    Aftermarket fiberglass door differences

    I'm in the market for a set of doors for my M1038 project. I currently have doors made by a gentleman (North Georgia Corvette?) on my M998, but looking for something of a different quality this time. Does anyone know if the West Kentucky Surplus fiberglass doors are made by the same mfg as the...

    I just installed a Painless Performance TCM on a 4 L80E mated to a 6.5TD. What are the recommended shift points & converter lock up settings? Appreciate any support.

    Need help with studs on AC bracket #12469498

    It’s m12x1.25 thread. I ended up taking Mogman’s advice & used long m10 bolts & sandwiched it. I think this compressor uses a stud with different sizes on each end.

    Need help with studs on AC bracket #12469498

    My compressor is threaded(m12)on the back side, but the thru-hole is smaller. Long story short, I purchased a ‘91 m1038 in pieces & am trying to put Humpty Dumpty back together so I’m not sure if all the components are truly meant for this application.

    Interesting, a 4 row core aluminum radiator.

    Interesting, a 4 row core aluminum radiator.

    I haven’t installed it yet, but The build quality is real nice considering it’s Chinese made.

    Interesting, a 4 row core aluminum radiator.

    It’s going to be real close to the alternator bracket. I ordered a silicone radiator hose kit & I think the upper hose is going to be short now. I might need an “S” style hose now, or I just take it to work & have one of the guys move the inlet over & plug the old hole.

    Interesting, a 4 row core aluminum radiator.

    I just bought a 4 row identical to this on Amazon & the upper inlet fitting is 6.5” from the edge & my original one is 9” from the edge.

    Purchased a 6.5td from 3500 truck for my M998 & have questions

    Thanks so much. I have a rebuilt DB2 that I'll be using. I'll search for some 6.5 N/A injectors.

    Purchased a 6.5td from 3500 truck for my M998 & have questions

    Thanks, so I should be good. What injectors should I go with? Does the compression difference between N/A & TD matter in my application? Sorry for so many questions, but I appreciate everyones knowledge.

    Purchased a 6.5td from 3500 truck for my M998 & have questions

    Another question I have is can I use a civy 6.5td block & heads but N/A it? I also want to replace the injectors. If I'm going to run it in a N/A application, which ones should I go with? The engine has 15K & is in great shape with no cracks anywhere.

    Purchased a 6.5td from 3500 truck for my M998 & have questions

    Thanks, I just ordered one. I wasn't sure if the 1pc vs 2pc rear main seal mattered. Since the new pan is deeper, do I need to replace the civy oil pump too?
