All set. Thx all.

I cleaned it up again and this time filed the contact areas, like MGM86. Now it's working fine. Thx all! Here's some dirty pictures

I am looking for a working TRW power steering pump around this vintage. I've attached a picture of what I'm looking for. I have the mounting brackets and pulley. Just need the pump.

Hi! I've got my gauge cluster out. It felt like a risky venture pulling it. I did drop the steering column down. Also, iremoved the adjacent bezel panels. But it was very, very tight in between the upper and lower dash pieces. It felt like i was going to break something. Soon I'll be installing...

I just changed the old bulbs to some new led bulbs in my gauge cluster. I did it because it barely lit up with the old bulbs in it. Now the new LEDs mostly don't light up at all. I got one of them to light up just a little bit. I'm thinking that the dimmer switch Isn't sending enough voltage. On...

Hi! I'm in the process of eliminating the mess caused by the Ammeter. So far I've ran a 10 Ga. wire from the alternator to the battery with a 100 amp maxi fuse proir to the battery.

So far so good.

Thanks for all the information and pictures. I think I'm ready to put it on now. I'm planning using the pan only and adding a homemade insulator. My pics coming soon.

I'm installing the original cast iron intake back on my 383. I bought a valley gasket and some fiber gaskets that were listed as needed to go with it. I have two questions. First, are the fiber gaskets optional or necessary. My past experience w GMs makes me think they are optional? Also, the...

I'd really like both.

Thanks, I will definitely take advantage of the extra inch. Those brakets look interesting too.

I'll be pulling out my very standard no frills bench seat soon. I've got new carpet to place. The seats only control is back and forth. My problems are this. It's very tight for me even w the seat back all the way. Once I get the the seat out. I plan on pulling out anything that could make the...
