Ive seen some of the "KATZ" magnbetic heaters. The problem with some of those is it puts out 300 to 400 degrees of heat! Wat to much for engine oil. Could it even boil it? I believe the elemnets on what ever you get should stay below 250 degrees F. MAX. I like the idea of two block heaters...

For some reason my Thank you wont post. Thank you for the info. I just got in from crawling up and inside the the truck. The two lines coming out of the IP (Injector Pump) look good and new but I will replace them as you suggetsed. The 1 1/4" long piece of tube coming off of the hard line...

Thanks Scarecrow1! She really does seem to be mechanically sound. I believe I have the high rpm shifting problem narrowed down due to fellow SS members here. I will replace the rubber lines first and see if that fixes it.

I was impressed with mine on a Hard packed icey snowy steep hill and she climbed it in 2 wheel drive! That rear locker is sweet!

Also found this TM Manual in the truck under the seat. Shes pretty dirty on the outside but just fine on the inside! Nice little bonus. Here is a picture of the decontamination bottle I found behind the seat as well.

LOL. Did that right before I logged on. Will post in a minute. This manual is pretty thin compared to some I saw in the vehicles a few SS members asked me to inspect when I picked mine up.

I found them. Driver side Alt: NAPA # 257575, Gates # 7575, Dayco # 15580 Passenger side alt: Napa # 257483, Gates # 7483, Dayco # 15490 Power steering: Napa # 257448, Gates # 7448, Dayco # 15455 :driver:

Does anyone have the part numbers for the fan belts on the M1028?

Tomorrow I will head to NAPA (the only automotive store for 4 hrs) and see if they have some GM locks and ignition assembly. I will also pick up everything I need for the "Doghead" Starter relay mod. Thanks Doghead for this great mod!

The Doghead starter relay modification thread list what relay to use.

Thanks
