    NP241 wide bearing case id?

    Im looking at a few 89-91 241C's at the moment from Suburban, Blazer, but Im not sure how to ID a case with the wider input shaft bearing? I have a special input gear I have to swap in to make my trans work and it is a wide bearing gear. Im guessing that the housing between narrow and wide...

    Thinning CARC?

    I have been using MEK to thin with pretty good results. Even spraying in 50'ish degree weather it seems to set up and dry fine, just takes a bit longer. Looks like I got one more shot at spraying with a 50'ish degree day and I was wondering about using acetone to thin? Seems like it would...

    Turbo LS swap. Swamp Donkey 2 The Saga Begins.

    Kicking this idea around for a while and finally decided an LS swap is going to work for me. Why? Already have the motor and trans. I got a LY6 with the 6L90, harness, ECU, and DBW pedal for around $3500. Got a few different Holset turbos on the shelf but thinking Ill do a single HX52 just...

    Front clip interchange (88-98)?

    Just about finished replacing my trashed rockers and cab corners (84 1028). I have been looking for clean fenders and hood for a while but no luck on the 87 and earlier stuff. I see 88+ stuff looking clean all the time and curious if these parts will bolt in (fenders, inners, hood, core...

    EFI in-tank pump on OE tank?

    Anybody swap in a EFI gasser? Did you run the OE tank and find a in-tank sender with pump that would work in-tank? Or just plumb off of what is there and do an inline pump? I would prefer to go intank with the pump if I can. Can I just use a later model tank, sender/pump, and toss that onto...

    700R4 and NP205?

    I need to swap 700R4 into my 1028 and can get a great deal on a 32sp input 205 with TH400 adapter, or 27sp 205 with TH350 adapter. Found 3 different 4x4 700R4's all from 91 k5 and Silverado's. It is my understanding that the 4x4 700R4 is a 27sp output (please verify?). Im not dead set on...

    Lift/tires M1031.

    I would like to lift and fit, somewhere between a 37-40" tire on a 1031. Looks like the box is going to get in the way. Easy enough to cut out some material and make mini tubs, but I would like to keep the floor as flat and big as possible. I would do minimal lift to get the tires to fit, so...
