Th400 orange wire
It makes it down shift when you stand on the gas. You need a switch that closes when you mash the throttle. If you don't mind manually shifting down to accelerate no you don't need it. I used a nitrous button on the shifter when I was 16 in one of my creations. I'd mash the gas hit the button...- Ricko1966

2wd vs 4wd shift linkage

2wd vs 4wd shift linkage
It's not my truck,but 1st thing I'd try is move the adjustment clevis to the other side of the arm and replace the cinch bolt with a short button head Allen. From your pic that looks like a quick 5 minute fix- Ricko1966

What brake lines to get for lifted c10
I hate to tell you, don't use the ones from Amazon. When you are going back together go buy what you need at your local parts store. The ones from Amazon were examples,not what you need. Get the plain steel ones from behind the parts counter. You will never bend the stainless ones without... -

No fuel in carb at start up
And if you have a 3 port pump the pump check valve becomes irrelevant in this situation because the check valve is before the return line so fuel still bypasses the pump through the return line to drainback. If you have a 3 port pump and the correct fuel filter for a 3 port pump there should...- Ricko1966

Look on amazon or ebay cliff Ruggles quadrajet performance. I'd build it myself,but I don't know your skills don't let the throttle shaft bushings intimidate you. If you do them,post up if you have questions,problems or are just nervous.- Ricko1966

No fuel in carb at start up
Did you verify where your fuel pump is!!!!! Your getting way ahead of yourself,trying to find a cure without verifying what you have. P.S. if the needle and seat doesn't leak, The carbureator should still have fuel in it regardless if there's even a fuel running to it,if you have to prime it the...- Ricko1966
