Re: Shimming after swap?
Well I have everything off at this point other than the cab so just waiting to see if I am going to bag it or just spindle drop it. I have my eye on a 85 that has all the air ride in it for $1000 so I am hoping to get that and stick it in mine

Re: Shimming after swap?
Question... Would a neutral safety switch being hardwired have anything to do with this?

Re: Shimming after swap?
Not sure on that one. I'll run a ground from the head to frame for safe measure. Figured it would ground to the alt. where my BIG ground is.

Re: Shimming after swap?
Sorry I must have read wrong twice I thought you had got it running, but if not try adding grounds to the block
you can never have to many but to few and you'll be surprised at the problems you will have. Ran into that a couple of times after engine swaps Posted via Mobile Device |
