    if your looking to do any surface rust, you can sand it down to metal and spray vinegar on it. that makes it corrode. I know alot of people use that method

    Anyone lower a 4x4

    frankenstien a square body on to a newer frame and drivetrain with front IFS. I think that would be the best idea for all around function and look of a lowered 4x4. unless you just want the look, then you would better off do a 2wd. You could swap out all the stuff, bolt, and weld it in onto your...

    What size carb should I run?

    Very cool that you tested it! I assume that my engine is putting out about 350 to 365 hp based upon similar engines. My truck will be mostly a pavement princess after shes done for the first year or 2 so the throttle response is gonna be more important to me. I may go bigger on the cam and carb...

    Anyone lower a 4x4

    Hell, in California people put HUGE lift kits on their 2wd pickups, why not lower a 4x4? I think that's cooler than jacking up a 2wd. It would kinda be a sleeper then. slap a c10 emblem on the side too lol

    What size carb should I run?

    I got a 79' 350 four bolt. Did a complete engine rebuild, put a .475 lift cam in the engine, flat top pistons, roller rockers, new performance valve springs, and the cylinders are punched out .40 over, edelbrock rpm aluminum intake manifold. Im running a edelbrock performer 600 cfm with manual...

    Anybody make a 2.5 inch Dual exhaust kit?

    My trucks back in Wisconsin where im from. Ill be driving it there, and its pretty country up there, so you can get away with it no problem. Plus all the cops are family friends and will turn a head. Its more for novelty than anything.

    Anybody make a 2.5 inch Dual exhaust kit?

    That sucks! you figure for the price, they would give you enough pipe to do what you want with it! I wanted to run electric cut outs behind the front tires too. this is gonna be like a 700- 800 dollar exhaust system! the electric cut outs are like 250 for a pair and that doesn't include the...

    Anybody make a 2.5 inch Dual exhaust kit?

    The x pipe makes sense to me, youll get the sound of 8 cylinders in each tail pipe instead of 4 and 4, but at the same time, with a cam, I think it would sound chunkier with true duals. H pipe seems to me like it would just decrease the exhaust velocity. does that kit give you an option of tail...

    Anybody make a 2.5 inch Dual exhaust kit?

    Thanks for the pictures and Info scorpion! Your exhaust looks really nice actually. Im sure I can find the aluminized spray on summit. I think im just going to do the duals, no h pipe or x pipe. what do you think about that? The part I was worried about was making the curves that go around the...

    Anybody make a 2.5 inch Dual exhaust kit?

    That's what I thought too but I don't know why they would put such a pathetic ass picture for it lol. And im gonna do some research on the BB vs the SB thing. You would think that longtubes would end in almost the same spot cause the headers would have to hug the block more to clear the frame...

    Anybody make a 2.5 inch Dual exhaust kit?

    http://www.jegs.com/i/Hooker-Headers/520/16922/10002/-1 Heres the link, I now see that It says its for a big block, but its the only 2.5" kit I can find for the square body truck. If you see at the bottom of the pic, theres 2 flex pipes. I still cant find 2.5" for my k10 with a small block. It...

    Anybody make a 2.5 inch Dual exhaust kit?

    So I checked out the hooker kit. Wasn't to impressed by it cause it had flex piping in it, which just seems jerry rigged and not like a 300 dollar exhaust! So other than that, there is no other bolt on kits? The flow master kit sounds like a pain in the ass
