    Proportioning Valves

    Yes, exactly what I meant about the quality of the widely available units on Amazon, etc... I contacted the Muscle Car Research guy when I was rebuilding my truck. He didn't have a kit for the valve on my truck, but sent me some common o-rings for them. Yes, there were many, many, different...

    What have you done to your square lately??

    Those shafts are difficult to find. After a long search I found a good used one at Novak.

    What have you done to your square lately??

    I've been looking for a factory style air cleaner for my '78 truck. This one came up on EBay for $75 and I jumped on it, it still has all the vacuum parts and isn't rusted badly. I'll get it cleaned and painted this weekend. The install will require some fab for the hot air sheet metal I'll make...

    LMC vinyl headliner vs USA1 perforated vinyl headliner

    I used the LMC unit. You'll need the trim pieces kit for it also. It worked great for my old build.

    Exhaust Manifold Help

    I got the black ceramic coated Hooker manifolds from Summit, they've held up well so far, but I don't drive the truck everyday and it's garaged.

    Trailer tires

    I run the Goodyear Endurance on my fifth wheel. The correct load range is the key on any trailering application, with always some allowance for loaded vs unloaded.

    Exhaust Manifold Help

    The factory AC brackets were long gone from my truck, I was replacing it with VA anyway. You will probably have to add washers or grind/fab a spacer... but that's a requirement with vehicles this old.

    This is the final result of my dash hack. I'm satisfied, didn't want a speedo that went that high but it's not offered.

    Exhaust Manifold Help

    I've been running the Hookers for about six months now. Worked fine with Vintage Air A/C brackets. No problems with them at all, fit & look great.

    NP 203 Transfer case Chain HV009 GM#13433

    I went through all of this when I started the rebuild of my truck almost two years ago. There aren't any 203 chains in stock anywhere, and any of the companies that can manufacture the chain aren't going to, as there is no demand for them. The NP208 will require driveshaft changes, but it's a...

    Which Impact Tool

    It can be tough with only one size impact. That 1/2" monster will break loose a lot of stuff... but you can't get it in a lot of places to do anything else. A 3/8" impact is a lot more handy to me, even my small 1/4" gets more use than the 1/2" one... Milwaukee is definitely a great tool but...
