    AC Delco electric pumps available anymore?

    WOW, 4 fuel pumps in 2 years!! Here's food for thought, back around 1999, my wife's 1989 Isuzu Trooper had a failed fuel pump. I called the dealer and they wanted over $400 for the original pump. At the time I just couldn't afford to pay that much soooooooooooooo I purchased an aftermarket pump...

    Best Door Hinge Lubricant

    I use pure 90W oil on ALL my door hinge components. I have a 1994 Chevy Suburban Silverado with 321,000 miles on it and I just FINALLY decided to change the drivers door hinge pins and bushings.....not that they were worn out but just a little too much movement for me. After ALL these years...

    AC Delco electric pumps available anymore?

    Greetings to all fellow GM Squarebody owners!! I wanted to know if ANYONE knows if AC Delco electric fuel pumps are made anymore. I have an aftermarket one installed in my 1987 Silverado (5.7) Suburban and the fuel pressure doesn't climb as high as it should on the initial "KEY ON" mode of the...

    Good morning fellow Squarebody owners!! My 1987 Chevrolet Suburban started giving low idle stall out issues and I hooked up my Snap On MT2500 scanner and found the issue. A bad IAC valve. No problem. I changed it and it runs great........EXCEPT.........when I plug in the cigarette lighter...

    Winch Bumper wanted!!

    Here is my first attempt at hiding a 12,000 LB winch UNDER the bumper and believe me, it wasn't easy doing it by myself. I "Attempted" to re-create the front bumper of the Dante's Peak Suburban and this was as close as I could get it without going broke and at the same time, keeping the original...

    1987 Chevrolet Suburban 4X4 208-C1 transfer case question

    Does anyone know who sells the BEST Chevy 208C transfer case rebuild kit? I see that this unit has Torrington bearings in it and someone double sealed the input drive gear putting TWO seals back to back, not a bad idea it seems..........

    1987 Chevy V10 Suburban 350 V8 4X4 Cruise Control Servo??

    Well, I fixed the servo a few weeks ago. Took it apart, cleaned it, replaced all of the rubber seal/o rings and made a new little internal filter. All ohm and voltage checks on the brake light switch, connections and module connector-ALL passed with flying colors. Then I sealed the large...

    I could choke a GM engineer!

    My 1994 Suburban did the same thing. I went to the local hardware store and bought a STEEL pipe nipple with barbs on it, it NEVER leaked again. I think the metal was zinc that the disconnect was made out of.

    1987 TBI intake and heads on early style block

    Just wanted to know because the 1987 Suburban I just restored has an engine code for a 1969 350 V8 but, it retains the original fuel injection unit, looking to see "IF" it was a four boult main too, well, it's not. I used a Harbour Freight borescope to look inside the oil pan from the oil drain...

    1987 TBI intake and heads on early style block

    Good morning to all. Just wanted to know if you can put a TBI Chevy 350 intake and the TBI heads and put them on the earlier style Chevy 350 block assemblies. When I say earlier style Chevy 350's, I mean the carbureted ones before the angle of the intakes and the bolt through the valve cover...

    1990 700R4 3-4 clutch pack clearance with 8 frictions and 7 steels ?

    LATEST UPDATE: After conferring with the company who sold me the rebuild kit, I am advised to install 9 frictions and 8 steels AND set the clutch pack at .025-.040 clearance. I did install the 9 frictions and 8 steels (DID not use either of the two extra thick steels) and used the original...

    1990 700R4 3-4 clutch pack clearance with 8 frictions and 7 steels ?

    Thanks Matt69olds. I just wonder why one book says to reinstall the load release springs and another book says most builders leave them out. The LAST person who built this left them out and the 3-4 clutches were burnt. It is a little confusing but I am still looking for a happy medium. It will...

    Greetings to all fellow square body owners!! I am at a stand still, I seem to keep getting different clearance numbers on the proper 3-4 clutch pack set up WITH 8 frictions and 7 steels. I know the 3-4 clutch pack set up can be a real problem area so I need this to be spot on. I'm using the...

    Greetings fellow Square body owners! As I am beginning my re-assembly of my 1990 700R4 transmission rebuild I noticed the rear case bushing has two notches on it. I did make a note of how the original came out but I don't see the purpose of the notches. There's no corresponding holes or...

    Greetings fellow Square Body owners! I am rebuilding a 1990 700R4 transmission code KRM.
