    Can you build a new box from lmc truck?

    I don't have an answer for you, but if you do go the LMC route please keep us updated! I'm curious about the quality of their new Goodmark replacement parts and might consider them for repairing my shortbed.

    '76 K10 400 Small Block Fan Shroud

    Any chance you know if the core support is drastically different between the two options? From what I'm reading here I believe it is a 350 radiator and the upper mount resembles the top image in your comment and my radiator is not flush with the top of the core support. I have a guy who is...

    '76 K10 400 Small Block Fan Shroud

    Thanks for the info. I finally received the coolant sensor that I ordered and installed it, but it looks like my gauge went bad as well or there is a wiring/connection issue somewhere that I'll need to track down at a later date. I think I will get the IR thermometer just to double check, but...

    '76 K10 400 Small Block Fan Shroud

    Currently the gauge isn't working at all. I know for sure the sender is bad since it was almost reading as an open circuit when I measured the resistance and have one on order (apparently nobody keeps these in stock anymore). It has the style with the round terminal rather than the newer blade...

I'll wait until the temp sender comes in before I...

    '76 K10 400 Small Block Fan Shroud

    Well I'm back with some pictures and I'm glad I took them because my memory let me down on the size of the radiator. It's 28"x19" and I believe a 4 core. The fan was off while I was trying to get the motor unstuck from a bit of rust buildup after sitting so long. This may have been why it...

    '76 K10 400 Small Block Fan Shroud

    Forgive me if this is in the wrong location, but I didn't see a 'better' place to post this. I'm currently working on resurrecting my '76 K10 from the dead after it sat for more than a decade. I've managed to get it running (but not driving) and had some issues with overheating already. The fan...
