    Does a frame-off restoration (removal of the cab, specifically) require the floor-mounted 4wd selector to be removed?

    Greetings all, I hope this the right section for this thread. I’m removing the ext cab on my ‘93 k3500. I was busy loosening the 4wd selector to ensure that there is nothing in the form of a linkage holding the transfer case to the cab. Can anyone clarify this, as i’m having trouble...

    Street-able NA 454 7.4L build

    I'm wondering what is the right tradeoff between a road-legal (here in Spain, no modifications from stock are allowed to be made) and street-able camshaft and valvetrain set-up. Gen V block came with solid hydraulic lifters, I'm considering swapping these along with the cam, pushrods & springs...

    Questionable epoxy/weld job

    This is an ALLEGEDLY low-mileage 4-bolt main Gen iv 454. I’ve been told it’s been damaged by a fire, I can’t wether this is what caused to block warp & tear.

    Front driveshaft plastic seal (dust seal)

    In the process of unbolting the transmission housing from the engine block I had to move the front driveshaft (Chevy K). Doing this caused the fatigued ring-seal that’s around the front driveshaft to crumble to pieces. I was wondering if anyone here knows where I could find a replacement or a #...

    Pre ‘93 4L80E

    I was handed down a truck with a plethora of electrical gremlins. I’m currently redoing the wiring harness which was damaged in a fire. I’ve read that prior to 95 the 4L80E didn’t have a crank position sensor? I also can’t find one (engine has been pulled by me) is it perhaps integrated into the...

    Novice seeking help (wiring/engine rebuild)

    Fellow GM truck enthusiasts, Some time ago I made a thread dubbed “502 Accel 3500” with a different username. I was handed down a truck that was turned down by various garages/mechanics where I live. The harness was damaged severely due to a fire/excessive heat. I thought the air-intake was a...
