    Gas to Diesel swap, question on fueling

    Red3833's post with the diagrams and explanation of using the sniper output is kind of the swap I was thinking about doing. I appreciate the feedback on the inline. My biggest concern, especially since I'm going to be dealing with a diesel, is having the inline pump not have enough suction...

    Gas to Diesel swap, question on fueling

    Not to split hairs... but TECHNICALLY it's an International Harvester part connected to a ZF part connected to a Borg Warner part. :D Although I'm going to replace the borq warner part with a New Process part. Plus, no worse than people putting a Dodge part (6BT) in a square body. Actually, I...

    Towing a diesel 2500 Burb on a 17’ flatbed trailer

    18' trailer behind my Superduty. 89 Suburban 2wd.You'll be good. Take some extra ratchet straps to hold the ramps up in case the pin holes don't line up.

    Gas to Diesel swap, question on fueling

    I'm reaching to the forum for recommendations/feedback/thoughts on fueling systems. I've been on the different square body forums looking up the function of the dual tank and the Pollack valve. Seems pretty straight forward. I don't like that it relies on the suction from the engine's mechanical...

    Brakes still dont work.

    Did you replace the booster? If so, did you adjust the set screw on the booster shaft? if it's not set correctly it won't engage the MC at the right time. I've made this mistake a few times.

    C20 to c10

    The ENTIRE C20 cross member is about 12 bolts and it drops right out as an assembly.

    8' bed question

    This confirms what I was thinking earlier. I couldn't, for the life of me, figure out why the trailering special cab would have the camper special bed. Someone in the truck's history swapped the bed. Great for me since I'm planning on putting the "77" bed on the 81.

    8' bed question

    Still confused why my Trailering Special cab has a Camper Special bed on it though. Only assume it was swapped. Somehow I managed a 77 with the fuel doors and the camper tie downs.

    8' bed question

    You guys are right. I didn't look close enough at the two beds. Turns out the PO on my 81 installed some diamond plate thing at the front of the bed and it's removed about 2" from the length. They're both 8' beds although the floor measures 99". Diamond plate non-sense in question: When I...

    8' bed question

    I'm going to ask a stupid question about the bed length. In my defense I've been trying to search information but I don't think I have the correct search terms. I have a 1981 C20 3+3 with the 8' bed. It's in a sorry state and I'm thinking about replacing it. I also have a bed off a 1977 K20...

    Hello from San Diego

    Still working my way through the site, but if there's a build section I'll start a thread. Not great at remember photos and/or to upload them but I'll do my best.

    Hello from San Diego

    Hi all, Been lurking on the forum for a short while now. Huge wealth of knowledge here. Finally decided I should sign up. I'm playing Frankenstein trying to create a truck I will enjoy. Been accidentally gathering parts for about 3 years now. Haphazardly, never really intended to do this...
