Re: 86 Silverado Father and Son project
Update time
 I ended up doing what I drew for the fuel system, except I'm using the original steel lines behind the switch from the 86 and high PSI rubber from the tanks switch to the pump and from the pump to the engine. Also probably high PSI rubber for the return. Gonna see how that works out. If it doesn't I'll likely put two in-tank pumps in and run a high pressure switch. Anyway, it's stabbing time!      More to come in the morning. |

Re: 86 Silverado Father and Son project
Well the heart surgery is complete.
 All I lack now is hooking up the fuel lines, driveshaft, trans lines, power steering, heater hoses, throttle cable, shifter linkage, and a few wires. Then we should be driving. It's quite a bit to do, but I got time. |

Re: 86 Silverado Father and Son project
Are you going to move starter main feeds to passenger side?
AC - you have non AC engine in AC equipped truck - any plans? Your photos of doing this swap during winter break brings out old memories (of doing the same some 30 years earlier! ) Keep on going. //RF

For the AC I'm gonna adapt the compressor to the old dryer, but I'll worry about that in the spring. |

Re: 86 Silverado Father and Son project
Alright it's ALIVE!!! I got most of everything wired and hooked up and it fired up first try!
Soldering  I still have to do the exhausts and either shorten or adjust the throttle cable. I also am going to use the TBSS manifolds that my dad got a while back, instead of the truck manifolds. The truck manifolds had the normal passenger side issues and the driver side manifold dumped into the bottom half of the frame. Pics of the drivers side.

The driveshaft is too short  Not a huge deal but just more $$$$$$. I got some new mufflers, they were cheap but so am I.  Got the oil pressure sending unit installed  The power steering lines from the '94 TBI were a direct bolt in so that's good.

Re: 86 Silverado Father and Son project
Alright, so earlier when I said it fired right up, it did, but it would die after about 3 seconds. We figured it was just the O2 sensors struggling with adjusting to the open exhausts. We tested the fuel pressure at the rails and it was like 14 psi. So, we tested the voltage to the fuel pump and it was like 7v. It turns out we needed to flip the orange power wire and the green PCM signal wire on the relay.
So know it's truly running under its own power! Here's a little start up vid...sorry about the terrible filming. |
