    Vortec Heads, need help

    To be honest, I'm not out to make a beast of a motor. I'm unsure what's best because I stuck on what to do about whether to switch to carb or stay TBI. After researching and looking around, I believe my best bet will be to go with a new set of heads.

    Steering Shaft Replacement

    I believe I have found the answer to my question, but y'all double check me if possible. The 80-94 has the clamp that bolts to the gear box on the side of the u-joint. 95-00 has the clamp in-line with the u-joint. Does this sound correct?

    That's correct, yes. When I look on the web, most of all places recommend buying new twist locks and discharging the old ones.

    Biggest Tire on Crank-to-Level

    That looks really nice! Well almost, everything except that Alabama tag on the front, lol, just kidding. Did you like them while you had them? If you didn't go bigger, would you have kept them? How much did you sell them for?

    Biggest Tire on Crank-to-Level

    The more I think about it, the more I want to go to a 285. I was given a free to 285. It's got less than half life on it, so it would make a good spare. Plus it's about $30 cheaper a tire.
