    4.10 to 4.56 or 4.88

    1986 K10. 290hp 350 with mild cam and headers. 700r4 trans. 4" lift 35" tires. Currently running Dana 44 front, Corp 14 rear, both 4.10 gears. Gutless wonder constantly hunts between 3rd & 4th on even the slightest inclines. Prolly due to about 2k rpm. Frustratingly anemic and 6-8mpg...

    290hp 350 heads upgrade?

    Thanks for the comments. 700r4, 4.10 gear, 35" tires....on purpose so none of those factors will ever be changed. But the heads will be. What about dart iron eagle or Motown 220 heads? I think due to cost and the switching of parts I should steer clear of vortex so I can reuse the edelbrock...

    On a FB page I was seeing allot of chatter about adding a separate relay for each window switch, thereby increasing the overall function of the I does and it operates very fast and smooth like a modern day vehicle......this particular chat was about a suburban but..... Anyone know anything...

    Hooker Super Comp Headers

    Guys.....don't over analyze the pics or you'll jump to some wrong conclusions! Nothing is being jacked up so I'm not sure what that was all about....and it's possible the drive shaft is just hanging there cause I've got it apart to replace the front U joint while I'm at it....you think? I'm...

    Hooker Super Comp Headers

    EPIC FAIL! Removed plugs, wires, bumper stop bracket, support rod from starter to transfer case, dipstick tube, starter and front drive shaft. Also cut back exhaust pipe to make room...fit like a glove...ON A F**KING FOOT! All that was in the way was an engine and a frame and whether I came...

    Inner fender replacement?

    Both inner fenders rusting out at the triage piece with three bolts...whatever the hell they thought that was good for I'll never know! Anyway do I have to remove the whole outer fender too or can I just replace the inner?

    Hooker Super Comp Headers

    Noob question. I bought a set from a guy who says they were bought for a 350. I see Hooker has many different models. Other than the super comp badge I see no markings. How do I know what model they really are? How do I tell what shape copper gaskets I need? How do I know what...

    Mystery vibration

    Well I had it in the shop. Here's what I know. My front tires were a bit out of balance. And my ball joints on the drivers side are bad and not as bad but still not good on the passenger side. I had they jack it up so I could verify...drivers side does move back and forth from top to bottom...

    Replacing fuel tank

    The job is ridiculously easy. If it's got gas in it, use a floor jack and jack stands to help lower it. Here's the real pain in the ass....reconnecting the 3 fuel lines back to the sending unit....wow....I culdnt do it no matter how hard I tried....pissed me off and frustrated me like no...

    Th350...th400...700r4

    290hp 350, 4" lift with 35s and 4.10 gears. Which tranny is best to use? Just smoked my 4mnth old tranny due to poor installation. Passenger side bell housing bolts vibrated out or loose or broke off so tranny was separated by 1/8" and it tore itself and converter up. Had a 700r4 and...

    Secondaries no help

    Well keep in mind that I don't know jack. However I think I notice the trucks running cooler and is idling more smoothly.... Furthermore, I ran the part number and the former module was an AC Delco part...therefore not the new Accel distributor I had purchased for the new engine. Nice...

    Secondaries no help

    I think I've solved it. I replaced the distributor control module and test drove for an hour with no issues. I will report back if that changes.
