    C10 to K20 Body Swap – Driveline Issues

    TL;DR: I'm in the middle of body swapping a 1985 C10 cab & bed onto a 1984 K20 frame. The frame was purchased without a front clip, engine, or doors so specific truck options are not known. After decoding the VIN I confirmed the donor truck/frame is a Canadian truck that had a 6.2L diesel, and...

    '76 K1500 NP203 to NP205 swap

    I just recently bought a NP205, that was bolted to a 400/th350 in a '80 Blazer, that I plan in putting in my truck to replace the beat NP203 which has the locking hubs conversion kit. Besides drive shafts, is there anything else I need to make it work?

    Opinions on an Engine Swap for 81 C10

    Right now, I have an extremely tired 305 and I'm ready to swap it out. Now I've bounced around different ideas, but not sure on which route to take. I think I've narrowed it down to wanting a 350. I don't want to do LS swap or big block. I've done some research and I've come down to: 1. Buy a...

    Square Body Front Clip on a Medium

    NOW I know that it's a big thing for people to put medium duty front clips on pickup trucks (of all makes, I've seen old Fords, and new Chevys) BUT has anyone ever considered taking a front clip of a 73-87 Square Body and placing it on a 73-87 Chevy/GMC medium duty truck? Could you imagine how...

    Cadillac CTS seats in an 89 v1500 Burb!

    I have been scouring this site for seat info for my 89 Burb. I have thoroughly enjoyed the posts that I have found. But I happened across some seats that I just had to figure out how to install in the big boy. First of all, my truck came with some really plush captain's chairs for seating. Only...

    A/C hvac

    Ls swap is done. 87 Chevy r10 that is an a/c truck. All that wiring is intact. I have the upper a/c mount for the motor that will accept the Sanden or pancake style compressor. Can I use all the original A/c wiring with a newer serpentine style compressor?

    454 with 10 bolt rear end?

    Hi, I was wondering if anyone had any insight on how well a 10 bolt rear end would last after a 454 motor swap. I just had it rebuilt last year, 4.56 gears, 35 inch tires. I know it's not an ideal set up, but I am having trouble finding a good deal on a different set up. The motor is a stock...
