    What have you done to your square lately??

    4" speedo and tach while smaller gauges are 2- 1/16. It was not easy to do but I took my time fitting everything. They do not fit the holes without enlarging. The hardest was cutting the new expensive gauge bezel in the back. I used several methods to shave off the back to sit flush. I even...

    What have you done to your square lately??

    Indeed they are! I modified the stock pod and used metal instead of the plastic piece to hold the gauges after enlarging the holes. The new gauge bezel I am going to use was modified in back to sit flush like a stock unit. The Speedhut gauges have a lower profile in the back which is nice and...

    I bought a full set of Bilstein shocks and got the front pair installed. The rear shocks will be installed tomorrow. The ones I took off were shot and IIRC, those came from Autozone several years back. Pics will be added later. The CSI water neck got a new set of O rings too.

    What have you done to your square lately??

    I will have to get some pics later. It's dark now. The Flowmasters sound good! Still need tidy up a bit and install new gauge bezel and dash pad. The new throttle assembly from Hotrod Innovations and Lokar cable rocks!

    What have you done to your square lately??

    I just finished up on the many upgrades and I finally started it up the other day. Turned key to ignition, checked for fuel leaks and get fuel pressure instantly. Cranked on first try. No pumping the gas pedal and you would think its fuel injected. (I never experienced a carbed motor like this...

    Exhaust replacement- anyone do it without welding?

    I made 2 cuts with my cold saw and re-welded the piece shaped like pic. Of course, it was rounded corners.

    Exhaust replacement- anyone do it without welding?

    I used Doug's ceramic coated Tri-Y. In reviews, it says headman headers fit but another guy did what I did and shortened crossmember piece.

    Exhaust replacement- anyone do it without welding?

    Which headers are you using? I installed the 2 1/2" Flowmaster kit on my 86. Fit was good but depending on which headers. I had to cut & shorten, re-weld the pipe in the middle that goes over the crossmember on DS.

    Th350 to 700r4

    This looks nice especially routing exhausts and looks like it uses lower frame rail. https://www.speedwaymotors.com/G-Force-RCC10-3-Transmission-Crossmember-1973-1987-Chevy-C10,360490roducts%20II%20(Feb28_2020)

    Th350 to 700r4

    I think I had to redrill 2 of the 4 if I recall. I am unaware of any aftermarket crossmembers. On my 1986 I did not have any issues drilling. It's possible I only used 3 bolts? I can go look at it tomorrow.

    Can you run a 700r4 WITHOUT electrical connection?

    700r4 quick, stacked shifting

    The governor changes shift points. Is the shifting you describe at normal driving or WOT! The vacuum modulator controls part-throttle I believe. Maybe someone with more knowledge on it will chime in. https://www.summitracing.com/parts/TCI-326500 https://www.summitracing.com/parts/BMM-20248

    Question about dash speaker hookup

    It's a capacitor and I have no idea why someone would use that.

    Fan Clutch

    These may be an option. Several lengths but only 1.5 or larger have dual bolt. https://allstarperformance.com/fan-spacer-kit-2-00-all30186/

    What year front clip do you like best?

    I probably would have not changed if mine had Silverado front but have all the parts now for swap to 89-91 burb/blazer front grill. The single headlight Scottsdale grill was not doing it for me.

    What have you done to your square lately??

    I believe it was around 1k but modifying those panels took me a long time. Cutting into that new $$ repro gauge panel was scary plus I used a hand file on it lastly.

    What have you done to your square lately??

    Getting ready to get these Speed Hut gauges installed soon. I modified a reproduction gauge bezel by cutting/grinding down the plastic pods in the back so they would flush up to the backside of bezel. Mounted the gauges in an earlier metal style back piece after enlarging the holes. Been saving...
