    84 K10 gas tank strap perches

    Thanks Swims, I called LMC and they said they had them. I thought they would be harder to find than that.

    84 K10 gas tank strap perches

    Hey guys, I had an air leak in my drivers side tank on my 84 k10. It appears to occasionally come and go so I am having a shop look at it. They haven't done anything yet though because the straps that support the gas tank are bolted to some perches that they said are very rusty and may not be...

    Which engine/trans/converter should I go with?

    Also I found this post in another thread: Is this picture something that I could take into a muffler shop and have them do to my k10? Right now I have straight duals from header to header. When I get the engine and trans done I would also like to get some headers and put in an exhaust like...

    Which engine/trans/converter should I go with?

    I'm glad I made this thread. I figured I'd rather drive the k10 then worry aout mpg's. I am going to get the th350 rebuilt. Then get the engine rebuilt or buy the gmpp 260hp/350ci crate engine. I will only drive this in bad winter conditions which my DD can usually handle, its an 03 Toyota...

    Which engine/trans/converter should I go with?

    Unfortunately, I'm the only person I know personally who seems to even care about what their vehicle looks like other than being the newest vehicle. I thought this may be a problem based on other forums I have read. Is this because the trans will be worked too hard with 3.08's and 33''...

    Which engine/trans/converter should I go with?

    The truck actually came with an open style air cleaner. So I'll just get a thermac air cleaner setup when I replace the engine.

    Which engine/trans/converter should I go with?

    I tried looking at the numbers on the block but there are accessories in the way on the front and the firewall is too close on the back. I'll try looking again today and see if I can't get them. I don't think I want to go with efi right now, that will be a consideration after I get the truck's...

    Which engine/trans/converter should I go with?

    I apologize, I was told it is a 355 but I have no way to verify this. I'm not terribly knowledgable on chevy engines or trucks in general, this is my first one. I am very open to suggestions, the gas mileage isn't the biggest deal for me because I can afford gas for as much as I do drive it. I...

    Which engine/trans/converter should I go with?

    I have 3.08 gears. The truck came equipped with a 305 and 700r4. The truck came with a Holley 600cfm. I don't know much about the engine. It is supposedly a 350 that was rebuilt 10,000 miles ago, along with the th350 but they both leak oil and trans fluid. Which makes me think I'd rather just...

    Which engine/trans/converter should I go with?

    Hey everyone, I have my 1984 square with a 355/th350/np208. I am currently running 33 inch tires and would like to stick with 33's and my current lift. I don't know how high my lift is I'll post a picture and see if you guys can tell me or if you can refer me to any reference guides that will...

    Truck Won't Start, No gas to Carb

    Thanks for the help everyone. There were multiple problems. The first was that the valve was bad. The second was that there was an air leak in the passenger side fuel line. So it's up and running now. On to the next task!

    Truck Won't Start, No gas to Carb

    Thanks for the suggestions everyone. I won't get to go look at the truck again until next weekend but I'll definitely do those tests and work on the selector valve if I need to.

    Truck Won't Start, No gas to Carb

    I am unable to get the truck to get fuel with either tank selected. If it is the selector valve how hard are those to replace, as in does a tank need dropped or anything and where is the selector valve located? The selector valve does make noise, just like it did when I know it was working.

    Truck Won't Start, No gas to Carb

    I took my truck (84 K10) to my in-laws house, about an hour and a half from where i live, to get firewood. We drove the truck back to their woods through a flat field with a small hill before the woods, loaded it, drove back to their house (like half a mile). We probably placed like 200-300 lbs...

    New From Toledo, Ohio

    Thanks everyone. Yea, it could use some work on the lights! That's one of the first things I'll do this weekend. I have one of many questions I'm sure to ask. On my gauge cluster My speedo works, my fuel works, my engine temp works but my oil pressure gauge does not work neither does the...
