    SM 465 Bellhousing

    Alright guys, I am truly at a loss here as I have no Idea where to look or what to buy, I have an 87 K20 that I have recently swapped from a 350 to a 454 in front of an SM 465/208 combo. The trans and transfer case are factory (including that crappy aluminum bellhousing) and after the...

    tbi to carb throttle cable

    hey guys, trying to make thing simpler here, picked up a 454 for my K20 that has a holley 750 double pumper on it, I am switching from a tbi 350 and am wondering if I can use the same throttle cable from the tbi or not, I am away from the truck currently as I am at school and have a bunch of...

    350 TBI to 454 carb

    Hey all, Blew a rod on my TBI 350 and one of the lifter journals is worn out from a shattered lifter along with the crank having a huge groove for the 1 and 2 rods so I'm scrapping the engine. I found a complete 454 with pws, alternator, water pump, from 750 Holley all the way down to...

    Running Rich, Making me Broke

    Alright, so it flashed code 13 and code 15 to me, I looked them up and 13 is the oxygen sensor, and 15 is the cts. I have replaced my cts though so I'll have to clean the ground on it and see if that helps. The truck bogs when at low rpm and runs like a top at the higher end. This is where the...

    Running Rich, Making me Broke

    Well I guess tomorrow I will clean up that ground on the intake manifold off of the coolant temp sensor and see where that gets me, the ses light came on and then went back off so I'm going to try to read that code as well, will the cpu store a code even if the light is not currently on? The cts...

    Running Rich, Making me Broke

    Does anyone have a part number for the sensor on the left head between cylinders 1 and three? It isn't the same as the one that goes into the intake manifold is it?

    Running Rich, Making me Broke

    Hey all, 87 k20, 350sbc with sm465. Took her in to get inspected and aligned today since I finally got it on the road after waiting 5 months for my title. Shop owner and mechanic say the truck is running very rich which sounds right since I burnt half a tank of gas today. They said it...

    Pws Info

    Hey everyone, looking at a new pws pump for my 87 k20, apparently there are two different versions, one is hydro boost and the other is vacuum boost, I don't know much about pws to be completely honest and was wondering if there is an easy way to distinguish between the two. Thanks everybody.

    Dana 45 diff vent tube

    Alright buddy thanks a lot, I'd really rather have one of those breather kits that's about 4 inches tall and doesn't have a haze going anywhere but everyone wants a stupid amount of money for what it really is, I'm stretching out that hose how it sits at ride height so any good bump and I might...

    Dana 45 diff vent tube

    Hey guys, Just wondering what the front differential vent tube goes up to, my hose is now too short since I lifted it and I was looking around and I can't tell what it goes up to, it looks like it goes up somewhere on the driver side frame rail? Can I use a standard fuel line to replace it...

    Performance question

    Haha will do, if it does turn out that this may be the problem I will post it on here and let you know, the thing idles a little sporadically even after a new IACV and coolant temp sensor. I can't imagine it's a fuel issue as it runs well in the higher rpm range. Most times with fuel issues the...

    Ride Heigt Question

    To the lip of the fender correct? Does anyone know the factory measurement for a K20 with a 350/sm465 combo?

    Performance question

    It has the TBI set up. I think the distributor is supposed to be different than what's in it. I believe they had electronic advance on the TBI series but mine appears to just be mechanical

    Performance question

    Hello all, I have an 87 K20 with the 350 and sm465 combo. I just bought the truck and have replaced many things including the cap, rotor, plugs, and wires, due to it running like $41?. She runs pretty well now but I have noticed that when it gets to a certain rpm in the higher range...

    Timing help

    I know you aren't really looking to be directed elsewhere, but I too was curious about timing. If you get on YouTube and look up adjusting timing for small block Chevy, a guy does a video on a corvette with a 350 that was very useful, there is also one on there by MSD ignition that explains it...

    Running a 4" lift and 37s??

    I'm in the exact same boat as you bud, bought my 87 k20 advertised as a 4" lift but not 100% sure, it's also has been Dana swapped front and rear and I have 16.5" wheels. Bought 37's for it and they will clear the rear ended fine but the front end is kind of tight. I just ordered 2.5" blocks...

    Ride Heigt Question

    Greetings all, Sorry if this seems silly to some or all of you. I am new to this site and I've been looking a lot of places for the answer to my question but haven't had any luck. I'm curious if anyone knows how to measure the current ride height of a truck vs the stock ride height. This...
