Replacing Radiator Core Support
Excellent! THAT'S about the kind of info I was seeking! Thank you............. -
Whutizit ??
I gotta think about that one for a sec....If you do not connect the plug, no power to the ignition switch? That means the switch is closed when no oil pressure is present? Then the switch opens when the pressure comes up? If so, wouldn't that shut the ignition down? Or, is this a 2 circuit...- Ronno6

Replacing Radiator Core Support
Has anyone out there replaced the riveted-on radiator core support brackets found on the 81-87 pickups? Dunno if they were always riveted on, but mine are. Did you drill the rivets out, or grind then off...or sawzall them ?? If you drill them, what size bit? How hard are the rivets? Good ol'... -

Still cannot ID engine
That may not be the case on crate engines.... Mine is definitely not original, as it is a 1 piece rear main seal in a 1984 C10.- Ronno6

I have pulled the 305 out of my 84 C10, and have the casting # It is: 10048164 OR 10046164 So far, in my web search , I have found a grand total of 1 reference to that #, from a G-body owner who was seeking the same info on his block that I seek on mine. He received no replies. I'm hoping y'all...- Ronno6

Urethane Filled Motor Mounts
Have any y'all filled your motor mounts with urethane? What urethane did you use? Is it worth the effort? 84 C10 355/Muncie 4 M20 3.73 Posi..........- Ronno6

Replacing fenders
AMD seems to be highly rated by Jegs and Summit. I purchased cab corners and outer rocker panel from Carolina classics for lower amounts than you have listed, and they were heavy gauge metal. https://www.carolinaclassictrucks.com/chevy-gmc-repair-panels.html There were some significant shipping... -

Replacing fenders
There are 3 CAPA certified manufacturers of 81-87 fenders, 2 in Taiwan, 1 in China, but I have not been able to find out who distributes them in the States. I will give mine a good once over to see if I can fix the rust and dents before I get too serious about replacing them. As indicated... -
Replacing fenders
I need an inner finder as well. It appears that, when packaged for pick-up, I should be able to get all 3 in the back of my F150 even with a tonneau cover. -
Replacing fenders
Both Summit and Jegs are very high on AMD stuff. ZERO returns (if they can be believed..) Starting to sound like that is the say to go........... I will talk to my body man about them,tho. -
Replacing fenders
I did pick up my brand spanky new radiator support yesterday. From the listing, I believed it to be genuine GM...it was not. It IS, however, CAPA certified, and I purchased it for less than the $$$ of shipping a new one! -
Replacing fenders
Thanks for that. As a coincidence. I had JUST called AMD ! Their warehouse in in Buford, a bit NE of Atlanta. I will have to plan a trip to my Son and his family. They are about 45 miles away, but we always get there early anyway. EZ to drive out, pick up stuff, then fight Atlants traffic (UGH... -

Hurst shifter, 16" IROC wheels and Dunlop Z-rated tires. Added rear frame rail connectors. Then, I replaced the rear leafs...- Ronno6

Replacing fenders
Huntsville is a right fer piece form me, but might bear checking out. I will ask a body shop or 2 about preferred fender sources. Any opinions on Sherman fenders?? They claim to be OEM quality and are affordable. Their 899-31L and R fenders are a bit pricey list price, but available right... -
Replacing fenders
I have seen some used ones which may or not be better than my originals. People seem to think that they have a collector value on their own, and are apparently planning to retire on the price............
