    Transmission is causing engine to stall

    Probably timing and or carburetor related. Set it with a light, VA plugged. Check real good for vacuum leaks.

    OEM grille for '78 GMC Sierra Classic

    I used some "filler" mesh and a few screws, sheetmetal brackets and super glue. Oh yeah and a can of black spray paint and roll of masking tape.

    Replacement electric external fuel pump suggestion?

    Just mount it in a good location, away from exhaust heat, not too high above the tank.

    OEM grille for '78 GMC Sierra Classic

    GMC grilles are hard to find. Dont throw your old one away. Glue it back together and paint it. Getting creative and fixing it, might be a better option.

    New Pulley Installation on a new Power Steering Pump

    I guess that got some of your attention... innuendo haha. But I didn't really intend it that way... Anyway, you just have to try it out and see if it is going to fit easily. It is usually a press fit, at least most of the ones that I have done over the years, but sometimes it just slips right...

    New Pulley Installation on a new Power Steering Pump

    It will fit. Trust in GM. Some are tighter than others. Tight is good, you don't want it to be too loose.

    292 to 427T industrial swap, in C30. Many questions on fitment.

    Big block trucks use different motor mounts than small block trucks. The bolt pattern on the frame is different. Not sure about 6 cyl, but it seems like the whole front K frame is different. Do you have pictures of the 6 cyl truck K frame? The tall block will "work", but will take some creative...

    Do all stock engines in a motorhome have a rv cam?

    If it came in an RV then it must be an RV cam. Just like the tires on an RV are RV tires and the seats are RV seats. Haha... But really, it is probably the same as the truck 454 on the same years. RV cams are probably a non factory upgrade, to give a little more power.

    Just brought home an 85

    Cool. Its black and a GMC. It doesn't look too bad. By the time that you get done with that "deep cleaning" you should have a good knowledge of every part of it. You will have a nice ride when you get it running.

    Brush Guard/ Push Guard

    There was a couple of different GM styles in the 70's. That looks like it may be from an 80s GM. Hard to say without a bumper to compare it to.

    Hubcap restoration

    Show us some more pictures of that truck and the other hub caps, please. Is that the good one or one of the bad ones that you are showing?

    I've come here to complain!

    I usually have to do everything at least twice. The first time to figure it out, the second time to do it right. In some cases, 10 times... It gets easier after the first time, Hang in there.

    1974 C-10 Shorty Alert 6 Granny

    I see, you forgot to put oil in that Tahoe. Bummer. I hate working on newer trucks. I would rather work on that old Ranch beater. Just click on your name and then click on the number 28 under your "posts" and all of your posts come up.

    Fuel pump pushrod won’t slide into block

    I will add to that, mount it away from the exhaust, where some air can blow on it. I quit using a L98 in one of my squares, because I got tired of dealing with the electric fuel pump. The one that I have has the flat spot on the block, but it is not drilled at all.

    1974 C-10 Shorty Alert 6 Granny

    I know what you mean, my yard is too full with too many projects already, as well. But when I see opportunities like those two trucks advertised right next to each other, the gears start turning in my head...

    1974 C-10 Shorty Alert 6 Granny

    The ad right next to it is another '74 with all the drivetrain etc, but no title for $2000. Buy them both and put them together and have a nice hot rod with a title.

    Fuel pump pushrod won’t slide into block

    EFI block, probably wasnt finish machined for the mechanical fuel pump. It could probably be finished if it was out of the truck and dissasembled. One of the ways that GM saved a little money, since they no longer put mechanical fuel pumps on them. the cam may not even have lobe on it for the...

    What seat do I have?

    It must be out of a crew cab or a suburban, since it doesn't fold forward.

    Sac religious bench swap.. Hear me out.

    Foam, duct tape and an indian blanket seat cover over that. I always hate when they have modern seats in them.

    Power Steering pump

    It might just need a new o-ring seal between the pump and the reservoir can and or the o ring on the pressure hose to pump. If it works good and doesn't make alot of noise, you might be better off keeping the original and re-sealing it.. Sometimes the reman'd Delcos make alot of noise. (Mine...
