Thanks Tim, I keep going backwards, I'm supposed to be working on the motor. M&H should be sending my harnesses back next week. Maaco called me today, fenders are done, first time they stayed tacky so he had to redo them

Placed an order for my front headlite harness from M&H, mods to include...Hi and Low beam relays, Alt. pass. side w/ SI hook up. I have to send my engine harness back so the can add a 12 volt source to it. Asked about why they use a pink wire instead of red, it turns out that pink indicates a keyed source as opposed to red which is a constant source of 12 volts, learn something new everyday

can never have enough pink in a harness

OK, no disagreeing with your rationale.

Picked up fenders at Maaco, 2 part epoxy primer in white, with fender badges from JBristo. Gotta paint the red insert

I dunno Jon, maybe because something that was stronger than the sheet metal moved it into that shape? Why do you ask?

GMC Support?...(sssshhhhh). Almost everything coming in lately is late model stuff. I've sent a few different samples out for costing on these trucks...awaiting the "Bottom line" to find out if we'll move forward on them

I feel your pain. I have gotten where I do all my own part research at home and then just go in asking for the specific part number. :waah: Seems like I don't make as many mistakes as some of those guys, and that's saying A LOT!

Re: PO has me PO'd

Well, just got my seat tracks for the utilities from Low'nSlow. Very clever to wire the whole thing together in case the box breaks open, smart guys on this board. The shop rags were a bonus, nice surprise! Thanks Doug. Now I can use a drivers side for the passenger(don't want the seat to flip forward)
Since the bolt pattern is longer by 3" I can use the shorter bucket seat holes to mount up an alum. plate as an underfloor stiffner
The three of us will get busy cleaning and painting, maybe this project will go faster with the extra help

Modified M&H wire harness showed up yesterday, it has a green wire marked halagen lights, don't know what that is all about. Has relays for high and low beam, wired for SI Alt. and now has a fusible link that it didn't have before. Ordered the M/C Booster locally again, we'll see if they get it rite

Re: PO has me PO'd

I bought a master/booster for a 72 3/4 ton 4X4 as the 3/4 tons have a dual diaphram booster and they allow the brakes on my 4X4 Blazer to work effortlessly vs the hard peddle I used to have, now it'll stop fast enough it feels like your eyes are going to pop out!? I can get a part number if that'll help ya?

Thanks for the hello...getting ready to go play with the wiring harness, anything new in your neck of the woods. That was a pretty massive tearout on your frame, is it fixilble.

I think I know the reason you're burning spark plug boots...

Bin in there since 4 AM, second pot of coffee! Sure is nice to walk down the steps and see the ol' girl waiting for me. Finally the heater is keeping up with the outside temps, gotta address that next season, LOL

This harness is the best... two minor issues

Re: PO has me PO'd

Used alum. thread serts to mount it up. Relays have tobe moved up about 1/2" to clear the cover plate. Rotated the Volt. Reg. CCW 90 degrees. I can see a future post complaining about the PO, and what kind of voltage regulater is this...

Still not sure if I have a handle on the BLOCK ASM SPL JUNC. mounted on the passenger side fender, per the factory wire diagram
