so guys ,
i took on my moms silverado project and it has turned in to my build for a personal truck .
its a 3/4 ton 82 with a ls 427 BBC engine and five speed trans. nothing fancy nothing pretty.
i recently crashed a factory 454 gmc 1500 1/2 ton pick up and got the intact 454 out of it for my silverado since the 427 needs a ring.
the 1500 gmc was auto trans Th400 and Monte Pratt two piece driveline to a ten bolt rear axle . nice truck while it lasted . since the 82 silverado has a MT i have to grab a 454 168 tooth flywheel, pilot bushing, clutch disk, and, pressure plate as well as a clutch release bearing . to make the swap . Unfortunately the internally balanced 427 cam prevented me from making that 427 168 tooth flywheel bolt to this 454 ....or not without a decent amount of vibrations that would ruin the motor. so i got the heavy duty replacement fly wheel with the ring ,the clutch kit, and, a new set of header gaskets .. can anyone see if I'm missing anything here that's going to hamper me from getting this truck back together and operating ?
header gaskets , fly wheel w/ ring gear, clutch disk is standard 10 spline 12" disk, and, pressure plate a throw out bearing pilot bushing and a bit of grease? sound right ........? pictures will be posted as soon as i get em taken . thanks!
