    Timing light recommendations

    That's a pretty big cam. It will probably like alot of initial advance. You running vacuum advance?

    Timing light recommendations

    2nd the Innova dial back timing light. The light is very bright. The dial back feature is way nicer than trying to use a degree sticker that always flies off the balancer. O'reillys and other auto parts stores carry them in stock.

    Mark IV 454 Engine Build

    I would go with what ever domed pistons you need for 10:1 comp ratio and a hydraulic roller cam with intake duration in the mid 200s at .050".

    Wiring harness options

    I just did my 79 K30 with American Auto Wire kit #510347. Came out great. The alternator power wiring and main cab power arrangement is much better than the stock setup. Hardest part was mastering the old delphi-packard crimp connectors.

    Gas Gauge pegs at E

    Positive wire from sending unit top terminal to fuel gauge is grounded. If you pull the positive wire off the top terminal the gauge should read way past full.

    Oil Leak to Header Pipe

    Can't tell for sure but its either the oil cooler port or the oil pressure sending unit port.

    Rattle can noise when accelerating from stop

    You mean lifter noise. Maybe the dist. cap got bumped and advanced the timing a little too much?

    K30 power steering return hose questions

    Thanks. It took forever to bleed the power steering and was wondering if the hose connections could have been the problem.

    K30 power steering return hose questions

    Hi Folks My K30's power steering pump has two return ports. One faces up and one is angled down. I have the power steering box draining into the upward facing return port. The hydrobooster drains to the downward facing port. Is this correct and does it matter which return goes where?
