    looking for a good radiator

    Great info on the Aluminum Radiators. I’ve never heard this before. I agree that changing coolant and keeping your eyes open that they’re fine to run. Someday when I win lotto and drop a all aluminum block 572 in there I’ll worry more lol.

    Desperately need advice on rear ends.

    I just installed a Lockrite lunchbox style drop In locker in my 1990. I had 28splines in my axle. I counted vrs websites so it does matter 28 or 30 spline. Thru all the research and advice I got here I can say that unless you have to unbolt the ring gear from the carrier; everything is...

    Low oil pressure at idle?

    I’ve got about 15-20 psi at idle. Brand new motor. Was worries about oil pump screen or kink on oil tube during assembly. Runs fine good pressure on gas so I know guage works. Following

    Positraction vrs Locking Diff?

    I wound up going with a Powertrax LockRight. It was within my tool/ skill abilities. Besides directions super vauge and inaccurate; with the help of tech support (directions say you reuse your pinion shaft, you don’t, use new one in kit) it went smooth. Ratchets around turns. But when your on...

    Positraction vrs Locking Diff?

    I don’t have a cam. It’s only got headers and air cleaner. I do have a hyper tech chip to go in…. Just waiting on gas prices to get a little better first. Great advice so far. Should have mentioned I have 275/60/15’s as well.

    90 Grey button no Max button Climate Control bad?

    Not sure if one has to do with the other but the red wire in left of the pic with the black connector is what must supply the radio with power. I only know this because I disconnected it to see what it powered. Judging by its gauge compared to the others, it is a main power source. Sucks about...
