292 to 427T industrial swap, in C30. Many questions on fitment.
Both trucks were 30 Series 4X4 with a T400 transmissions. The only tall deck I used a Dart because the stock one was a double thermostat version and was huge.It allowed me to use a standard water pump. Since I was changing it I decided to use the short shaft to take the extra room at the rear of...- Dooley

Never followed a "6" with a Big Block. Replaced small block and 6.2/6.5 also. You will need a hydroboost lower power steering bracket for the big block. The small block I replaced with a steel crank 454 out of a 2WD Suburban. I used the motor mounts from the Suburban. The Big Block T replacement...- Dooley

MACHINING 16.5" DOWN TO 16"?
Wheels used on highways have to be DOT approved. Anytime you modify a DOT wheel it loses it's approval. Someone hits me with unapproved wheels I'll sue his rear off for operating unsafe vehicle.- Dooley

Where to buy tires
As a side note, Firestone is the tire company with the record of the 2 largest tire recalls in tire history. In 2000 I got my money back for my ATX's and promptly replaced them with BFG. They had a large recall in 1978 also.- Dooley

New K30 CUCV member
The D30 designation shows up in the serial number because it was built for the military. They're not entirely exact to the civilian model. I have done a gasser installation of one of these but, kept much of the 24V system so that it would be still compatible with my other ex-military equipment...- Dooley

New K30 CUCV member
Great truck to work with. First though know the truck's model is a D30, not a K. Second, beware of all the 24V that is included in the fuseblock when wiring things up. I ran 255/85-16 BFG Muds on mine on stock wheels and no lift. Never any tire interference.- Dooley

Big Block Valve Covers
When I had my 64 Ford Fairlane GT it had 289 Hi perf emblems on the fenders. That's what I said it was while it was actually powered by a 427 Chevy. When they looked inderneath and questioned the even spaced header down pipes and rear sump oil pan I simply told them it was a 302 setup out of a...
