That is a great magazine and I highly reccomend subscribing. And yeah, that article almost makes me wish that some previous owner hadn't put the 283 in my truck. But hey, I still get around 17 mpg; w

Are you after the assembly of the separate metal pieces or the wood and skid strips? I have an assembly manual but I didn't find it of much use when replacing my wood. Luckily I had enough of the old

Hi Mike, Sorry it took me so long to reply, but I finally checked my '58 packet. I have the page T-8, but I'm missing all the other pages that you are too. Maybe Chevrolet lost them? If anybody else

I used to have a '63 Chevy with a lever like that. It seemed to be for some auxillary brake system, like for a trailer or something, since it was plumbed into the brake lines and the truck had a quic

Too small a seal driver could make a difference. With bearing races, I guess you would have to go on the smaller side to fit inside the opening, but these seals only have to be flush with the opening

I haven't heard of those gears for our trucks; my flyer shows 3.70 as an option for '58, with the 3.90 as standard. The standard tires were 6.70 - 15/4PR and the "Maximum" was 7-17.5/6PR. I have no i

Tim, that's crazy. Not you, the situation! I've never changed the gas lines on my truck, and I've had it since 1988 or so, no problems. I'm not saying that you should be able to do that, and as I wri
