    Headers and stock exhaust?

    Do shorty headers require replacing the rest of the exhaust, or can I keep a 2-->1 stock exhaust and use headers. Its for a specific situation, so Im not asking opinion about the setup, just if it will all fit together correctly. '83 C30

    Remove or trash?

    Replacing my whole exhaust, and when i was removing the Y pipe a bolt broke in half. Its the bolt on the drivers side closest to the engine. Should I try to get that thing out or just replace the manifold?

    Adding mufflers - need to adjust timing and dwell?

    I just got a stainless muffler on RockAuto for $55. I'm not after the redneck sound though-I prefer not to hear my exhaust.

    Where to find exhaust hangers?

    We don't have any of that nonsense fortunately. When I register the truck for the first time, I don't even have to take it to the DMV. We have no exhaust shops, but we do have that! ;-)

    Where to find exhaust hangers?

    I don't have headers, but can I assume then that it is not an important part in a warm climate?

    Where to find exhaust hangers?

    Good idea. I'll try that. I live in New Mexico. It rarely gets below freezing. Should I even care if this thing works?

    Where to find exhaust hangers?

    Thanks guys. Those stupid things are expensive! Anybody have a working used one for sale? I assume that if I cant move mine by hand, it's not working?

    Where to find exhaust hangers?

    It's a good thought, but they would be way too close to the frame. I guess I could make it work with minimal fab work if I can't find the correct ones.

    Where to find exhaust hangers?

    I cant seem to find these anywhere. I'd settle for just the bottom missing piece if anyone has some for sale.

    Clanking sounds from rear wheel

    Do you have hubcaps? I had the same sounds once and it was a rock in my hubcap. Would go away as soon as the wheel was spinning fast enough for centrifugal force to hold it in place.

    Vavle cover bolt size?

    Can anyone help with out with the valve cover bolt size on an '83 5.7L? I got some load spreaders in the mail and they didn't come with bolts (really??) so it will get my truck on the road a day sooner if I can find out the size. Thanks in advance.

    Nooob with Cab & Chassis questions

    Treated wood with a good penetrating oil like Penofin should hold up well enough. Out here the only issue is sun damage and it will be under cover most of the time. It hasn't rained since October. It is definitely handy to be able to screw into it when needed-I have done that many times on my...
