    Cbc pro chassi ls header options??

    That looks like a tight squeeze, sorry to say I have no suggestions for you. Cool looking build tho, best of luck!

    The 383 is finally going in!

    Might be a little easier to install the motor with the headers off for the sake of clearance issues dropping in. Personally I’d pull the distributor for the reason posted above, it only takes a fraction of a second to destroy it vs the few minutes to remove it.

    Complete Re-Wire 1978 Scottsdale 4x4

    If your set on going all the way painless and American auto wire have end to end kits that are well made, I personally went with painless but you’ll get the same results with either. It can be done in a weekend (I did it in two days) but plan on 4 days minimum if you aren’t comfortable with...

    Rear Window Sliding Glass

    I have a similar dark slider, I love it! Having trouble backing up at night? Just open the window!

    Are there different rear windows from 73-75 and 76-87??

    The rear window is a pain to seat on your own, with suction cups and the rope tool it took two nights to get mine to fully seat. Take your time, use some form of lube and don’t give up.

    Down on power, sounded different.

    Last time I was down on power I found this joy in the top end, keep in mind my vac gauge was swinging wildly at idle, couldn’t really call it an idle tho lol.

    Which wiring harness

    When I priced it out I included the new socket kit and it ended up being about $80 cheaper than aaw. It’s close enough to be a wash for most. My brother used the aaw on his 68 mustang and I’d say they are Apple to apples. The real value to the painless kit is the instructions that came with it...

    Which wiring harness

    The truck is a 73 c20 camper special that originally had a 454 however when I got it it had a sbc 350 bfgoodwrench motor in it, papers in the glovebox said it was installed in ‘91. No idea if the pulley came with it or was from an old stash. It was a factory a/c truck but it didn’t have a...

    Which wiring harness

    It’s hard to read at this point but the stamping on it seems to read 3923 898. Anyone that needs one can have it if your ever heading through the Coachella valley. Asking price is a cold beer and a few tall tales.

    Which wiring harness

    The alt bracket and 4 belt pulley were on the truck when I got it, no idea on the story of how they came to live on there but they are gone now, in fact the motor in those photos only stayed in the truck for a few weeks after the wiring project. This is how she looks now.

    Bushing and ball joint part #’s for 3/4 ton

    Howdy all, In the never ending rebuild of my ‘73 c20 camper special I’m finally ready to tackle the suspension. I know that ball joints and bushings vary from the 1/2 ton to the 3/4 ton but I’m having trouble figuring out what I need for control arm bushings and ball joints. Does anyone have...
