    What have you done to your square lately??

    Cap, rotor, module,wires,plugs. Oil,oil filter,air filter&breather filter also gave it a bath. That’s enough for today. It’s time to watch some football and have a couple ( maybe 3 or so ) beers.

    700r4

    As other Folks have said, have a reputable shop go threw yours. On 700r4 there is a difference between a 2wd and 4wd transmission case and it will be a roll of the dice on what case you get from a rebuild house.

    90 5.7 TBI idle surging

    The 5.7k has a problem with the gasket between the tbi and intake manifold leaking( I sold a lot of them in the 90's). I would spray some carb. Cleaner at the base of the tbi and see if it surges. Good luck!

    Swapping to manual hubs

    I installed warn hubs about two years ago,should have done it years ago. Like others have said the auto/hubs are a weak spot. They are easy to change over ( very clear instructions). I get better fuel mileage and performance. The only downside is you must lock them in and drive a couple of miles...

    What is this????

    A Chevrolet parts dept. can ID that. On the RH (Passenger side) tube about 5 inches from the housing on top there is a 3 lettered code stamped on the tube. Sometimes it can be a real bear to find, a person hand stamped it. They will be able to tell you the year and what it came out of and what...

    700r4 lockup???

    Folk, I'm not very good at asking questions. I guess what I should have asked is will a 180 temp thermostat still lock up the torque converter?

    700r4 lockup???

    Thank you for your input! My truck has fed./high alt. smog,no ecm or pcm so it IS controlled by engine temp and vacuum. What I am concerned about is running a 180 thermostat when 195 is what's called for. I guess I need to find out at what temperature the thermostat vacuum switch opens. Thanks...

    700r4 lockup???

    This question is related to towing. I have a 1984 k1500. When I'm in overdrive an shift to drive manually does this lockup the torque converter? I appreciate you input!

    SBC 350?!?!?

    Let's try this again ( fat finger pushed wrong button). Where the head meets the block ( front) on the passenger side (rh) there is a flat spot on the block. The will be a 2 or 3 letter code stamped in the flat spot. If you take that to a Chevrolet dealer parts dept and if the still have the old...
