    What Engine Do I Have

    It runs pretty good as is, and isn't going to get modified. I bought it to be just a driver and for the Power Tour. My wanting big horsepower days are gone, I have seen what it has done to vehicles and my wallet. Ricko, I'm probably over packing, but I want to take an extra fuel pump as that...

    What Engine Do I Have

    I didn't look, but I'm assuming they are the stock heads. I'm trying to figure out what fuel pump to buy for it as a spare for Power Tour. I'm assuming that in 94 it came with an electric pump. It has a manual on it now. I have been out of the Square body game for a long time.

    What Engine Do I Have

    I just changed my search wording on the internet, and found a list from LMC Trucks. They list "FSC" as a 1994 350(5.7L) so I guess I'm all set.

    What Engine Do I Have

    I have a 1984 GMC C1500 that originally a 305. The engine in it now is supposed to be a 350. The only number I can see is on the pad on the passenger side of the engine behind the alternator. That number is V0826FSC I tried looking for the casting number at the rear but there is too much stuff...

    how fast is your power window?

    I have a 84 C1500, mine are slow also. I thought I might be changing motors, but they still seem to work, just real slow.

    Edelbrock Adapter questions

    You're right, it's that flat piece of steel that you need 2 gaskets for. When I initially purchased my carb (I purchased it directly from Edelbrock), I couldn't get it to seal. I called their Tech Line and was told no way would it seal without the plate, and the sales person should have told me...

    Edelbrock Adapter questions

    Obviously you are much smarter than I am. A fuel pump pumps fuel. As long as it's the right one for my application, I use it. If my info helps fine if not, don't worry about it. Been playing with farm equipment, cars and trucks for 50 years, I have done ok so far.

    Edelbrock Adapter questions

    Didn't say it would, and didn't say it was the same, and didn't say it would fit a chevy. I don't spend every waking minute looking at my car's parts. All this with the carb took place at least 5 years ago. I was just trying to help you out in case the problem I had was the same as yours. An...

    Edelbrock Adapter questions

    It's the same as any other mechanical pump. Could even be a GM pump, AMC sourced parts from all manufacturers. It has a GM distributor, Ford starter and a Chrysler transmission.

    Edelbrock Adapter questions

    This was all on my 1973 AMC Javelin with a 360 V8. I believe it's a 3 port but I would have to look. The car runs pretty good now so I just leave it alone. I check the gauge on the regulator every once in awhile to make sure it hasn't wandered. I'm sure it's not the original pump, but I don't...

    Oh and the car has a mechanical fuel pump on it.

    Edelbrock Adapter questions

    I did the adapter plate first. I did the regulator a couple of years later as I will still struggling with idle issues. I actually saw about the FPR in a YouTube video, and checked the carb book and sure enough it was in there about a regulator. I don't remember exactly what my fuel pressure...

    Edelbrock Adapter questions

    I checked the part # and it's Edelbrock Carburetor Adapter # 2732. I had problems getting it to seal to the Edelbrock intake. I called their help line and was told I would never get it to seal without one. This was several years ago. The book that came with my 1406 when I purchased it, also says...

    Edelbrock Adapter questions

    I can't remember the part number off hand but I'll look later on in my carb manual. I know I couldn't get mine to seal to the intake without it and couldn't stop the vacuum leak. Edelbrock also suggests a fuel pressure regulator. I put one on my OT car and it cured some of the stumble.

    edelbrock throttle issue

    On an off topic vehicle, I had a problem with a vacuum leak and the throttle return problem with a new 1406 carb on a Edelbrock intake. After calling Edelbrock Tech Line, they told me that I need the #2732 carb adapter plate. put that on and there was no problem. I put a straight edge on the...

    Which is the correct fuel tank ?

    Tank is finally in and working. It was a pain. As I said before the return lines on the truck are 1/4 inch and the nipples on the new switch are 5/16. I ended up getting the 5/16 to 1/4 adapters from JEGS to make it work. Every switching valve that I could find had 5/16 nipples for the return...

    Fuel Tank Selector Valve Shield

    I have an 84 GMC C1500. I had to replace the tank and switching valve. My cover had 3 bolts the 2 towards the back were in from the bottom and the one towards the front was down from the top. Last night I checked the switching valve as per the factory service manual and it tested good last...

    Which is the correct fuel tank ?

    I spoke to a friend who is retired and was a long time mechanic at a now closed GMC Dealer. To the best of his recolection, it would be one 16 and the auxiliary would be a 20. The truck is original and isn't a lengthened short bed. Everything spring wise looks to be in the original location...

    Which is the correct fuel tank ?

    Thank you everybody for the quick replies. With the 20 gallon tank in it doesn't have much clearance between the tank flange and the rear spring hanger. I'll take a look and see what the fill pipe set up looks like on the 16 gallon tank. The fill hoses on the 20 that was in it does look like...

    Which is the correct fuel tank ?

    That's what I thought, but in looking up the tank in the LMC catalog it has a note that some Longbeds had a 16 gallon tank as standard, but it doesn't say what year. I was totally confused after reading that. I looked on RockAuto and they list a 16 gallon tank but it doesn't specify long or...

    Which is the correct fuel tank ?

    I have to change the fuel tank on the passenger side of my 84 C1500 long bed. I measured the old tank and it was a 20 gallon tank and I got a tank from LMC Trucks. I never measured the drivers side tank because no problems with it. After the instillation problems with the tank, I started...

    Fuel Tank Selector Valve Porting

    I am also having the same problem. Original valve has 1/4" Ports for the top two on the side of the valve with 4 ports. I ordered a replacement valve from LMC trucks and the new one has 5/16" ports instead of 1/4". Lines coming from the tanks on mine are the original 1/4" Also checked the one...
