No problem :)

I'm pretty sure a machine shop can measure it for you with the right equipment too.

A fat one :D

Wait, wut? How-to? Parts #s? Etc.?

What upgrades are typically done for a street driven 700R4? If I build a motor for the truck the 700 that it has won't live too long unless I baby it. I'm starting to look around at what would be better... buy a core and have it built, or buy one already built from somewhere online... yes this...

The pan will be your biggest indicator. If it's a stock G-Body it will likely be a 350, 200, or 2004R depending on model & year. 1 Aluminum Powerglide 14 bolts 2 TH200 Metric 11 bolts 3 TH350 13 bolts 4 TH400 13 bolts 5 TH200-4R 16 bolts 6 TH700-R4, 4L60, 4L60E 16 bolts 7 4L80E...

Looks good :D 2 questions: 1)Your grill looks different, did you do something to it? 2)What's the [M~1]Black_Majik tag for? :D

I don't know if the colors will be the same for Olds as Chevy, but: http://www.maliburacing.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=19&t=87865&p=665055&hilit=paint+chips#p665055

Looks good :D

I came across this on craigslist 8) Not too bad for a long block, especially if you're planning on going carbed anyway. http://tucson.craigslist.org/pts/1823664427.html

I'm not too worried about width or bolt pattern, it would be narrowed to stock G-Body width and have aftermarket axles. I guess the main question was the upper ears, now I'm assuming I'll need spherical ends, or cut the original brackets out & weld ones in that are at the proper angle. Any...

Don't use it as an ignition source. Power goes through the bulb, so anything you supply to it would be getting less than 12v, plus the light would possibly turn on, leaving you scratching your head. Only way I can think of for ignition-switched power in a G-Body is running a new wire and...

That's what turns the alternator on. The circuit goes something like this: battery - fuse block - ignition switch - "charge" bulb (in the dash, same as the 'battery' bulb) - brown wire that goes to the alternator. The wire that goes to this plug on either a CS or SI alternator both do the...

Off-road time! :rockon: :lol:

w00t! ;) http://www.gofastnews.com/showthread.php/641-Scat-s-drop-in-383-Simple-Build-Simple-Budget You're my hero for finding this :lol: Makes building a 383 at home even easier... so long as there isn't any clearancing required (he said about a 95% probability with a late model block) 8)...

Are they capable of going out .250"??? Most any SBC I've seen is lucky to get .100", but then again since it's a BBC it may have more room to grow. If the deck height and stroke are the same the same as the older BBC, then you should be able to use the same pistons... UNLESS there is a...

Just be sure to have it checked... if everything checks out then great :D

The wristpin is moved up according to the rod length and difference in stroke, but as far as the overall height I believe they're typically the same. Taking a 383 piston, 5.7" rod for example... you use half of whatever the stroke is because half of it moves the piston up in the bore, and the...

I tried Caprice too... there are quite a few caprice posts too, but I don't know if the word Caprice is mentioned in the thread(s) I'm looking for... same with B-Body though I suppose. That link is for one of them I believe, but there are a couple others. I know someone mentioned they got one...

So there are a few posts floating around about swapping a B-Body 8.5 in, but I can't find any of the posts by searching... b-body returns nothing, 8.5 is ignored in the search, etc... :-({|=
