    Update- (found some)Big block valve cover hold downs

    Yes, I’ve looked online quite a bit- don’t want chrome (using stock valve covers) and the only black set is either $19 plus $13 shipping from Summit (for just one valve cover) or a set for both from CRF that’s about $32 and would do both sides but take almost two weeks to get here. Was just...

    TH400 trans mount bolts

    That’s what I was thinking too, just wondering if someone knew offhand. 87 was a real mixture of SAE/metric.

    TH400 trans mount bolts

    Noticed I am missing one of the two bolts that go through the trans mount on the rear of my 87 R20 Burb's th400. Can anybody help me out with the bolt size/length needed so I can go grab one?

    Custom dash 4x10 replacement

    Had these new 2.75 dash speakers laying around from a previous project. Decided to make a bracket for them to mount in the dash where the 4x10 was. Turned out pretty decent. Easy afternoon project with some 1/8” ABS sheet and minimal tools.

    Fuse and ground block connectors

    Similar location used in the GMT400? Those are easier to find in the junkyard.

    Fuse and ground block connectors

    Thanks Matt, but that looks to be a male connector. I need a female to plug onto that ground block pictured.

    Fuse and ground block connectors

    Hard to find squares in salvage yards around here. The ground block connectors are what I need to source.

    Fuse and ground block connectors

    So, I think a I’ve found the pack of multi colored connectors from Autowire @ Summit to tap into some of the empty fuse block spots. But, does anyone know of a part number and where to get a factory type connector to use with this ground block under the dash? I’d prefer to use an appropriate...

    wiper/turn signal switch question

    So I mistakenly ordered the wrong wiper/turn signal stalk for my 87 Custom Deluxe, which needed a new stalk due to the old plastic being brittle and breaking. Truck has cruise but no intermittent wipers. I ordered the stalk for cruise with intermittent wipers. Are the plugs the same, so I can...

    Suburban Carpet Thread

    Well, OP seems to have disappeared. But, I’m a bit confused because I see ACC and also OC as suppliers. I live in Alabama. ACC is an AL company. I went to there main office in the early 90’s and purchased a carpet for. Third gen F body. The quality was far better than the OEM stuff, backing...

    Wiring electric choke TBI to carb swap

    Matt, I see the smog pump has a pink/blk wire so that may be the easiest option. Found these wiring diagrams on another forum so I’m gonna drop em here for future reference. Says 88-98 but I think as far as the TBI it helps for my 87. If anyone has a diagram for 1987 454 TBI Burb I’d love to see it.

    Wiring electric choke TBI to carb swap

    I’m in need of a keyed 12v source for the electric choke on my Qjet that is replacing the TBI. I’m wondering if any of the TBI harness or smog pump harness could provide an easy keyed power source for this purpose, since all that wiring is right there on the passenger side of intake anyway...

    TBI coil pigtail question

    So, working on the TBI to carb swap. Can somebody tell me what this pigtail with the white wire is on the coil plug harness ? It was taped to the wire loom. It’s an 87. Wondering if it would’ve been for a factory tach option?

    Auxiliary fan replacement

    I have all those codes, except the AU code. I have an external trans cooler, mounted next to the aux fan- with what seems to me to be factory bracket. I’m replacing it with a Hayden 512 this week, so I’ll confirm that. Also have the oil cooler. 3.73 gears according to the glovebox. I did have...

    Auxiliary fan replacement

    So, the OE auxiliary fan finally bit the dust. Sourced a nice replacement from Summit- made by same company that made the original. Mounted it to the OE cage/bracket easily, cut the connector off the original and soldered it onto the new fan wires. If anyone needs to replace theirs, this is...

    Fuel tank/pump replacement

    Yes, I know what’s required and already have the needed parts for the swap. Never planned on dropping tank- but PO apparently didn’t bother to spend $10 on a filler neck hose when they replaced the tank/pump, and it dry rotted and started leaking. So, I figured if I had to drop it down to get...
