    Squarebody Differentials.

    Hopefully this works I don't post a lot. My 1985 GMC K2500 has the below. My counting skills allow me to guess this is a 14-bolt. The pumpkin, she's a'leakin just a bit, for how long no idea. Purchased from my boss 2y ago. Guessing just the seal but to be honest I've never worked on a diff...

    Dual Tanks with electric fuel pump

    Dual Tanks with electric fuel pump

    I have a pretty horrible setup on my '85 square / dual tanks. It has a new factory 5.7L crate motor installed by the previous owner, there's a mechanical fuel pump on that motor, Edelbrock carb. Under the passenger side there's an electric fuel pump added, it must be between the fuel tank...
