    Help!!! With getting main bearing to roll in

    I rolled out my rear main bearing but can't seem to get the new one in. It hits the block. There .010 bearings like the crank was stamped.

    Passenger side duct source.

    Has anyone found a source for the 12" piece of 3 1/4" diameter duct? I have seen it in the repop parts companies stuff and found some generic ones on eBay but it's about $30 from places like LMC and on eBay it's about $50. This seems pretty excessive for a literal 12" piece of ducting. I know...

    Which way do the valve cover hold downs go?

    I am replacing the old hard cork gaskets that have been leaking years. I have done the driver side , which was the hard side due to the AC and brackets. But I didn't pay attention and I believe that some may have been on wrong anyway. I have the chrome, probably Mr Gasket brand spreader bars and...

    Can't see secondary throttle plates open.

    With the engine off and I wedge the back top plate that's vacuume controlled open so I can see what's happening, my secondary butterflies don't open when I push the throttle all the way open.

    What is this exhaust part?

    I know where it goes, it's off my truck. It goes on the manifold between the down pipe and the manifold. Previous owner welded it open. I'm going to cut the deflector out just to get it out of there all together. But in a factory functioning truck what is it's purpose...I think I maybe have...

    Cold Air Intake

    I finially got around to installing the factory setup. I got a factory air cleaner from a buddy who parts out trucks. I then got a black dryer hose off Amazon. Put the bracket back on the firewall I took of 15 years ago to run my trans cooler lines through the hole. I had it sitting on the wheel...

    Vice Grip Garage starts C20 build

    I love this guy. Found him like 6 months ago and has gone to one of my top favorite channels now. He takes a few times watching him or at least a whole episode to catch into his humor, but I like his stuff. Huge jokester and also knows what he is doing. Building this C20 for the "power tour" as...

    Th350 MPG question

    I just learned last week or so that there was two versions of this trans. A lock up model and non lockup. I did some looking and found out that I don't have the lock up model in my truck but I should. Which explains the plug that has always hung beside the trans , not plugged in. Truck runs fine...

    Source for speedometer cable adapter

    Mine fell apart and I have found a few places that can custom make one for you, but where have others got this part before? How model specific are they. I imagine you need to have the same either trans or transfer case? This thing screwed into my T case and then the speedometer cable into that...

    Who has installed one on their transmission? I specifically asked about the 350 since that's what I have but if you have on on your 400 or 700r4 let me know too. Mainly curious as to if you noticed a difference and what anyone thinks about the claim of adding life to your transmission. Which I...
