    help choosing convertor

    Ok thanks guys. I have a factory trans cooler that came with the trans when I got it. It came out of a square body truck as well but don’t recall the year. I also have another one that’s new and a little larger. My main intent for the truck for now is just a cool driver, after regearing down the...

    help choosing convertor

    Thanks for the help guys I wasn't sure how the truck would land here considering the willys body swap. As of now I'm staying with the 3.73s for budget reasons. Duration on the cam at 50 is 234/238 and operating range is 1500-6500. I ran the numbers in an rpm calculator and it says with this...

    Well no picture updates and progress is slow but the 401 block is at the machine shop and checked out good. He did 30 over and that cleaned everything up nice. He’s putting cam bearings in this week and then the block should be done. I got my ati damper in and am waiting on my billet flex plate...

    Rubber Flooring Question

    I've ordered a few carpets from stock interiors and they all came in acc boxes. I assume the rubber floors are probably the same for what it's worth. Quality has been pretty good

    Yeah the older rigs are just so simple. No sensors and computers and junk to go wrong.

    Where can I find this grille?

    Oh i see. Yeah the hoods would probably be spendy to ship. We have a job going in Pierre South Dakota and I could send them on a truck for free that far but anywhere after that would cost me. Don't know if that helps anyone

    Where can I find this grille?

    I’m still pretty new to the square bodies and only know the 83 k5 my mom had and the crew dually my dad had. Does he he have desirable parts? If so I can try to get them cheap and only need my money back and shipping if it makes sense. Not trying to make money. I just like to see as many old...

    Here's mine. All the original stuff. Needs a new dash pad and seat upholstery hence the covers. One question I have is in the second picture you can see the weatherstrip has a 1-2" gap at the bottom and also is kind of pulling away in the top rear corner. Is this normal? Do these shrink up over...

    Whatcha ridin?

    If I’m really looking for the thrill of big horsepower I pull this old girl out and open her up! :) or if I’ve just had a few to drink and rally around the property with a more minimal chance of injury.

    It's not quite rust free but the rust is very minimal. I thought about converting it to a manual car but when I bought my 401 it came with an amc cased th400. All out of a Jeep wagoneer I just have to get a different output shaft and tailhousing to convert it to a 2wd setup. I had planned to get...

    Thanks I will try to keep this updated as progress occurs but it will more than likely be quite slow

    Yeah that makes sense. Had I known the prices going in I may have just put a sbc in as for the money I'll have in this one amc I could have put a decent engine in it and my truck

    Thanks guys. There's a decent amount of backing in the engine performance department it's just all 2-3 times the cost of something like sbc. The 390 and 401s had forged crank and rods from the factory but for good measure I'm putting in Molnar forged h beam rods. It will probably be 30 over but...
