    Trim codes 77B and 77I

    It looks like you have the exact color package as my 87 burb. You have 77D interior which is Burgundy and 72U exterior which is 72 apple red (I have 90 Steel as the 2 tone lower color). Many time you can find the color marked on the backside of the velour door panel insert or even the backside...

    Door Seal to big

    The seals from LMC, Classic etc... are all aftermarket and fit poorly. If you are looking for actual OEM fit you need to contact Mr A' Chevy truck parts. HIs name is Jon Addington and he is the only place I have ever found actual OEM fit. He uses NOS seals and has them reproduced, this is as...

    Name brand or budget carb?

    Some don't like Edelbrock, but my last 3 burbs as well as my current 87 which i just swapped from TBI to carb, I have had much better luck with edelbrock than the Q jet or holley's. I just put a Edelbrock QVS2 and so far it is the best set up on a carb 350 yet. There are generic Q Jets out there...

    Remove accessories from this old truck?

    I had the same running boards, I pulled them off the first weekend I got the truck. They are "butt ugly: in my opinion. :) Same goes with the bug shield. Just because something was in style in the 80s does not make it look good today

    What have you done to your square lately??

    I am a bit old school I guess I prefer a good carb over TBI plus I hate all of the smog junk and removing most of them does not work well with running the stock TBI. I left the CPU and harness in the truck in case I ever go back or sell it to someone who wants to go back to TBI

    What have you done to your square lately??

    I see you are using the edelbrock AVS, I just converted my 87 TBI to carb and using the same setup with an edelbroock air gap manifold. Which of the 2 front small vacuum ports did you use for your dist. vacuum advance? Did you use one for the charcoal canister as well? I see your 3/8 port in...

    Vacuum Reservoir

    If you are going away from vacuum actuated HVAC controls and actuators I would say you do not need it but see attached PDF Vacuum diagram. This one is for an 87 with TBI.
