My new project truck: '99 K2500 Suburban

[Dravec]

Just starting on the power steering system, and discovered that my 3/4 Suburban, 4x4, 454, hydroboost, doesn't have a power steering cooler. It has the race track of lines. How hard is it to swap to the cooler? (Tried searching, no luck)

So, not really in any shape to do any real work on the truck today. In lieu of real work, I'm doing this:

Scrap metal?

I don't have headers. These are the exhaust manifolds. I messed up and left them outside and it rained. So I'm cleaning them up, and grinding the carbon out of them.

If you've got time, maybe soak them in molasses/water?

454, could you enlighten us on this (at least myself if I'm alone in my ignorance).

Yeah, I'm also confused by this one....

I vote muriatic acid myself. I vote headers myself.

While I agree, and want that too, that's nearly a grand, and I'm not really up for that right this second

More progress!
