I'm new on here so hello to everyone. I read all the postings on the swap
in the archives but still had some questions. I have a 78 Chevy with a 350
and a 700r4. An aftermarket tank was added to the left side but can only
use one side because of a crappy wiring job. The gauge doesn't work either.
I read that the
fuel tanks would have to be modified. Would it be a good
idea to get new tanks and ...

Did you get bigger tires? 9.5 is only the width of the tire. If you went bigger overall diameter of the tire (245/75R16 being 31"OD), that would explain your RPM being lower. Bigger tire, the more distance you travel with one
tire rotation. This effects speed. Example, going from a 30" tire to a 33" tire would give you a 10% bigger tire. Taking that, you add, 10% to the speed and the ...

Have you checked the caster ? Sounds like a death wobble (caster shimmy) to me.Once it starts,it's difficult to stop,and becomes very violent.
Get it on a rack,and check the caster\camber.Caster should be at LEAST 3 degrees,if not more.
Ever seen a shopping cart with a
slightly bent front wheel.It flaps violently side to side when you push it.Same deal.

Hello, I have a 82 Chevy c20 converted from Diesel to Gas.
I need a new dash bezel and cluster (only speedo

What years fit this truck...yes windsheild wiper is on the dash by the light switch.
I would appreciate any inof anyone ...

I have a 82 GMC 1/2 Pickup. I need the rear window dimensions. A drawing with the specs would be great. Does anyone know if that is available.
The reason I need it is this. I bought a cab sleeper/topper that someone modified the front of, meaning it does not match my rear window (too big). I am going to have a
metal shop cut the identical window dimensions out of a piece of aluminum and ...
