    Heater core requirement for new engine install break-in/ test?

    No issue at all. When I did the same thing (with possibly the same motor, the GM SP350, 357 HP?) I joined the hoses that normally go to and from the heater core together using an adapter for the two different hose sizes. When it came time for the Vintage Air install, I added coolant and burped...

    I've used both Painless and American Autowire. I was much happier with the American Autowire harness. But no they're not cheap.

    Low and behold, 68 weeks after ordering my door panels, they arrived today. Not to give credit where credit is not due, this was the result of some legal encouragement for them to produce. So USA1, just TELL PEOPLE WHEN THEY ORDER it could be a year or more. Your product is awesome, your...

    '84 bedside sheet steel stock gauge?

    Where are you ordering from? I don't know the stock gauge but I got a whole new long bed from LMC and I was actually impressed with the quality of the metal compared to original.

    Sanding 81 truck frame?

    I did mine all by hand, looking back at the amount of time and effort I defintely wish I just took it to get blasted. I used wire wheels, and what was most effective was those sponge looking paint stripper wheels in an angle grinder. Then used KBS frame coating (smilar to POR15) and top coated...
