    Where does the engine smoothness come from?

    :) this subject came up awhile back for me. i took my father in law for a ride in the 85 k20 super double xtra heavy duty. forest road sightseeing. he remarked several times how 'smooth' it ran. now, it RIDES nice and rough but that 350 just hums along. (even with that poor ol' quadrajet...

    CB Radio Antenna Recommendations?

    my experience was the opposite :) only the people that lived in town where the population density afforded a return on the investment of the cable company got it. i was the antenna rotor for many years wishing those beautiful coax cables would be strung out to us one day. a 7' c-band dish...

    Parking Brake Light

    it should be on the parking brake lever/pedal mount. at the top. yes, the prop valve up front will illuminate the brake light constantly if it fails. good luck

    Fuel pump working but no gas to the carburetor maybe?

    is the fuel pump still mechanical or was it removed and an electric pump installed? sounds like you checked it correctly though by using it to pump into a catch vessel. filters are 'inline' by definition :) so is your filter in question a filter in the middle of a fuel hose or are we talking...

    Hooking up the electric choke

    just put +12v from anywhere you want on it. (i'd use switched so it doesn't drain the battery of course) good luck

    Calibrating speedometer.

    you have to change the speedo drive gear. in the transmission if you're talking about the 2 wheel drive truck in your profile.

    How do I use the tank selector on 1973 Camper Special

    looks like a push/pull stem rather than a twist left/right. good luck!

    New brake shoe is coming off of anchor pin

    you need to spin the star after you put the drum on. there is a lot of gap to fill after the drum goes on. good luck!

    how to identify the gear ratio on my truck

    the axle tube stamp will tell you pretty quickly. just get a wire brush and clean up the passenger side tube to find the stamped code.

    K20 c6p rear axle questions

    yes, my 85 k20 super double xtra heavy duty is C6P as well nice 13" drums but a semi-floater. docs from the maker says 3/4 trucks got semi regardless of options and 1 tons got the sticky-outy full floater. (in the year range we're talking about) regardless of what i think, it has what it has...

    K20 c6p rear axle questions

    sounds right! they definitely put the ff in the 3/4 in the earlier trucks. it'll be sweet regardless (the only thing i would get hung up on is the switch in parking/e-brake backing plates that changed from earlier to later trucks)

    K20 c6p rear axle questions

    84 or 85 k20 didn't get a ff the k30 did might take a look at that acquired axle. good luck!

    New motor... from 250 to 350

    nothing wrong with a good 350 transplant but the way you describe your truck, i'd leave the six in it. i'd spend my project money on the other things you listed. a locker in the rear of a 2wd might help out in a slick spot. cosmetics are always nice. i drove an f100 without assisted brakes so...

    6 lug conversion

    this is just a post about 8 lug brake setup in back, nothing more. my 85 k20 super double xtra heavy duty has the 13" drums in back. after i rebuilt them, i got a load of sand put in the back. like a million pounds worth. the rear brakes had no trouble stopping that load. 60mph to 5mph xtra...

    Dumb down headlight relays for me.

    yup, that's quite a bit of loss. i don't have anywhere near that on mine. that's why i 'figured' reducing path loss, as i stated in my post, wouldn't do much. if the OP situation is like yours, then absolutely.

    Dumb down headlight relays for me.

    i'll jot some things down, hopefully it'll help you decide on a path. relays allow a 'stock' switch that CAN'T handle much 'power' to use a load (super power headlights) that requires more. relays, in this case, wouldn't do much of anything for stock headlights or stock spec headlights. in...

    What's the midway point between long bed and short bed?
