    54ish here. My first truck was a '73 C10, back in high school, and they have "been following me home ever since".

    Turbo 35 C

    A picture is worth 1000 words. Lots of knowledge on this site, just have to give them all the info. It doesn't sound like a TH350.

    L98 c4 corvette engine into 1976 k20

    I had one in an '84 K20, that was my daily driver for about 10 years. It was great. Plenty of power and decent mileage. Mine was the aluminum head version. I think some of them had the iron heads. I'm not sure about them. I still have that motor in the shop, on the stand. I am going to freshen...

    What do I need for a fuel pump replacement?

    I've never replaced a push rod or mounting plate. Factory stuff is usually better than aftermarket stuff. It "road tested". I usually use the threaded hole in front of the block to hold the pushrod up while installing the new pump, just dont forget to take out the long bolt and replace it with a...

    Tire size question

    Thank you! It's my "other" Square. But I am sure starting to like it. Its easier to get in and out of, and it has a Big Block in it!

    No idle

    Adjusting the valves is pretty critical. If they are too tight it will make it hard to run, and might be bending pushrods. It doesnt take much. You should be able to idle it up until it stays running. Turn the mixture screws out about 1-2 turns, put a timing light on it and fire it up.

    What rims are these?

    They are cool! I hope you get them fixed.

    What rims are these?

    I've never seen such a thing!! But I haven't seen everything... (obviously) Once again you may want to go with something different and more common... kinda like the intake thing.

    10 inch lift and 37 inch tires on 88 suburban

    You will need some way to get in & out of there... maybe a little step ladder of some sort. Just a thought...

    HELP!!!!

    Find a drag racer or boat racer and sell them that intake and get you a stocker or single plane of some sort and make sure it fits correctly and go from there on tuning your new motor for what it is, a truck motor, not a drag race motor. You will be much happier with the drivability vs. the top...

    HELP!!!!

    Intake manifold leaking where it mates with the head. If the heads were milled that could mean that you need to mill the intake to fit. You might want to get a single plane intake before you do all that work on that drag race piece. Something more for low end torque. Just a thought.

    HELP!!!!

    What do you mean when you say you cant get a timing light on it? Also what do you mean that y0ou cant get it to run under 3000 rpm? It wont idle? How worn is the 454? Fresh or high miles?

    Tire size question

    Probably will require a little clearance on the lower rear corners. You can cut the bottom of the fender behind the lip and fold it back and overlap it and you can hardly tell that its modified.

    Flat black instead of chrome

    The black out grille and bumper looks good to me . I dont know how it would work on the trim and mirrors.

    Extremely loose steering

    The steering arm on the steering gear box was loose on the GMC when I got it. I couldnt see it until I took the tire off and moved the steering wheel while I could see. I tightened it up with an impact and its all good now.

    I have a feeling this is going to get expensive.

    What is the problem you are trying to fix? What is your set up? From the picture, there is no problem there, although they do look expensive.

    Ignition switch rod won't stay in on '78 K10

    Welcome fellow Mopar man. Sounds like you had to spend a fortune on electrical stuff for that square body. Something must have shorted out all that stuff. I have one that I need to finish working on with the push button set up disaster like you described, and the rod is all bent up. I have had...

    Any squarebody van guys? Got a odd question.

    Maybe weld a wider plate on the face of the pedal so you can move your foot over more. Put a little grip tape on it and call it good.
