starter rebuilding - advice needed
Also I would suggest (if it hasn't been mentioned already) you check out the unit repair manual for your your vehicle or any year close to it. There should be detailed procedures for rebuilding starters, alternators and other units. It might even be available online in the research section of...- mrdap

Do I need an Alternator upgrade?
Well here's my two cents... Like everything else it depends on the application and how you're using it. I don't like to see my voltmeter go below 13 volts. With a standard 10Si or 12Si, when I'm at idle with AC on, blower on high all four headlight bulbs lit, windshield wipers running, it's...- mrdap

10W-40 for Chevy 350
The main reason GM and Chevrolet and all the other manufacturers have gone to recommending lighter weight oils, (such as 10W-30) is to reduce their corporate fuel economy MPG ratings. Average to cost millions of vehicles maybe they gain a point here and. I doubt whether an individual would ever...- mrdap

What ya'll think of these new wheels/tires? I dig em. Any shock suggestions?
I like the wheels they look great. As far as shocks go, I've had the yellow and blue Bilstein gas shocks on my '82 C20. They're good quality shocks and they'll last a long time but I find that they ride very roughly. I by far prefer the Rancho adjustable RS9000 shocks. -

Getting quotes for paint/body work
It's very highly dependent upon what your expectations are, what level of excellence do you want for your paint job, is it metallic paint or solid color, and more. Also highly dependent upon the type of paint shop you're going to. Obviously a custom show car oriented shop is going to be more...- mrdap

Preferred Differential Lubricant
Many thanks! Very useful information. This is exactly the sort of thing I'm looking for. For 14 bolts, it seems that a 75W-140 synthetic is the way to go. Unfortunately it doesn't address the issue of posi traction additives or anything like that. From my experience with motorcycles, I learned...- mrdap
