    Turbo 350 overhaul

    Tomorrow I'm going to remove the worn out turbo 350 from my Scottsdale and give it to a local shop to rebuild. They've offered to do custom work to it since it will be in a big truck that gets man handled a lot.. So just wondering what are the main things you guys change or upgrade in the...

    New to the carbureted motor game, need insight

    Thanks for the info man, gears definitely haven't been changed from factory. I'm thinking of changing the rear end gears but not sure what ratio. It is a daily driver and my only vehicle at this point, has 4 inch lift and 33" tires. 4.10? ps- I only drive about 5-10 miles per day however...

    Hey guys, I'm completely new to this forum. This is my first thread and in my driveway is my first Chevrolet. I've owned a '95 Ram 5.9L, a '01 Ranger Edge, a '98 Mustang, and now FINALLY as of 2 days ago I have a 1980 K10 pickup. 4x4 with turbo 350 trans I believe. I'm a dealer tech for...
