    Edelbrock carbs on a 350 sm blk

    I've had a 1411 (750 CFM) on my 396 Camaro for over 20 years now. It's been on the Outer Banks & up Mt Mitchell as well as several laps around Charlotte Motor Speedway. I'm more than satisfied with it. I also have a 1406 on my 76 Silverado. HS

    What have you done to your square lately??

    Those inserts (China) stink! I've not had great success with those holding. I've learned to use the factory adjuster along with 1/4-28 nuts & flat washers. It's a more permanent fix but unfortunately it can be difficult reaching some of the retaining nuts when adjusting.

    Electronic Shift NP203/NP205 Doubler

    Welcome to the site & let me express how envious I am of what would also be my dream truck. As for the old cast iron cases, I'd leave them to be shifted manually. Newer aluminum cases get by with shift motors, but I'm not a fan due to lack of reliability. I'm old school & love twisting hubs &...

    1990 suburban cluster

    I have one from a '91 V10. It's not a tach though. HS

    New to the forum

    There should be several in the tech sections. Also, make certain those are 8 on 6.5 and not the newer metric bolt pattern that the '11 and newer trucks use. HS

    New to the forum

    Welcome in from the Ole North State. You have two great looking trucks judging by the pics. There should be plenty of info on wheels in some of the past threads here on the site. HS

    Big block running hot. Can’t figure out the issue

    Make sure you've got the correct water pump for whatever drive belt you have too.

    Olds 350 diesel to sbc swap

    I'm in central NC. This truck I looked at was a loaded Sierra Grande. All power, tilt, cruise. It had a Starburst in the door with Canada inset. I passed on it due to price & condition. HS

    Thoughts on how to recover from a slightly cross threaded spark plug threads in head?

    I recently had an issue with #7 on an SBC. As many plugs that I've changed, from TPI Camaro, Vette, Triton Ford, Hemi Dodge, no issues at all with the exception of older Triton blowing plugs out. My ole 76 tho, got me on #7. Made in Mexico Autolite looking just like the previous post. I ran my...

    What have you done to your square lately??

    Just drug one of the farm mules out for some brake service. The backing plate on the 76 says she needs some wheel cylinders.

    WTB '83/84 GMC dual headlight grille

    I just called and spoke with him. I told him to join the site and PM you directly. I saw the grille when he bought it and I told him then that there were folks here looking for that type grille. Maybe you two guys can get together on something. HS

    82 Sierra Grill alternatives

    I have an 82 that I've pieced together as well. Mine is a High Sierra but single headllamp version. I'm with @85K30 as I'd graft in a section and paint it. I used JB Weld and a donor 87 grille for the repair on mine. The grille mesh is a bit different but not many folks will notice unless you're...

    Clutch cover and flywheel damaged out of the box?

    Much can happen on that 10K trip from China to you. Looks better than the next you'll get (probably). I'd run it. HS
