New guy here. From PA. Some help??

Hello folks,

I just got a 71 gmc custom 2500 4x4. PS/PB/ 4 spd .

Not sure of the gears but real low. + the granny gear.


It's a little rougher then my usual junk, but I'm pretty pleased(after the panic sweating). Hey and the wife didn't hit me over the head with it. That's good.

Some Of the issues I need to get straightened out ASAP. I would appreciate any help.

1. No power brakes?? Are the boosters interchangable. What years? Pretty sure it's shot. I still need to check the line. Any pointers?

2. No exterior lights brake/headlights???? I'll check switch first then what?

2a. The little fuses at the front near the power standoffs(fusable links??) does anyone know what size they are??


3. Exhaust: It has the ramhorn manifolds. I'm looking for an exhaust from the manny's back. Any suggestions? Cheap. JC Whitney ? Or should I just cobble something together?


4. No emergency brake. it's been gutted right to the wheels. I have the pedal. It's an eight lug w/full floater rear. Any Ideas on getting parts for this? interchanges ect. Hopefully a fellow member can help out here.


5 Lastly the PO used tin foil and insulation to cover the fuel line as it comes out of the in cab tank to the lines. Need a better solution.


I realize that's quite a list. Thanks for any help.
