    ignition switch kit/gear selector

    yes it's an automatic, and yes typically if it's acting up I can shift down thru all my gears and back up to park and this will help and allow me to start. so when it does work it starts fine but when it doesn't it's like the rack and sector aren't aligned to and it won't allow the lock to turn...

    ignition switch kit/gear selector

    So I just replaced my ignition cylinder on the collum of my 83 c10, I was hoping it would fix my problem but unfortunately it didn't. so when I was doing research on it I found this gear selector kit and just from the description of it online I figured it could be part of my problem. Pretty...

    I have a 1983 Chevy custom deluxe 2wd long wheelbase. I need to do the front break rotors and pads. I went to auto zone and apparently they need to know what type of rear brake shoes I have on it in order to figure out what type of rotor I need. Don't ask me why, makes no sense to me, and of...

    Transmission overfull

    I appreciate the feedback. Yea its only a lil over, I watched it pretty closely as I filled it up. It was just about a 1/4 in over after I took it for a spin. I think it'll be fine. Nothing's come spitting up out of the dipstick so that seems good

    Transmission overfull

    So I just did a th350 swap on my 83 c10. I had it right on the 'full hot' line when I was filling it up while it was running in park. I checked it several times and it seemed good. I took it for a spin around the block and parked it and checked it again and it read about a 1/4 in over the full...

    Torque spec's turbo 350 torque converter

I can't get a torque wrench on cuz of the clearance between the flex plate and oil pan, I'm wondering if I take the pan off will I have the room to get the torque wrench on. I'd rather not...

    Drive shaft lengths and questions

    So I have a 83 long bed custom deluxe and my tranny went out. The turbo 350 I had in it before had a 9 in tail shaft length but I have another one I want to put in it that is a 6 in tail shaft. I know the drive shaft won't work for it but I'm wondering if they even made a drive shaft with this...
