Things are coming together nicely. Since my last post I have completed the modifications necessary to reinstall the OEM oil cooler lines. The original lines are clean and in great shape, having only 15,178 original miles. I had to modify the Derale fan shroud so that the OEM hard lines could...

FlowCooler makes one. 1895 1982-1993 Chevy GMC 6.2L Diesel CW water pump – FlowKooler Hi Flow Waterpumps

Yes. Drop in and all lines fit and were in the correct OEM location. The only thing I ran across when installing was the new radiator was approximately 1/8" shorter in height than the OEM radiator. I simply cut a piece of neoprene rubber to sit on top of the mounting tabs which tightened...

Just found the source for the all-aluminum radiator. It came from RadiatorExpress.com, SKU#220902 Radiator 1984 Chevrolet K30 - 6.2 Liter V8 379Cid Radiator All Aluminum Diesel, Standard Thread 34 X 19 | Radiator Express Hope this helps.

True, but I had rather shift the load burden to the alternators so the horses don't have to pull the load. I can't seem to locate my paperwork regarding the source for the radiator. I will post it on here when I find it. It fit perfect by the way, all aluminum.

I believe with A/C and a turbo, and especially in hot climates, you might want to consider replacing the OEM engine-driven fan/clutch with a radiator-mounted electric fan. For my Supercharged P400 / 765R4 / NP241 drivetrain swap, which I am anticipating will need a copious amount of cooling...

Squealing belts are a positive indicator of pulley misalignment, period. The squeal occurs when a belt enters and exits a pulley at a slight angle, so slight that the eye cannot detect the misalignment. If a belt is misaligned with a pulley, it will not matter which brand of belt you buy, they...

Ditto on what Tinstar said - the search feature, once you learn how to master the technique, will yield plenty of information on just about any subject relative to these trucks. But to help-out a new member, I will say that the best behind-the-bumper winch mount, in my opinion, is available...

Before you reinstall the reducer, let me know how far off your speedometer reading is and I will calculate which new driven gear you will need for accurate speedometer reading without the reducer.

Ditto on what Flush said. From what I am reading, your drive gear inside the transfer case could possibly be shot. I know it's a pain to get to and to see it, but you really need to remove the sleeve and inspect that drive gear as recommended in my earlier post. You can't get your head and...

Did you try connecting the cable directly to the transfer case without the adapter? I'm interested to know what your speedometer will do in that configuration. Try it and report back please.

That is the standard oil pan for the P400 engines. Heavy cast aluminum.

Since my last post I've gotten a lot done. Powertrain is bolted in place; aircraft pre-oiler is mounted where the OEM fuel filter was on the firewall; 24vdc relays are mounted and wired back to the dash switches, as well as powered from the 24v buss on the firewall, the pre-oiler pulls 4 amps...

These may help -

Thanks Karl for posting that. I'm going to order a set on Tuesday simply because mine are all crudded-up and I don't want to take the time to de-crud them. Edit: Just now ordered online and was pleasantly surprised to see they are offering a 15% Memorial Day Sale! Glad I didn't wait until...
