Alright I know there are several threads on this but none of them are that thorough and seem to turn into arguments over what parts are better so I'm making this one.
Now, I'll start off by saying I don't know a whole lot about carburetors, but I've got a pretty decent understanding. I have a...
Thank you. I am going to check all that out but I already know from when there wasn't this much slop, that I'm just not happy with the amount of lock to lock turns it takes. I live out in the country so we have lots of windy backroads and with the slow ratio box, I have to turn the wheel...
Exactly. I know the M20 has a little gear noise so that's why I wouldn't be opposed to it. I would prefer a M22 though for sure. Would a M22 bolt straight up to my 350? As far as making the transfer case work I could just do a divorced setup with like a 2 inch driveshaft so I'm not that worried...
That may be true but if I remember correctly, which I am, he said he tried it in panic situations and nothing bad happened because his brain had adjusted to the new steering. You guys are acting like our brains don't learn the capability of our vehicles and adjust our actions accordingly, which...
I'm gonna have to check all those parts but I was just reading a thread on here where a guy put a 454ss steering box in his lifted 4wd Silverado and it's been working fine for about 2 years
You nailed it! I am actually planning to get better aftermarket heads or possibly upgrade some vortec ones since their "the best flowing factory head out there for a GM v8" (David Frieburger), as well as a supercharger. I'd like a traditional top mount twin screw supercharger but if it doesn't...
Anyone know of a good 4-speed to put behind my 350 in my Z71? It needs to mate with my transfer case. I kinda like the idea of the old Muncie M20/22 Rock crushers because they have those strong straight cut gears. I heard that they can handle being in a truck and pulling trailers fine but I...
Ok, clearly you all assumed that I'm only doing a cam. Not true. I simply I said I was looking into cams, not hey I wanna cam my truck so I can sound cool and do nothing else to it. I will admit, the main reason I like the ***** Thumpr cam is because of the idle sound. BUT that's not to say I...
I'm looking into camming my 350 and I don't know if it's a hydraulic roller or flat tappet type cam. I want the comp cams ***** Thumpr. It's a hydraulic roller so if my motor is flat tappet, the conversion kit from comp cams is an extra 150ish bucks. My truck is a 95 Z71 so obviously it's the...
Everybody post your rim pictures for me please! Looking for new wheels. I like chrome or black mainly.
I currently have American Racing Sliders, which to my knowledge were special order rims or something because I cant find them anywhere. I'd prefer to not change them but they are corroding...
Well I'm honestly not sure how much higher the center of gravity is because I've sat my Z71 next to a plain old 1993 2WD W/T and I don't sit but maybe 3 inches higher tops. Forget the quicker ratio for a minute, what can be done to get the ridiculous amount of slop out of the steering? Right now...
I don't much care for the sloppy, slow ratio, unresponsive steering in our beloved GMT400s. Has anyone ever swapped a cars steering box in or heard of it? In theory it would work to just swap the box but I'm no expert on the matter so I thought I'd ask. I was thinking obviously a Corvette...
