    1949 Chevy 3800 AD Dually

    I drug home this 1949 Chevy 3800 this weekend. I picked it up for scrap prices so it was a steel(see what I did there). I was on the hunt for a cab/front clip from this era and found a few but were way too expensive for the shape they were in. This has a fuel tank from the era but not...

    Anyone running...

    staggered wheels on their lowered squares? I was thinking of 16/18 or 18/20 combo but cannot seem to find the right tire combination. Either the fronts have too thick sidewall or the rear tires are too tall. I’m lowered 4.5/6 and I have seen some out there but they do not lead on to what tire...

    I was flipping through the latest LMC catalog this afternoon and I must have missed a few issues. I never noticed they offered aluminum heads. I knew they had performance parts, carb, HEI kits, headers and LS stuff etc... but never saw the aluminum heads list. if you haven't seen looks like...

    Rpo code n67

    Is N67 just the rpo code for "rally wheels" or a specific size rally wheel? It's been some time since I measured the width and not sure if the stickers are 6.5, 7 or 8s. Anyone have some insight on this?

    Whose got the best body replacement parts?

    Where is everyone getting their metal from? I am looking at getting both front fenders on my '87, cab corners and a cowl hood. LMC is only about a half hour drive, given heavy traffic, and classic parts warehouse is only a few miles down from my work. I have seen some reviews that LMC has...

    Shift kits?

    I used the search button and "shift" was searched but "kit" was too common to bring anything up. Nothing conclusive on what kits people are using if they have installed one. Or if in our heavy trucks are they worth installing? I watched the TransGo video install in aTH350 on YouTube from 1978...

    TH350 does nothing when going into gear

    My '87 has a non lockup TH350 and was pulled out over a year ago and went back in without any problems. Hooked everything up that we disconnected then and even went on a drive to make sure everything was copacetic. After we got the motor back in a few weeks ago and actually running on its own...

    I am at the end of my carb swap from tbi... I eliminated all of the original harness minus the main battery cable down to the big(middle post) of the starter, the purple ignition wire to the small post nearest the block on the starter, red wire coming off the junction box on the firewall down to...

    wiring question

    How does the rest of our trucks/burbs get power from the battery? When there are only 2 wires coming off the positive post on the battery and 2/3 coming off the negative post to grounds. I have a 1 wire alternator so that accounts for one of the two and the other is going straight down to the...

    Fuel pump placement.

    On an '87 R10 with dual tanks can I put an external power fuel pump in front of the selector valve? I was thinking of installing the pump in the engine bay but probably not a good idea due to hear and the distance from the tanks to pump. Ditched the tbi setup and all the wires with it. No way...

    My buddy has a 2008 Silverado with the LY5 LS motor with a slight hesitation in the engine. Start up is fine but after that he said he noticed it. Well it threw a code P0307. He looked it up and found it was for mis-fire in cylinder #7. He asked me about it and I told him I am not much help with...

    3.08s with a posi or....?

    '87 8.5 10bolt open rear end with 3.08 gears. Should I even bother with these gears by adding a true-trac carrier? I've never done any work internally on a rear axle before but a fluid change. Pretty stock engine minus headers, dual plane intake and carb. So maybe 200hp or so??? Bolted to a non...

    Autometer speedo and stock cable

    I bought the Autometer phantom speedometer, mechanical not electric, and did not realize it has a screw on cable connection. I looked around on other forums and found some info on an adapter that Summit sold, stated you had to contact them directly as it was not in their catalog nor online...

    Let's talk radiators

    while doing my rebuild I am going to need to redo the cooling system and it starts with replacing the cracked out 29 year old factory radiator. I am assuming this because I have no records of it being changed and it looks factory. Anyways I was searching around and found out an aluminum core...

    Fuel cell plumbing

    I scored a 10 gallon fuel cell of CL for $25. It's perfect for my other project but will be used with my up coming restoration. I have dual tanks now on my '87 which I will not be utilizing anymore. There's still fuel in the working tank but since I have ditched the tbi and went to carb I will...

    Where to find this decal?

    I'm looking for this fleetwood/bowtie decal or sticker. I am assuming too it's part of the style or class of the pickup like silverado etc... But my brother swears up and down that it was something the dealership did. Anyone have an idea or clue? Or can I have someone just make this into one so...

    what drop kit or combination of lowering parts are y'all using?

    I've been looking all over the interweb and cannot decide on a specific kit or combination of lowering parts. Also I cannot seem to find a justified answer on how low is too low for long tube headers. So I've come to my trusty forum for answers....I am contemplating the 4.5/6 kit from LMC but...

    Worth $1200???

    So on my way out to help my buddy I go past a house that's had a GM rolling 4x4 chassis for over a month now. Sunday while we headed to the store we stopped and decided to inquire on the chassis. After talking with the guy, super nice, I kinda understand why he wants $1200 for it. It is/was a...

    Balancer install problem...

    As the title states there's a problem with trying to install my harmonic balancer. While freshening up the motor with new seals, gaskets and paint I figured why not replace the balancer. It has 120k miles probably about time any way right? Well now I have broken 2 install tools. One rented...

    Stock replacement oil pan

    I bought a stock replacement oil pan off a guy locally for my build and thought it would work. It is from summit and has never been installed. I did research before I bought but the rear of the pan is not wide enough for my block plus the bolts do not line up either. There was no way to know...

    Balancer/timing cover issues

    while doing the carb swap I decided to pull the heads and spruce the motor up appearance wise. I have painted the block and heads white and replacing the covers with new fresh black covers. Instead of wire wheeling that old rusty stock timing cover I figured why not buy a new one. $15 at...
