    TH350 Removal

    I don't even drain them,remove any exhaust that's in the way,of course undo the three torque converter bolts,people will tell you buy a flywheel turning tool,completely unnecessary,you can turn the flywheel with the converter bolts themselves. I don't drain them,because I am lazy. It is a good...

    700r4 & Edelbrock TV Bracket

    Okay things are getting clearer,based on post 14 I thought you were saying you didn't have a TV bracket, I wondered how your transmission lived at all. Now I understand, you have TV just not an adjustable bracket. Read the stuff I told O.P. to read you will be just fine probably need no...

    Did this K20 come factory with catalytic converter?

    And if you start arqueing technicalities,instead if just trying to make them happy,they are going to discover your truck isnt right. Once they discover your truck isn't right,then the real fun begins. If they are willing to pass it and ask no further questions,put some cheap cats on it and go...

    700r4 & Edelbrock TV Bracket

    You keep saying it shifts at the right times. Shift times are primarily dictated by the governor, the TV cables primary function is to control the line pressure, insufficient line pressure and you will smoke the clutches.. You are playing with fire. Do you a constant pressure valve body?

    K5 almost killed me brakes to the floor

    If you are 2 man bleeding it go real slow,don't pump the pedal, you may or may not blow the combination valve off center,watch your brake light. If it comes on the shuttle is off center and you probably will not be successful bleeding the brakes. Unless you have a bypass pin you can depress...

    dumfounded

    Sorry, electric fuel pump get a 4 prong relay from the parts store hook terminal 30 to battery + , hook 87 to fuel pump. Hook terminal 85 to alternator exciter,hook 86 to ground. Now fuel pump will only run with the engine running. Same set up for fans but use a relay with a built in capacitor...

    dumfounded

    Now put all the wires back at the starter like you found them,2 of them were fusible links that provide all the power to the fuse box. Running all electrical loads to one source with a toggle switch is also a poor choice. As to wiring the alternator B+ goes to battery, terminal 1 goes to the the...

    Did this K20 come factory with catalytic converter?

    Be very quite about the engine not being original. Below I have posted all three pages of the EPA regulations regarding replacement engines. Read page 2 heavy duty vehicle section. Don't volunteer information,it may condemn you,don't nit pick,they can nit pick worse.

    Carb Adapter

    I totally missed the 1906 part just saw Edelbrock and adapter and stated my opinion Good catch by @ali_c20 1906 will bolt to spreadbore no adapter required. Whenever I see Edelbrock and carbureator I always think of the standard performer carb.

    K5 almost killed me brakes to the floor

    Stick your head under the dash and .ake sure there is a pushrod pinned to the pedal and going into the booster. Only reason I said anything about it,is your head line says New to you,making sure previous owner hadn't disconnected it for who knows what reason,and hadn't reconnected it. As for...

    K5 almost killed me brakes to the floor

    Booster won't make the pedal go to the floor,and I'd trust a used factory booster over a new aftermarket booster. As for making the pedal go to the floor,was the master full of fluid when you checked it?. If so I'd say the master is probablybypassing( not an uncommon problem) New master and...

    Please help. 84 blazer

    If ground were the problem the starter wouldn't crank. If the distributor clamp is missing he may not have a ground to the distributor though.

    Stolen!

    Instant on alarm no stickers no dash light no warnings of any kind. Leave the door unlocked ,so no vehicle damage and kill the fuel. They probably will run off as soon as they open the door and the horn goes off,so no damage done. It could even alert you via text. Fuel cut off so even if they...

    Stolen!

    I still say kill the fuel supply,let them get 75 feet into the road or middle of the parking lot before it dies and won't restart that's when it draws the most attention,people wanting to help,people honking until you move,calling 911 to report a stranded vehicle,etc. They make fuel cut off...

It was a real world test that documented drivability and mpg on a test mule run through the same challenges . It was very interestin,again...
