    What have you done to your square lately??

    It's been like 6 weeks since I dropped my vent windows off for new gaskets. Should have known 35 bucks was way to cheap.

    That's the precise reason it's a great picking ground for neighboring states though.

    Cali Smog Engine Rebuild

    I put the stock manifolds and everything back on, it was a straight swap, I made it very easy. Then I said/asked nothing at the station, just let em run it lol.

    Cali Smog Engine Rebuild

    I had a 71 K5 with a 307 that failed, I replaced it with a 350 Goodwrench and Crane Fireball cam recomended by their tech line and pssed with no issues. I would worry more about the cam than the bore and stroke.

    I have wifi and a bluetooth speaker in my garage in addition to the stuff I've seen. My home wifi didn't quite work out there so I installed a second router.

    We like pictures, we live vicariously through one another while waiting for our own budgets to refill.

    Skip White distributors are good stuff, for the price of one, I wouldn't monkey around with stock.

    Some of my daily, 2500HD 8.1

    So, the tailight thing was bugging me, and it's warmer, or it was yesterday, so I tore into the truck with a multimeter and did a little DOE... When I unhooked the front harness, the turn signals worked fine, so I pulled the grille and took a peek. Butt connectors, Scotchlocks, splices...

    What have you done to your square lately??

    Filled out a build sheet for an FTI converter, I'm still on the fence about it, it's quite expensive and really doesn't fit my build at all.

    Body swap

    You have to use the mounts that match the frame, as far the rubber bushings.

    Can these bed sides be saved?

    Bondo in the rails will chip again if you're using them. Rage metal filler might not though.

    increasing value of truck?

    I get that from people on Youtube all the time, "what's your time worth". I'm in it for the glory lol, not the money. I'm having fun, this is how I relax, rolling around in the dirt hurting my hands :anitoof:. I don't understand people who factor cost in, if price of time is a concern, then it's...

    Which product do you recommend for chassis

    My crew cab long bed 2500HD took a little over a gallon of the base, a little over a gallon of topcoat, and another gallon of clear.

    increasing value of truck?

    It's a bit of a loaded question, they are many variables. As your daily, a swap will increase it's value to you, because it will drive much more pleasantly. As an investment, no, you probably won't get whatever your truck is worth, plus the cost of your swap on top of it. But the same is...

    What have you done to your square lately??

    Last time I was at the junkyard this dude had found a 3 foot Snap On breaker bar. He was trying to return it to whomever had lost it. I told him looks like it's his lucky day lol.

    Which product do you recommend for chassis

    Rustoleum Heavy Rust Primer followed bu whatever Rustoleum topcoat you like, I use the Semi-Gloss black. Works great, easy touch up, adheres way better than the magic rust paints, and cost 30 bucks a gallon.
