    Just fitted an 81+ front lip on my 77. Pics

    Hey guys, I haven't posted on here on a while, I lucked out at the pick n pull a couple days ago and scored a lip off an 83. With some minor drilling and heat gun work, bit of trimming this is how it turned out.

    Custom aluminum door trims

    Sorry guys I haven't got to the dash insert yet, I ended up doing an engine rebuild so I'm in the middle of that right now, I figured it was more important to do first

    Just picked up Vortec 062 heads, advice?

    That's what I was thinking, so I guess I need to find one single pushrod...

    Anyone know if I need to use the pushrods from the vortec engine or the stock ones from mine? The ones from the vortec truck are shorter, but the same otherwise. One of my stock ones was bent.

    Poor Man Valve Job

    Just burn the deposits off with a handheld propane torch, works great! I'm literally doing it right now.

    Running wayyy too rich, mechanical fuel pump?

    I've been reading on a few other forums that this is pretty common. The floats are adjusted spot on, and the needles/seats are brand new. It's getting enough air I'm sure of that, all signs point to the fuel pump at this point. I'm going to find a low pressure fpr and try that out, but first...

    Hmmm, at a cold choke position how far open should the primaries be? Carter 9635/ edelbrock 1406

    Running wayyy too rich, mechanical fuel pump?

    Ok guys, I have had an increasingly worse problem with over fueling going on. At first I figured it was the carb, (carter 625 4bbl), so I rebuilt that back to factory spec. Re-installed and test drove, problem was still as bad, if not worse. Engine has been misfiring like crazy and spitting...

    who are we even talking about here anymore? I was looking at the summit cam to be a cheapskate, should work fine with the vortec heads at max .466 lift. I might do a minimal amount of machine work just to be on the safe side. with that being said, anyone with a square bore vortec compatible...

    I left the hardware there, but I made sure to take the valve covers, I'm aware they're different. I think a mild lift cam should be a good upgrade with them

    Went to the wreckers today to look for a pair of rally wheels, ended up pulling a set of heads. Found the wheels too. So anyway, I know I need the proper manifold to run the heads, I'm looking to see if I need anything else, or if I would greatly benefit by adding anything else. I'm fairly new...
