Engine bays..

[panhandler62]

Does anyone have a clear picture of the drivers side of the engine bay circa 83?

I got a bunch of parts off an 83 for my 68 and I'm interested in seeing how the M/C and proportioning valve sit in their original configuration.

panhandler is banned because oh wait wrong thread hope this helps 82 and 83 are basically the same if you want tomorrow ill try to photo other areas if you need

All the 83 pictures you could want!!

Welll.... hmmm... The stuff I have in those pictures above was supposed to have come off an 83 3/4 ton, but it sure doesn't look much like your 82 parts.

your master seems a bit older than of 83 most of the ones from like 81 and up i see have the plastic cover and can either look like Gerados or mine most look like Gerado's
your parts are eight lug and we both have 1/2 tons
the proportioning valve you have mounts on the frame
ask GM72K10 in PM hes got both 73-87 trucks and 67-72 and will prolly know

I had on 83 c3500 and the valve was in the same place as my 76 c1500 which is under the radiator on the crossmember it would be hard to get a picture of, also my 83 had a steel master cylinder not plastic

I am definetely getting the picture that I will need to re-run brake lines. That's ok though cause I never really liked the way that the proportioning valve in the 68 just kind of hangs in space.

I guess this question needs to mutate to "What goes in the holes?" The proportioning valve in a 68 just has 4 lines in it whereas this one (for good reason, I'm sure. ) has 6. I can grasp the obvious here but which pair of small outlets goes to the rear and which to the front?

Thanks..
