What have you done to your square lately??

[Old Guy Bill]

GM used different heater hose sizes (typically 5/8" in and 3/4" out) primarily
to optimize coolant flow and heat transfer through the heater core, ensuring maximum warmth by reducing flow restriction on the return side, preventing backpressure, and allowing efficient convection, especially important for effective cabin heating in colder weather. The larger hose helps the coolant exit the core more easily, preventing bottlenecks and maintaining good circulation for consistent heat.

I didn’t do it myself but after months of waiting my bikini top is finished!

Thanks Chad. In the 25 years I've had her, we haven't been down the track. Back roads outside of town...different story.

Well, how does it feel?

i installed an msd cap and rotor, new plugs and wires, edelbrock intake and carb.
got it fired up today for the first time in about a year.

My secret reason for THIS was/is, my step side. Call it a wire labeler, a gauge labeler, a distributor plug wire labeler, a gauge bezel maker. It might even be a truck labeler (emblem).

To keep the secret aloft, I have a few hundred projects that, hope against hope, might both divert attention away from the big, new and strange box in the shop, and solve a few problems, or save work.

For example, my brother wants me to copper plate a buffalo skull, but I don't have a buffalo, so I'll have to make something. For convenience, a comparatively small one.

Or there are the ruler stops, jig knobs, saw throat plates, angle gauge set up plates, and so on.

The simple of it is, I bought a Bambu P2S 3-D printer with the AMS unit, which allows color printing, and various filaments for prototypes and functional items (e.g., my own C-15 / GMC emblems).

I’m still waiting. The other machinist still hasn’t shown up since the floods. Nothing to do but wait- it affords me more money saved.

If enough time goes by, the money saved will just increase- and if the block STILL isn’t done, I’ll pitch it and buy a new summit block.

 

[Ontheboulder]

got my 87 V2500 in the shop trying to button up some loose ends, currently chasing down a no brake light issue again on this thing. got the new ashtray springs installed so the door isn't just hanging open just waiting on winter to get into gear up hear or we will be in sad shape for fires next season

Been a minute since I’d done anything to mine. Life’s been hectic, but found a little time and peace cleaning the dust and cob webs off. Got the new wire ran for the fuel level gauge, new fuel pick up strainer, new o ring and clamp ring on and sending unit back in the tank. Thought I had fuel line to get tank back in but apparently it got used on the tractor when I blew a line.

Still trying to acquire a working 700r4 without paying new rebuilt prices…. Every time I find a good deal on one I either miss out on it or it gets sold out from under me…. I really want to have one before my 40th birthday in February and have this truck moving under its own power.

What day in February is your BD @84_c10_GMC
