    Ok, now I'm down to just this black wire with this "thing" on the wire. What does this wire go to? Sent from my SM-N960U using Tapatalk

    Engine wiring

    I am finally wiring up my big block in my 74 C10. I am installing an MSD distributor and think I e figured out the starter wiring. I tra ed the yellow wire from the starter and it is spliced to a pink wire to the firewall and another yellow wire to the distributor. Is this pink wire a...

    74 starter wiring help

    Big fat Chevy noob here. I pulled my engine about a year ago to put a big block in and forgot where these wires go. I had labels but they were so covered in grease I couldn't read them. I've figured out that one of them is supposed to be purple and goes to the "s" terminal. I'm guessing the...

    What have you done to your square lately??

    It's nothing special from what I've figured out so far. It's a truck motor, 2 bolt main, peanut port heads. It has been enlarged to a 468 and has a slightly bigger cam from what I've been told. It came from a friend's dad's truck so I know it is a pretty solid runner with less than 5000 miles...

    What have you done to your square lately??

    I finally got this big guy bolted in! These things are kind of new to me, so I have to look up pictures on Google a lot to figure out where things are supposed to go. Lol! Now I just have to do all of the other little things. It sure does fill up the engine bay nicely compared to the old 350 I...

    5/6 drop on '74 LB

    I'm not sure what year the wheels are from....2010 Camaro SS I think. The price was right and they are Chevy. I did have to run adapters. (1.25 front, 1.50 rear) I haven't done a notch yet and probably will as I only about 1.5" of clearance between the rear axle and frame...

    5/6 drop on '74 LB

    Well I've been chipping away at this for the last few months. I only get a night or two per week to beat on this thing but it is coming along. The kit is a 5/6 street edge kit from ebay. Overall I'm pretty happy with it. The rear is lower and I think it is a combination of sagging...

    Removal of helper leaf in rear

    I'm glad this subject came up. I am in the middle of lowering the rear. I am doing a flip kit and short shocks, bump stops removed. I'll have to see if it is sitting low enough after I do all that. I may need to do shackles and notch and maybe the over load spring too. I'll just have to...

    What have you done to your square lately??

    Started tearing my front end apart to replace the control arm bushings, ball joints, and install the drop spindles and springs. I've never messed with any of this truck stuff before, so this should be interesting. ________________________________________ Fat fingered from my Note 4 with Tapatalk

    '74 LB from Arkansas

    I acquired this from father-in-law who bought it new. This is my first American car, first truck, first automatic and first V8! I've had it awhile but just recently started to do something with it. Ive had some metal replaced and a cheap paint job done to it. I'm currently in the middle of...

    Tranny swap

    Sorry to piggyback off your post but have the same question but didn't want to start a new thread. I have a turbo 400 with 5000 miles that has been sitting in a shed for 7 years. Is there anything I should do to it before I install it? __________________________________________ Fat fingered...

    lets see some square bodies on some 20'' rims and up

    This is good thread. I was thinking about putting 20's on my '73 and was wondering how they might look. Anyone out there put any of the 20 inch wheels from the new Camaro SS? Also, if anyone posts the pics of the wheels on their vehicle, could you post the specs on how much its lowered...
