    Air Hose

    I bought one of these and have been pretty pleased with it. It is a real upgrade over pvc. https://www.harborfreight.com/38-in-x-50-ft-premium-rubber-air-hose-63006.html

    Green Gas Monkey Wrecked Truck being rebuilt.

    I tried to watch the one before last where he is putting that notch in. He seems like a boob to me. "I never seen anything like that before, I guess they are rivets, I am going to call them rivets." Proceeds to attach grinding wheel upside down on the tool. "Next we have to take off these...

    What new tools have you got lately?

    I would like to have a grinder and impact like yours. This is my set tossed on the kitchen table. Currently undergoing a surprise basement remodel. :disgust:

    What new tools have you got lately?

    The drill I had was so early the battery wasn't removable. I used it once and the charger port corroded and I couldn't charge it again. Bought corded tools from that day forward. We were putting metal roof on though and that cord was such a pita. While my friends laughed at me... They had dewalt...

    What new tools have you got lately?

    I had been itching for some cordless tools recently. I tried a craftsman in the early days of cordless tools and hated it so bad I swore them off until now. I had helped a couple friends do a little construction and cordless is the way to go now. So in the hopes of buy once cry once I dropped...

    Differences in 400 & 350 what will & will not swap?

    You might be right about that. It's been several years lol

    Differences in 400 & 350 what will & will not swap?

    The heads are not the same so beware there. You can use 400 heads on a 350 but you cannot put 350 heads (in stock form) on a 400. The 400 has additional oil passages that can be drilled by a machine shop into other sbc heads. The pattern is the same but you will be unhappy soon after swapping...

    LS Fest Anyone?

    I had a blast, met @Johnny Mac at the BluePrint engine tent, saw Tony Angelo and the twinpala, saw Cleetus McFarland and LeeRoy, and my youngest daughter had a good time too so it was totally worth the day. Brian Lohnes did all the track announcing too just like on TV. You guys should check it...

    LS Fest Anyone?

    I snagged these for reference on some sanitary installs. One with what looks like the OEM harness and computer. These couple are from a cool Scout that this guy was selling to fund the build of a garage to do more of this work. That is a scout body on a new Rubicon frame and an LS swap...

    LS Fest Anyone?

    These were some of the race cars out in the paddock cooling down we could wander through.

    Ran into Tony Angelo and saw the Twinpala from HotRod Garage.

    LS Fest Anyone?

    These were some unique swaps I saw around the autocross course. The Ferrari and Porsche were in the vendor alley.

    I am going Saturday unless I have the dates wrong. Lol I will see if I can learn anything though.

    LS Fest Anyone?

    I am in the market for an engine. I also intend to stop by. However, I have saved no money which will totally prevent me from saving any money :oops:. Maybe you can write me a rain-check or I might have enough by LS Fest next year :bawl:

    LS Fest Anyone?

    I know that feeling. My boss says just do whatever you normally would do but I hate to leave town and junk when at any minute something could go wrong and it's on me to fix from who knows where. haha

    LS Fest Anyone?

    LS Fest is next weekend in Bowling Green Ky. Is anyone from the board going? I am going to try and make it one of the days anyway but not taking anything to register. Just spectating.

    Stalls when pressing gas too fast

    The first link to my thread is a picture. I took it apart again to see what went wrong and the rubber plunger came off the pump rod and was just hung in the bottom of the pump well. I wasn't sure that's what was wrong until I took it apart. The pic shows the pump and plunger as two pieces...

    Stalls when pressing gas too fast

    I put a new accelerator pump in a rochester 2jet and it lasted one day. https://www.gmsquarebody.com/threads/69-gmc-c-15.24904/page-5#post-502772 I drove it a couple of days with it like that. This is what it would do in the garage. Ignore that goofy dog barking but maybe you can hear what the...

    5/7 drop??

    That looks like a drop spindle to me and you are all over that bump stop. Look at how it has busted up the rubber from banging on it. No doubt the age of the rubber is what has caused it to break up but you have been hitting the bump stop for sure. Your front springs must be super short.

    Old Tractors

    My old tractor is still working. I do have a newer one with a cab that gets the most work though.

    Stalls when pressing gas too fast

    I am sure someone has already said so but this is probably your accelerator pump. If your ignition is all right like your spark advance and stuff I am betting that is the only thing it could be. Maybe a huge vacuum leak but I doubt it. You can pretty easily check all three of those if you have...
