    pressure sending wire

    Will be doing a 350 to 454 swap soon I hope. Any way I currently have a 95 350 TBI engine and I think I have the wires figured out but I have not started the work yet. Will the oil pressure sending wire reach? If not is there a available extension wire or do I just solder in a length of wire? If...

    454 without AC belt diagram

    It was not easy to find but I found the original factory Bypass bracket. It is part number 14103105. Then you use pulley 14103118. Under the bracket you are supposed to use Brace part number 10085785 but i could not find one. So I did some test fitting and I was able to use the factory AC...

    454 without AC belt diagram

    Without purchasing them I do not know. Those are listed mainly for vans. The vans of that era used different compressor I think.

    454 without AC belt diagram

    Wow! There is not info about how to eliminate the AC pulley on the net for a 454. People say use the 5.7 bypass pulley then they realise in a later post it would only bolt on one side. Then nothing the posts ends without resolution. I know it may not be as common as a 350 but by no means is...

    454 without AC belt diagram

    I see there are different belt tensionners , idlers , and belts for a 93 454 depending on if it has AC or not. I want to eliminate the AC on my engine I will be putting in my truck. Since there is not a AC bypass pulley available can I just change the things listed above ? Can anyone...

    350 to 454 swap questions.

    I have the 454 now. It is from a 93. So it should have the 93 injectors which run on lower pressure same as the 350 from 93. Since my truck is a 95 with a 350 fuel pump will this still work if I find a stock 454 GM chip for my computer? I know it would not work with the 95 injectors and a...

    350 to 454 swap questions.

    I think I already have the Larger radiator. Maybe that is what comes with a cab chassis truck.

    350 to 454 swap questions.

    I doubt it will ever happen but want to know more about it. My 95 cab and chassis crew cab pulls my loaded trailer at low speed fine. But struggles to maintain 55 on nearly flat ground with little wind. It is a 5.7 TBI with a nv4500. I think it has 4.10 gears. I know you guys say my truck...

    Lower ball joint rivets

    Got it done by someone else. I watched and can say without the air hammer he had and hefty drill I would have taken all day with my tools. He was still wishing he could have torched them out but he was out of gas.

    What are your biggest pet peeves when it comes to other motorists?

    While I am driving Semi the vehicle I am passing speeds up just enough so I can not pass. Leaving me stuck in the fast lane long enough for traffic to pile up behind me. Makes me look like the ass as the cars pass afterwards flipping me off for holding up the fast lane. Shortly after...

    TreadWright Road Trip Report

    I purchased 6 of their Puma AT tires. It was the only kind they had in a 225 75. I have not gotten them installed yet since I need alignment. So lets see how it goes. It was less then half the price of new tires with the shipping. Also I did get $78 dollars refunded to my account without a...

    TreadWright Road Trip Report

    How about your reaction to the current fuel prices?

    Canadian companies backing the Keystone XL actually expect it to supply more lucrative Gulf Coast export markets as well as raise Midwest oil prices by reducing “oversupply” in that region. So they expect gas prices to go up.

    Lower ball joint rivets

    I have not got around to it yet. I have been told on some of the 95 3500 the lower ball joint rivets are fin to get out even after knocking the head off. How do you guys do it? Also once you get the rivets out does the ball joint come out of the end of the arm easily? Looks like it might...
