    Which motor mounts work for my truck?

    Looking for a good set of motor mounts (rubber) inserts for my 383 stroker to 85 Chevy k10. I’d like to find ac delco but it shows up not for my truck on summit. Anyone know part numbers or good brands that will work? I also need the bracket that goes on engine also. Thanks.

    Hole in sm465 casing?

    On the top of my SM465 case it has a small pin hole. I’m assuming that’s just wore over time. It’s where the stud on top fork cover goes in. Looking for opinions on if it will leak. Couldn’t tell if it leaked before because entire thing was covered in oil.

    Need to find bump stops

    I should have put some more details. Thanks for pointing that out. It would be daily driving. No off-roading. 3” lift. And I’m just talking about the hard rubber bump stops and not the actual shock looking bump stops.

    Need to find bump stops

    I’m looking at putting new bump stops on front and rear of 85 Chevy k10, but mine doesn’t have any on it now. So, question is Wjat is a good size or recommendation of brand/style to get for front and rear? I see different types and just curious if anything special to pay attention to. Thanks

    3/16” brake line to rear?

    My 85 Chevy k10 originally had 1/4” brake line from proportion valve to rear with drum brakes. Now I have disc brakes and wondering if I could run 3/16” brake line to the rear. Reason being is proportion valve is only set up for 3/8x24 for 3/16 and I would need an adapter to go to 1/4” but if I...

    No. Mine is currently not a tilt. Is that an issue that I shouldn’t get a tilt?
