    1984 3 speed transmission

    Those truck Saginaw 3sps were very desirable way back when circle track racing. A bunch of different version/gear ratios. If I remember correctly we’d pull the cover and count some teeth, we wanted a 1:68 second gear?

    NP203 leaking. Replace or fix?

    They made a lot of 203s, and it seems theres always one for sale around me. They’re usually advertised $100-400.

    700R4 and 208C

    I shop FB Marketplace. This isn’t near Idaho, and who knows what it came out of but it could work with some $$ and effort.

    How to properly remove a cab without damage

    The cab is front heavy anyway, with the fenders on it it’s really gonna be tough. I’d disassemble the dog house if you can. I used the rear seat belt holes in the floor and the upper fender holes in the cab at the windshield to lift mine with the two post lift arms. Had to take one set of arms...

    Dash Foam

    You’ll have to experiment with what’s available to you… it will probably be expensive and frustrating… and in the end you’ll have way more time and energy involved than it’s worth… just my opinion. Try here to start...

    General Spring of KC

    There’s an old spring shop here in Louisville that I’ve depended on for years. They’ll build up leaf springs, change the arch, make Ubolts from stock right there in the shop.. depending on how busy they are, while you wait. They do all the heavy truck work for the city. The place is old, a huge...

    Tailpipe search

    Get on the Walker site, or perhaps call them, if anyone has it they will. But it’s gonna be $$$ pricey.

    4l60E ls swap k10 slips when turning

    I’m sorry, but I get lost trying to follow the actual typed wording with all the “extra” wording on your posts…

    Rear Brakes Locking Up

    There is always some confusion between “Combination” valves and “Proportioning” valves… Get a Wilwood valve similar to this one, make sure of the fitting size. Mount and plumb it into the rear brake line, and adjust it to where the rears don’t lockup. This is very popular in circle track racing.

    LED dash light replacements

    I used the 194 replacements offered by LMC. My eyes see a difference in brightness depending on which way they are installed.

    Wobbly power steering pump pulley

    All I can tell you is get the proper tool to remove the pulley…. It’s available fairly cheap.

    Rust coating for fill neck

    Id think you could just replace it for the same cost…

    Anybody buy from OBStrucksparts.org?

    Never dealt with them but I took one look at the .org site pics and I call it SCAM… wouldn’t send my money there. Of course they could be legit, those types of interior pics are all over the net.

    305 tbi heads on a 350 tbi?

    They will work, but will run out of power way before the 350 heads… We used to run them on circle track street stock cars, they were cheap and did seem to have more low end power… but wouldn’t achieve the same top end.

    Cracked TH350 case

    As previously stated, get another TH350 and go from there. Where I live there aren’t any small shops that do welding/fab for walk in type customers, it just isn’t profitable.

    1977 C20 Heavy duty with 11.15 drums?

    My ‘78 K20 has the 11 5/32” drums on a 14 bolt FF. You need to pull a drum to verify…

    Power brake booster recommendations?

    I can’t tell from the pic, but tall valve covers might have an problem fitting with a stock size booster, might have to go with a slightly smaller diameter booster.

    I put Dorman tanks in mine.. they fit.

    whats every body using.. looking for a new stereo head unit

    Amazingly my dash wasn’t butchered, so I went with the middle RetroSound unit. So far so good, Bluetooth works and it’s plenty loud enough for me. It appears stock.
