    Starter problems

    So my headers sit right next to my starter and my coil gets hot and doesn't like to start. I went to replace the starter yesterday and when I got it all back in everything worked fine except the starter. No clicking or anything. Took the starter out and bench tested it and worked fine. 1974...

    350 not getting enough fuel

    So I bought a engine out of a 89, throttle body, and I put my heads and intake, off of a 74, carberated on it. I had to put in a electric inline fuel pump. It runs awesome up until my secondaries open up then it falls on its face. If I keep it wide open it will start lurching. Thanks for advice...

    My truck is dieseling

    So after my truck gets warm and I drive it a while, I shut it off and it tries to continue running. I know it has to do with the timing but not sure if I need to advance or retard the timing.

    Has anyone ran 4" pipe one a 350?

    Right now I'm running a 2.5" with a thrush turbo style muffler. One of my friends has a 4" he said he'd give me, but it wasn't on a old truck. I know it won't have as much back pressure but how much will that affect my power?

    Longer shocks on the rear of my 2wd

    I had a friend give me some shocks for the rest of my truck. They are quite a bit longer then the stock ones I have right now. What will the result be if I put the longer ones on?

    1 ton coil springs on a 3/4 ton pickup

    Has anyone ever put 1 ton coil springs in place of their 3/4 ton springs? I've heard that it levels the truck out and that's what I want to do. Any information is helpful.
