    468 bbc high compression

    I’ll check what stat it has and try that before changing fans. The oil pressure is a bit high 60 at idle. Is it because I’ve got the high volume/standard pressure oil pump in it ? What will have to be wary about when driving this car from time to time.

    Hello this is my second square body and it’s a 1979 Chevy k20 with a 468/4l80e(no transfer case at the moment waiting for the 205 to arrive). The 468 had some work done to it, Holley sniper, aluminum heads, intake, big cam, and pistons. The compression last time checked was 12.8. The trans is...

    6 lug conversion

    Neither just cruising I just want the power. If the brakes on it currently are enough I’ll just upgrade to hydro boost and get some goodies from YUKON and beef up the diffs. What do you guys think ?

    Is there a specific HB for the k20 ? Only found for the c10’s, will they work ? I’ve got the PSP type 2 I can get the remote reservoir for this set up.

    6 lug conversion

    I haven’t even drove the truck yet and I’m just planning ahead since I got it, it has been going from garage to garage. The plan is dropping a 572 in it and I’m worried about stopping power. Considered Hydroboost and converting the front to discs but the idea of depending on the PSP doesn’t rest...

    Hello my friend again :) I expected this kind of reply lol I’m sorry. I already got a blazer and it WAS a lifted truck with a 10 bolt infront but removed it and got the new QA1 clip they just made for the c10 installed to it and transformed ( a guy who I payed) it to a sporty station wagon. I’ve...

    The truck came with the corporate 10 bolt and sure if I was in America I’ll give it to you for free but I’m in qatar. Regarding brakes for the 8 lug I’ve found some 2 piston ones from wilwood and disc rotors from summit, I don’t think that would cut it. Again if I was in the US I would pay...

Mine was from the US I don’t know from which state though exactly but it was beat to hell. I had a full rotisserie restoration body and frame done on it. It’s got...

And if so will it be wider than his (when installing the 10” wide wheels with the 11.2” tires)? Thank...

    Thanks grit dog, so you think I should get 16x8’s and look for 33x12.5 tires? And also what is a safe BS number I should be looking for in that wheel I will be buying? Would really appreciate it .Thanks in advance.

    tire/wheel combo for 2.5inch lift

    I know that by reading a lot of threads by now that 2.5 inch lift will accommodate 32’s and 33’s. Wanted to know if I can go wider than 16x10 wheels, and if not how wide can I go on the tires if the wheels are going to be 16x10’s, thanks anyways rusty nail.

    Hello everybody, I've got a 1979 Chevy k20 and got it lifted to 2.5 inches (skyjacker leaf springs and shocks) and wanted to get the biggest tire (preferably the widest) fitted without rubbing or trimming the fenders. The wheels I would love to install are 16x12's, but have no idea what BS I...
