    '82 Duramax Swap Pictures

    Had a minor disaster today. While moving my engine across the garage today on the crane (to set it in the frame), a wheel locked up on something & the crane stopped. The engine swung & tipped everything over, dumping the motor on the floor. Once it started to tip, there was nothing I could do...

    McRat's and Casper's new home

    The garage looks good. I'm in need of space myself. It is amazing how prices vary by location. For reference, around here you can get a brand new 3000sq. ft. house in a nice plan for around $300-$350K. But I shoveled 4" of snow off my driveway tonight...... I could do without that.

    New project help

    I'm here doing the same thing with an 85 pickup. If you have the body wiring harness & also the body computer, just buy a used gauge panel if you do not mind modifying your dash. Otherwise aftermarket gauges/senders can be used without problems It will run without the factory dash. You...

    Political BS just like all the rest

    Shane, Be patient.... I'm a new guy to this as well & I know how frustrating it is trying to get good info. I've been reading everything in site for a month now, trying to figure it all out. I got in touch with Pat & he was very helpful, even about things that he does not sell. Pat spent...
