    95 Chevy water in passenger floor board

    We have the same thing on our 1995 Sub. My son said he found on a forum where some said it was coming from the cowl area. I am not entirely sure where, but rain water leaks in...

    C10 LIMITED SLIP VS LOCKER VS SPOOL

    I had an aggressive Detroit TruTrac in our daily driver 1995 Suburban and it worked great. You could hear the inner tire scrubbing when leaving the driveway. Until it didn't. But that may have been caused by a slightly bent axle tube putting a weird side load on the thing. After that one went...

    Newbie Vortec Cam Question

    Here is the engine in the boys truck.... And how it sounds... Again, this is a very mild 307.

    Newbie Vortec Cam Question

    Yup. You have a single plane intake. All cylinders feed from a single common plenum. Great for high speed. You want a dual plane intake. My son has the Summit Vortec heads on his 307 and is using this manifold from Ebay with good success. Well the first one had a porosity issue, but it has a...

    Paul's 1972 Truck...

    So we drove away from Jesus taking the wheel from him. I drove it bucking and snorting to a nearby high school parking lot where we could work on the tuning for a bit before we drove it the 30 miles home. Max reset the Edelbroke carb from where it was set. Then we fiddled with the timing and...

    Paul's 1972 Truck...

    Factory cab lights Disc brakes and 5 lug wheels. The tires look good, but they date code back to 2001. New ones will be installed soon.... It has headers that are welded to the dual exhaust. Kinda small and too quiet. But never fear as the Portland Swap Meet is coming up in a month and I am...

    Paul's 1972 Truck...

    So we took it on the test drive, or I should say Paul and Jesus went for a ride. You can hear it bucking and snorting. Jesus said it was just cold. Nah bruh, it has some sort of tuning issue. So they ran it around the block and it never evened out and they parked it. Paul liked it and it was...

    Paul's 1972 Truck...

    Some detail shots of the bumps and bruises. Ouchie my paint bro... It needs new weather seals on it as well as some window frame work as there appears to be a leak. My brother happens to be color blind, so I asked him if he could tell it was two colors of green. He said he knew it was two...

    Paul's 1972 Truck...

    So we crawl all over the truck out in NE Portland at 7:30pm. Kinda sketchy, but Jesus has a pretty nice house so it wasn't that bad. This truck lived in Washington at the coast from the last registered owners address. Somebody loved this one as well, just look at the bed. The bench seat shows...

    Paul's 1972 Truck...

    Don't get me wrong, it's a decent enough truck. Just not for what he wants and what I am willing to pay. Not my fault he over paid for it.

    Paul's 1972 Truck...

    So in the next week we inquire on a couple of trucks that would be great. Often meeting with no response to the questions.... Then we see this ad for a 1972 truck for $6,500. So Paul contacts Jesus Claudio and they set up a time for us to come and see it. Paul comes to my house so we can...

    Paul's 1972 Truck...

    So my older brother wanted a truck and finally started looking in the usual places. His budget is big enough that it could have been a totally cleaned up and resto modded cruiser if thats what we had found. But those often don't need much done to them and that isn't always the most fun. So our...

    Maxwellvis. A 20 year old with a 1949 Chevrolet truck.

    Not much has gone on with the truck. Well, he put the rest of the exhaust on it as it was overpowering inside the bare cab. We had to wear earplugs as it would resonate horribly. He still needs to put a crossover into the exhaust. But he loves it. For a simple 307, it rips and pulls hard past...
