    Pig Pen's 89 GMC 2wd SAS Auto to SM465

    Walked out to this Friday morning and was pretty sad. Not even mad just glad it didn’t keep burning. The AC control box appears to be where it started. It will be a complete rewire. Probably do a drag car wiring setup and see if I can fabricate a Sheetmetal dash. I wasn’t going to mess with the...

    Prerunner bumper ideas

    My pleasure. Ali used to work at several magazines and builds some killer rides. Simple but very effective on multiple terrain.

    Thank you very much. Yeah mama kicked my tail that trip and she has not let me live it down. I’d rather get my tail kicked and have her there than not though. She’s had a rough bout lately but is all healed up and ready to go some more. This week hope to setup another build page for the red...

    Had a 1/4 of dirt built up on it. I’m slowly chipping away at it. I call around see if someone can hit wash it if not I’ll live with what results I can do at the house.

    Finally finished the wife’s projects and got my father squared away with his stuff. Back to my projects. Went to Jake’s Performance dropped off my torque converter. Did a cut clean re-stall to 2400 and added some balloon plates. Very reasonable. Picked up his stage 2 th400 kit then disassembled...

    The build of "Wh4t3v3rs"

    Boss that was not intended. Please don’t take it that way. I was being silly. I hope everything works really well for you. Keep grinding we all want to see it finished and running straight. Good luck.

    Probably the only person on here complaining about a chance converter. Sad times we live in bro.

    The build of "Wh4t3v3rs"

    Yup will do. I used to be into car audio when Gary Biggs was dominating. That might show my age a bit though. Thanks.

    Yeah will do man. Thanks I used to be into car audio when Gary Bigs was dominating. Might show how old I am though.

    The build of "Wh4t3v3rs"

    Yeah Holley pointed out if you were to use a charger for the 16v system when drained that it would be good practice to isolate and just use the charger for the battery to prevent “dirty power” from potentially damaging components. That would be more to my liking. Voltage regulator with...

    Vanderhoof had an interesting 16 volt setup for his Sick Week mustang. https://www.sickthemagazine.com/news/devin-vanderhoof-switching-to-rowdy-radial-class-for-sick-week-puts-up-stout-times-in-testing Sounds like you have a solid plan for the electrical system an no doubt some of that car...

    need to know value of parts

    Agreed but didn’t want a fellow member to miss on some coin since they are reaching out. I’ve bought 2 that were “ 4 speeds” lol. It will be a good SM465. 32spline output 6 bolt circle and the short throw type. I love mine but most don’t. Cheap and easy but no OD.

    need to know value of parts

    Is it a 4 speed like this or this? Only asking because I’ve seen people list NV4500s as 4speeds. The bell housings are expensive either way. Sm465 4 speeds are Selling at $350 the nv4500 5 speeds are selling for at least $1000. You will have the early style of NV which is more desirable first...

    NV4500 swap question

    Yes. The stack up was too close and that is what it needed. I’ve not seen much info on it either but believe me it is dialed currently. The sm shifts as good as any tremec or performance transmission.

    Picked up a TH475. Have my eye on a Gear Vendors unit but little on the high end for used. If it comes between overpaying for used and getting kicked you know where I’ll probably bite the bullet and pay the money for a new one. It’s an 84 model from the tag. Next will be building a run stand and...

    Appreciate it. Ya I’m pretty pumped myself. I will tune it to the best of my abilities then pay good money to have it locked in. The terminator makes it somewhat user friendly. Matt Hapel @ Sloppy Mechanics has put out tons of content. I’m running his cam “The Best Cam” a terminator X and will...

    Thanks for the heads up. That why I hadn’t installed it yet. I had some .010 shims but not enough. This is by far the best method in my opinion for shimming the pump.

    I just went back and read. I thought I commented on the stuck fill plug. This is what I did for my semi float 14 bolt. Didn’t have to change anything with my hydro boost swap. Works extremely well and you can disco the rear brakes for burnouts or torn brake line if need be...
