    TBI requirements for engine upgrade

    That's what I was getting at by stating larger injectors or adjustable fuel pressure regulators make global changes, but it didn't seem to be registering.

    is this ep381 fuel pump used?!

    Advanced isn't much of a shock, they'll take back anything and most people won't look or care.

    TBI requirements for engine upgrade

    You could just replace the injectors, but I have my doubts that you'll need simply MORE FUEL at every point in the map. Most likely, you'll need timing, and fuel, at some points in the map, and not so much at others.

    1979 K20 5.3 Swap

    Speed Engineering are the best bang for the buck, they fit as is, and are very affordable.

    TBI requirements for engine upgrade

    454 TBI's have physically larger bores, and either an 85 or 80lb/hr injectors depending. However, simply globally dumping more fuel isn't a great solution. Your stock TBI pump should have sufficient volume, they use the same pump on a 454. An adjustable regulator will help, but again, it's a...

    The pink wire that went to the coil is hot during key on, crank, and run.

    Yeah, that's really odd and bad luck lol.

    is this ep381 fuel pump used?!

    Here's one from a random thread on the internet, I'll check one on the way home to verify, but those screws should be bright copper.

    is this ep381 fuel pump used?!

    That's not a new pump. The markings are just Q.C. stuff, but the screws shouldn't look like that.

    Bvllsh!t on craigslist.

    I had my TH350 up for 200 or 250 for quite a while. Got mad and listed it at 350 and it sold in a day, to a guy who had been watching the whole time.

    52in to 56in spring swap

    This is correct, I've even done it with Astro van parts.

    235/85 Or 265/75 tires

    235/85 is kind of an odd size nowadays. Going to a 265/75 is only a size increase of .8 inches. You won't even notice it. You will have a more "normal" tire that's easier to source if you get flats in the armpit of the earth somewhere though.

    What have you done to your square lately??

    I also got some thing's cleaned up and powder coated, must have been the weekend for it lol.

    Powder coat frame

    Water neutralizes acid. If you left it sitting there, it would be a problem, but if you wipe it off, no harm done.

    Powder coat frame

    Regular paint is fine as long as it has good adhesion, that's all you're really looked for. If it get's chipped, and it will, touch it up.

    What have you done to your square lately??

    We were supposed to have high 40's this weekend last time I looked, like Sunday. Then it pooped 8" of snow and now it's 29 lol. Looks like another weekend in the garage for me.

    That's a pretty nice seat, kinda weird to post it while the engine is out though lol.

    No, I'm just messing with you lol. Ironic, my town is not very large, I'm going to have to find the guy now and take a peek. It's highly likely to be one of the in-laws.

    Long bed to short bed conversion

    My intention wasn't to talk down to you, or anyone else. I am an engineer in my day job, not a welder lol. I often have to reel people in, colleagues, and co-workers. KISS is the best, usually. I often run into people, who ask, "why'd you stupid engineers make it so I have to take my vehicle...

    Bvllsh!t on craigslist.

    It's a pet peeve of mine when people sell rusty stuff with all the panels, like it's no big deal lol. I bought a 69 Charger like that back in 97 or so, it was way beyond fixing at that time, both in my skill and the value of it. Dude gave me new quarters a trunk floor, and a catalog with the...
