    Carb LS with factory ECU

    I typically keep my Youtube and forum persona's separate, but it seems not a lot of people know this is a thing. 100% stock PCM, VATs in tact, cheap Amazon harness, carb intake, carb, runs...

    Name these colors!

    SPID is long gone on my the body donor for my K20, but this body needs some minor repairs, a fender and a tailgate. I'd like to maintain the look and preserve it, so I'm curious what the colors are. I thought this was yellow and white from pics, but it's some kind of tan. I believe these...

    PSI 8.8L big block

    I figure there will be some interest here, since this is slated for my C10. C10 is currently a 3600 rpm converter, 3.73 gear, turbo LS with a .585 cam at 230 degrees duration, running on a Holley Terminator X. I'm no expert, and learning as I go as well, but, I've purchased a PSI 8.8L "R" block...

    Ground to gas tank?

    Is that a thing? My 91 cluster in my 79, fuel gauge reads past full, 3 o'clock, at all times. Cleaned ground, ran it straight to the battery, no changes either way. This is a new 87 sender in a new 87 tank. Idk where else to look without dropping the tank back down.

    Car Cover

    I'd like to get one on Daryl before I jam it in the barn for the winter. Does anyone have one they like? That fits a shortbed? My last one my nephew got me and it didn't cover the whole truck, it's totally tattered now lol.

    Light bucket assembly

    I having a ridiculously difficult time with this. I think I have the wrong bezels or something, because if this light bucket is assembled correctly,then my bezel doesn't line up with the holes at all.

    Drum Brake help

    I'm not really nearly as familiar with drum brakes as I should be. Throughout the years I've tended to just pull it all off and disc swap everything. That was my intention with the C10 as well, but I have no brakes at all now in the rear, and I think that's something I can rectify for like 100...

    Cab floor drains

    79 C10. Under the seat are two holes, that had plugs in them once upon a time. Does anyone know where to find these? I must be using the wrong search terms because I'm getting nowhere.

    C10 power steering lines

    So how many types are there? My truck is a 79, I bought a new line for a 79, and it threaded into the box, but the center hardline portion is very loose, and it leaks like a sieve. The only conclusion I can come too is I must have the wrong line, but I thought the newer stuff was metric? So...

    Wiring tools

    I'm about to embark on a scratch wiring job on my C10 in the next 6 weeks here or so. What tools do you guy's find necessary for good, solid wiring? I have a set of auto strippers, but I don't have any fancy crimpers or anything. Also, I need a source for good spade connectors and whatnot...

    Radiator support mount bolts

    Coming into the home stretch, starting assembly and putting the front clip on for hopefully the last time soon. Have Prothane Urethane mount bushings en route, but my bolts are long gone. Does anyone know the size of the bolt and nut needed?

    Easiest place to check for power in cab?

    I'm actually attempting to wire my truck correctly this year, and I've hit a bit of a snag. Trying to start simple, because I'm simple lol. So power applied to the upper left wire in this pic, should result in 12v out on the missing wire in the pic correct? It's my understanding that the upper...

    Oil Pressure sending unit

    Can they be mismatched? I have a 90 cluster and a 79 sending unit for a gauge. It's the correct sending unit for a gauge, but not what shows on Rockauto for a 1990 R1500 Suburban. I have part number PS 154. Rockauto says a 1990 takes part number PS 262.

    What tools to remove cluster?

    So, I need some hand holding here. I'm at work, I'm a little over an hour from home, and the Upull here has a 90 Suburban with the electronic dash I need for my LS swap. I've just been driving around with no dash because I don't want to pay 150 for one lol. But for 25 bucks, I'll take it...

    How I got a plasma cutter

    So we were in a accident on the freeway over the weekend. 60 mph another car lost control, clipped my CCLB 8.1 truck, tore up the bumper and the bed. I was pretty bummed, I really like that truck, but I took it as an opportunity to build a new bumper. The rear truck bumper should be pretty...

    1982 Suzuki GS1100G "Preppercycle"

    This is going to be the build document on my 1982 GS1100G. I'm not really a bike guy, I've had a few when I was a teenager, but I was just a rider of them then, so it's unfamiliar territory for me. What really got my wheels turning on this was Daryl's CB750 on The Walking Dead lol. It just...

    Waste oil as trailer deck stain

    I was looking into stain for my trailer, I replaced the deck last fall, and came across people who claim waste oil is the best thing ever, blah de blah. So I gave it a whirl, used a cheap bug sprayer, about a gallon of diesel, and about a gallon of old oil. Dried to the touch in a day, looks...

    Arduino powered fuel injector tester.

    I'm working on an Arduino powered fuel injector flow tester. I started out with a simple wave generator and a timer, but the relay I was using couldn't operate quickly enough, then I burned up the wave generator lol. It seems quite a few people have started on different testers, and either...

    73-80 brackets different from 81-87?

    Basically, as title states, are they different? Because I went and bought a bench and the brackets don't wrap down at the front, they just hang out in the air and the rear bolts don't line up either. And if they are different, can I just go get 73-80 ones and bolt them to the newer bench?

    Some of my daily, 2500HD 8.1

    This is my 3 or 4 day a week driver, Clifford. Clifford is a 2002 CCLB with an 8.1/Allison/4.10 gears. I knew it had been repainted by the fact that it had the wrong front clip on it, I didn't know they had stuffed the cab corners full of cardboard and bondo until it started bubbling. They had...

    Bolt sizes

    Now that I'm closing in on final assembly, I'm of course missing some bolts. If anyone can help me out or direct me to the sizes of the following, Hood to hinge bolts. Seat to floor Seat belt to floor Stepside fender to box ( I think this is 5/8 - 16, but my threads may need chasing.)...

    Got my drums unstuck, now what??

    My shoes had seized to the drum from sitting, I got them unstuck, but now what? I'm not ready to rebuild them or disc swap it, but I need to be able to move it around. So if I just put them back on, how do I stop them from seizing again? Or should I just take the shoes out? Sent from my...
