank shaft out. From there you just pull your timing chain and flywheel or flexplate. Putting new bearings right back in might just be a huge waste of time. The right way to fix it is take the crankshaft to a machine shop so they can check it...

    I call bullshit on all you guys. Original poster give me your address, I have a carb to TBI manifold adapter plate I ordered for my big block that I cant use. I will ship it to you for free, basically lets you put a TBI in place of a carb, all you would need is the gaskets. I can relate here...

    My new toy 1994 silverado k1500

    Alot of us are driving GMT400 trucks now. I think they are fantastic! You get cool modern stuff like fuel injection, power windows and parts are still cheap. I just about scored a 97 or 98 K1500 the other day for 600 bucks, all it needed was a transmission tail housing! I got this parts truck...

    honda van seats

    Awww man........ Dont do it....... Those seats are too narrow for a full size truck, my 90 came with a new take out seat the idiot previous owner installed and it was actually the first thing to go when I got the truck. In all fairness it was mounted horribly, my head rubbed the headliner and...

    1988 bbc tbi power

    I drove an 09 GT-500 and it was more of a handfull than the Roush. I think it has to do with the difference in tires, this Roush has some enormous soft tires on it and the Shelby had more of a street car tire. The Shelby felt silly, it would not hook up. The Roush felt planted like it was using...

    Chevys From Brazil

    Its really interesting to see someone from another country join, mostly because its not just another Texan :emotions33: Those trucks you are posting look absolutely nothing like what we have here, thats really interesting. I can see slight similarities around the upper doors and thats about it...

    1988 bbc tbi power

    I love my big block, it may have low horse power numbers compared to a hopped up 383 but nothing has that brutal low end power a big block gives you. The setup in my little truck is bad ass, it feels like infinite power on tap. If you get aggressive with the throttle its just sideways boiling...
