What have you done to your square lately??
I just received mine in the mail. Now I just need the weather to cooperate. -
What have you done to your square lately??
I had the same issue, so I went to the parts store and bought a generic clamp. Had to drill new holes but it's sturdy now. -
What have you done to your square lately??
I've been keeping a list of things I've done to the truck, and how much they've cost, since I bought it for $2500 in the middle of September. I've done 83 different repairs costing a total of $4962. Currently I've got 10 things left on the "to do" list, most of which won't get done until Spring... -
What have you done to your square lately??
This is different than any timing plate I've had on my various vehicles over the years. They all had numbers on both sides, with 0* in the center. This one has 0*-12* going one direction, just like in 89's picture above. I have to assume that 8* is BTDC, which is what my timing is supposed to be... -

It's a round cylinder mounted to the end of the timing plate. -
What have you done to your square lately??
Found it. It sits at 12 o'clock, under and behind the water pump. This is not going to be easy to check timing. My only question is what is the round thing,that looks like it holds a pencil, for? -
What have you done to your square lately??
Finished installing the new wheel well trim. Loooks a lot better. I was going to check the timing but I couldn't locate the timing marks on this 350. Any one have a picture of the location? -
What have you done to your square lately??
Installed a new alternator. Volts dropped from 18.3 to 14.4. Also started installing new wheel well trim. -
Battery question: distilled water or premix electrolyte when adding ?
Keep in mind that as a battery charges the plates warm up. As they warm up the water will expand. I would leave it alone. Check it occasionally and if it gets below the splits then add DW.- CRM

How To Refurbish Your Dashpad
In the past I removed everything down to metal. Glued down high density foam. Before I glued down the new vinyl, life got in the way. It sat and got dents in the foam. LOL -
What have you done to your square lately??
Decided today to address the 18v display on the voltmeter. Pulled the plug off the alternator and it was pretty gross. Took a can of brake cleaner to clean it all the way. Cleaned the connections on the alt too. No change! Looks like a new alternator is due to come into this SB's life. While I... -

Gauge questions
I've read a lot of threads on gauges and I am trying to narrow down a way to go about troubleshooting. My oil pressure gauge reads 45 psi. My voltage gauge (engine running) is 17v. My temp gauge (engine warmed up) reads 145*. My gas tank gauge reads at about 2 o'clock. I know that there are no...- CRM

What have you done to your square lately??
Today I sold my 77 C10 to a young man who lives 5 blocks away. He's been looking for a square body for awhile. Ive been wanting to sell it so I had more money for my 85. I must admit though as he and his Dad towed it away that I was feeling pretty sad. I owned it for nearly 20 years, and it's... -
What have you done to your square lately??
I started up the truck today and adjusted the electric choke and curb idle speed. I took it out for a drive and it ran good. I was also able to confirm that the new EGR valve eliminated the backfire issue during deceleration. I did notice while standing next to the truck, while it was sitting at...
