Crate Motor/ Small Block

June 24, 2022, 01:41:37 PM by Shamrock Motors | Views: 68 | Comments: 3

Hello All,
I am wondering if anyone has run into the issue of finding a new crate motor. Seems all the common areas to look, Summit , Jegs, Etc are either out of them or they are on back order. When I started my project of swapping out my 305 with a standard transmission I had my heart set on the 350/290 replacement engines that all the speed catalogues offered. Now I understand that they have been discontinued. Would anyone have an idea where I could get something close to that offering ?

Thanks

Wheel Swap.

June 21, 2022, 11:34:55 AM by prican_2000 | Views: 100 | Comments: 1

I have an 87 C10 with Wilwood Front Brakes and approximately 5-7 Drop (spindles and springs front, C-Notched out back) currently I have Riddler 650 wheels in 18x8 Fr on 245/40/18 and 0-Offset and 18x9.5 with 275/40/18 (also 0-Offset) and I was wondering if I could run the 18x9.5 (275/40s) in the front??? You might not be able to tell from the pics but the rears have a better sidewall profile that I would love to run in the fronts - well that and the wider wheel with the bigger lips for the front also.

The plan is to buy a set of the 20x10s (even larger lips) with some 295 or 305s to run in the back.

What do you guys think???

Right EGR Supply Port at Rochester 1ME

June 20, 2022, 05:27:18 AM by ChrisD | Views: 131 | Comments: 3

Hi,
I try to restore the emission lines at my 1978 250i6 engine and actual the egr isn‘t right installed.
At the Service Manual they write that „The diaphragm vacuum signal supply port is located in the
throttle body above the throttle valve“, but the only vacuum suply above throttle valve i know is where the choke vacuum diaphragm unit is connected.
Can someone make a photo where the egr is connected normally or knows a site where i can have a look?

Thanks
Chris

After market temp gauge

June 13, 2022, 06:09:38 PM by jsc | Views: 184 | Comments: 2

Recently my '83 C10 overheated. Turned out to be a faulty radiator cap. But now my aftermarket temp gauge will not rest on "cold" even after it's been parked a couple of days.

Any thoughts?

Thanks,
John
