    Well quick update since I forgot all about this. Ended up trading the truck straight across for my dream vehicle a 83 Bronco with a perfect body 351W C6. I was able to drive the chevy as is to the guys place. Actually the guy ended up selling it and it is right next door to the guy I bought it...

    Found out why I was backfiring, missing, and only would move in 4 low. A wire to one of the injectors were melted fixed it sorta and now it runs decent. Still needs a tune up but going to still rebuild the engine as it is knocking a bit still. was able to use her to push my brother's 91 F150...

    187 heads on 350

    Found a flow rating: 187 heads: 165 intake with 1.84" valve and 140 exh with 1.50" valve 193 heads: 178 intake with 1.94" valve and 146 exh with 1.5" valve. Looks like the 187s flow way less. I can see why my buddies dad put them on this truck thinking higher compression better HP but didn't...

    187 heads on 350

    ya see that is the part I am worried about is the flow being to little. I am also worried that those heads are the reason for it running like it is currently (backfiring when reving it up, bogs down and won't move unless I put the truck in 4 low. I know the valves in the 187s are smaller then...

    187 heads on 350

    Hi everybody I have a 89 K2500 4x4 350 TBI with a TH400 ECLB truck that I am rebuilding and right now trying to make a decision on the engine build. I know vortec or aftermarket heads would be the best but I don't have the money to do the vortec swap. I just looked at the casting number of the...

    Well deal fell through on the half ton so going to go with just about the same plans. Starting to save money for the engine rebuild setting a $2K build. So far my plan for the engine rebuild is: 12-249-9 cam tbi heads with some clean up with my dremel (supposedly the TBI heads have good torque...

    Well decided not to sell her but plans may be changing. If I can I am going to pick up a 89ish Chevy 1500 4x4 reg cab short bed with no engine trans or t case and I will swap my engine trans and tcase in that truck. I will rebuild my engine, lift it with 35s, gun metal gray with spray in liner...

    Put new tires on my ford and now she has a couple issues that I need to fix and I may have to sell this truck (the chevy). Not sure yet have a lot going on in my head with so many issues today.

    that is about the perfect stance as far as how it sticks out. Just enough to look aggressive but not overly crazy.

    what offset do you have on your wheels subourban? Maybe with 37s and 9" of lift total it will look good and not be to high with the Nfab steps I want.

    Outlaw 190 proof's Victoria 89 K2500 build and picture place

    Do the 2500s sit as high as the 1500s? If so I will do a 6" with 35s. We had a 2002 F250 4x4 CCSB stock height and I liked the height with 295 75 16s. I don't know I am back and forth on the size lift and tires.

    Thanks, Tried to get to a compression check but the fuel pump is staying on even after the relay and fuse is pulled. Thinking somebody bypassed it to stay on. Got to get to the bottom of that. Thinking I am going to just pull the engine and 383 stroke it with some upgrades. I disconnected the...

    thanks that truck looks pretty good even though I don't like the NBS. How much offset is your wheels I like the look not to much but just enough. Still trying to get time to do a compression check been a crazy week. Did fire up the truck again to watch the Oil pressure. Sits at 20 psi when...

    Got very little work done on the chevy on my 3 day weekend the ford took a lot of my time with the pain in the rear exhaust system. The crankcase breather was broken on the truck before I picked up a small filter and put it on as a crankcase breather and vacuum capped the line from the TBI...

    Been doing some thinking and just thought maybe I am not getting a rod knock maybe a spark knock or similar. I was quick to assume as that was the reason I blew up my fords old 302. It didn't start knocking till I had the engine revving for quite a while maybe I heated it up to much. Going to...

    No problem. Looks like I will be seeing him soon also. Put a battery in Victoria and started her up and the engine has a rod knocking won't idle at all, throwing flames and backfiring through the intake and exhaust. The motor is gone. On top of that transmission is shot I am pretty sure only...

    Haven't been able to get to a compression check yet since my spare batterys are dead so probably won't be able to until I take the 800cca battery out of my ford and put it in here but can't do that as my 88 is my DD. I however have been able to pull the tailgate panel off. One of these...

    Here are the pics of her with the shell on. I will later scrape the brahma sticker off the back. Also some underhood pics. Once I get my tax return I will be buying tires, alternator, and a battery for my ford and the old battery in the ford will go in here. It is still a good battery I just...

    Got the camper shell on the truck and found out I have a throttle body spacer on the engine already. Also finished installing the door latch. However I didn't notice the newer style rod was longer for the interior handle so I have to redo that. Also it won't open on the outside not sure why yet.

    Picked up a bunch of parts for her today spent more then I should have but oh well. Door latch for $10 at the junkyard worked excellent only one I could find for drivers side. Got to search next paycheck that I can afford to spend on the trucks for the passenger side one as that one doesn't...

    Panch villa has some parts but unfortunetly for me they are the later GMT400 and all the interior is the wrong style. I am going to S&D tomorrow hopefully as they have a good latch for the trucks driver side hopefully it is still their. They are high priced usually though. I usually order...

    No problem. So far they have bored a 460 of my brother's, a 351 for sisters mustang, a 302 for my 88, an engine for our generator, and I probably am missing something. Don't go to the guy in Holbrook he doesn't know what he is doing I could tell just by talkin to him. I hate that I can't find...

One 89ish for $300 RCSB no engine 4x4 other is a 94 K1500 in show low 4x4 $700 on craigslist. I personally run around in a white ford F150 88...
