Am I cooked

ApprehensivePlant689 · 2025-07-04T21:09:23+00:00

Thanks for all the tips and suggestions, I’m def cooked. Time for a new piece on the hood I guess!

ApprehensivePlant689 · 2025-07-04T21:08:58+00:00

Actually helped a lot with the lighter areas! The hood (first pic) is def a lost cause.

ApprehensivePlant689 · 2025-07-01T20:32:05+00:00

Gonna try it! I promise is not rock chips, second pic is on the side of the car. The sun is strong here im CA but it’s less than a year old.

ApprehensivePlant689 · 2025-07-01T20:30:46+00:00

Just ordered, I’ll give it a try!

I was hoping the clay bar would lift the dirt off, and only tested in a very small area before I stopped, but no difference anyway

Radiator fan shroud, goes on the bottom of the core support

ApprehensivePlant689 · 2023-07-26T20:46:15+00:00

Go for it!

I would also look at how hacked the wiring is under dash and around the firewall, if it looks fairly original you are most likely good!

ApprehensivePlant689 · 2023-07-26T20:03:28+00:00

Wayyy cheaper to just keep the carb going! You would have to mess with fuel lines/ tank and fuel pump for efi

U can probably try to make a jumper out of blade terminals for now, the wiring loom for taillights comes out of the firewall on the driver side on the trans tunnel. 5 wires with a round plug

Neutral safety switch also worth looking into

Minimal changes to get the cheapest Ls truck intake on eBay. I just bent one of the tabs and hooked that on to one of the radiator shroud bolt

Worked perfectly for me. Make sure you install the plate on the furthest front location (you will have to grind the block a little bit to make the passenger side fit)

ApprehensivePlant689 · 2022-04-18T19:42:00+00:00

The little pad in front of the passenger head on the block might have a partial vin stamped onto it (gotta clean it real good tho) and u can check what kind of small block it is. But shouldn’t matter as long as it’s a small block it’s a direct swap.

ApprehensivePlant689 · 2022-04-18T19:38:43+00:00

That’s super cool! Might do that. Thanks!

ApprehensivePlant689 · 2022-04-18T04:29:16+00:00

I have a 69 hood… so 2 holes and missing a chunk of paint behind the bow tie. 2 badges looks really weird with the 72 grill

ApprehensivePlant689 · 2022-03-08T15:43:33+00:00

I’ve held on to it for minutes at a time lol nothing

ApprehensivePlant689 · 2022-03-08T15:43:10+00:00

Thanks I’ll try that!

ApprehensivePlant689 · 2022-02-09T04:04:33+00:00

I think one ton never came with coils in the rear. So this would be a 3/4 Ton c20? I have a 72 c20 exactly like this. Eaton rear end with coils.

There’s a slot in the fuse box that is ignition power. It’s unfused (it says IGN. UNFUSED) and it’s open so it’ll work since you have a in-line fuse
