Re: Henry - 1984 C10
Well since my last post on this one, the truck has been giving us problem after problem. The new water pump is now the source for he leaking coolant, the new temp sender we put in does not work or the gauge is now bad, I can't get the damn 305 to run right, one day it runs fine, the next the timing is off, the next it won't idle down after warmup, the list goes on and on...
SO, we are going to be dealing with a poor running truck for the rest of the school year and collect parts for an LS swap once school is out.
We have collected the Engine (5.3 that is in my '65 for now), the PCM, another wire harness to modify, We have traded a set of LS heads for a complete working 4l60e transmission. Next on the list is the swap mounts and a new transmission cross member and mount.
Our plan it to have all the parts (minus the modified driveshaft) BEFORE we pull the current 305/700r4 out of the truck. Since we have done this a few times, I think we can do the swap in a week including getting the driveshaft re-worked.
