    My First LS Swap

    Got another question. My truck doesn't have AC at all and in a few years I want to install Vintage air. What do I need to do in order for the vintage airs A/C compressor to mount correctly on the LS engine? Also what preparations do I need to do now to make this happen?

    My First LS Swap

    Some questions right out of the gate: 1. Did you get to reuse your driveshaft or did you have to shorten/lengthen it? 2. I see mounts for the engine but not the transmission. What did you use? and where you able to use the crossmember from the old transmission? 3. And what solution did you...

    My First LS Swap

    Well looks like I am fixing to put my 1987 Chevrolet R10 pickup under the knife. I have been doing some research on this and I have heard positive things about it. Right now it currently has a 4.3 V6 with a nearly dead TH400 Transmission behind it. I am going to a 5.3 V8 with a 4L60E...

    Fuel Sender question

    If the sock gives me problems, I deal with that later. Plus the old sending unit still had the diesel sock on it and the truck ran fine. They just did a half ass job on the wiring harness.

    Fuel Sender question

    If I had put a gasoline sending unit in there I would have a Huge gap in place where the fuel pump would be at. These model diesel versions don't have a fuel pump in the tank.

    Fuel Sender question

    Because the PO had removed the 6.2L Diesel and installed a carburated 350 Gasoline motor in it. The old sending unit had been broken before and the sending unit itself was zipped tied to the sender body. It was ratcrapped. We ended up ordering a new diesel sending unit along with the...

    Fuel Sender question

    Nevermind. I found out by using this PDF: http://www.partdeal.com/media/wysiwyg/Stewart-Warner-Catalog.pdf It has the 240 ohm gauge in it. We ordered a new GM sending unit with the correct Stewart Warner gauge. (0-90 ohms)

    Fuel Sender question

    I know this isnt about a square but here it goes: I have a 1988 Pickup that my dad bought and it has aftermarket gauges in it. I was wondering if a factory OEM sender is/will work with the Stewart Warner fuel gauge? These is the gauges that this truck has...

    Question about the Squarebody in general

    How long did GM keep making the squarebody trucks after the year 1988? My dad may be possibly be trading his ford for a 89 Chevy 1 ton (3500). I was just wondering what the chances that it would be a square or would it be the GMT400/OBS style? I googled pictures for 1989 Chevy t ton and I...

    No starting problem

    I took it to Autozone and they hooked it up to a machine. It tested good. I am thinking about just dropping a new Distributor in it.
