Mike.....when you have some time...could you post a pic of that 1980 L20B 4x4 pan....?

Like to see the differences between that and the Z22/Z24.

Think I'm gonna have some issues when I start leaning the LZ.

Thanks.

oh....and yes....a very Merry....Happy Festivus.......... :D

L 2wd left and L4X4 right

Fits like a glove.... :)

[datzenmike]

I changed the text. I think they are 2wd and 4wd truck pans. I have a couple of car and truck Z pans in my parts shed, but it scares me to go in there. :crying:

[Sealik]

The 80 axles can be used on the 81 and 82.

They are just flipped from side to side.

IE.....the 80 passenger side axle will fit the 82 drivers side.

Which would make me conclude that the diff is in a different position. :P

Not sure of the 80 diffs position...but, should be opposite compared to the 82, measured from the center of the truck.

Which then I can compare to the 83+

 

hmmmmmmmm....so what's my question again?..... :blink: .... :lol:

[datzenmike]

Christmas morn with coffey and Baileys? coffee and Kahula? coffee and Carolyn's?Which begs the question......... what did the dogs get you? huh? huh?

No Baileys yet.....have to hot wire the oven to cook my turkey....won't fit into my toaster oven :D

Safety first.....electricity and all. :blink: :)

They got me a couple of fresh turds to pick up..... :lol:,...most excellent

Got them a couple of over sized soup bones they can gnaw on later.

Let em freeze first, way easier than when steamy. ;)

You are talking about the turds...right....?... ;) ... :lol:

You know....that reminds me.....the Farmers Almanac is going to base the arrival of spring when the turds in my yard rear their 'heads'...not the ground hogs anymore.......... :lol: :lol: :lol:

[datzenmike]

Ground hogs.... pffft. We have a serious problem with the endangered Mt. Washington Marmot.. So the trapped a breeding pair and raised the young and re introduced them back into the wild. Some had tracking collars. One stopped moving so they went up in the summer and found it in an eagles nest. :D I say they should introduce some Ontario woodchucks/groundhogs and let nature take it's course.

[merlin]

you people are fucked... welcome aboard:lol: :lol:

[Sealik]

So.....just got off the phone with Barry from Shadbolt Cams.

Interesting 15 min conversation.... :)

Anywho.....

$136ish for the #449 grind/256 duration/.491 lift.

Recommended the .180 lash pads at about 7 bucks(?)a pop.

Total is about $213.

Ship it out tomorrow

[Sealik]

So...went and snapped some pics on the 'available' IMs in town.

Had a fuck of a time trying to remove the air cleaner on the 78 510.... :)

Came to the conclusion after the fact that there is a little bar next to the firewall that needs to be turned to release the air cleaner. Tried moving it initially.....didn't budge....so I physically ripped the whole thing off. Noticed it was rusted solid after the fact.

 

Here's the 79 620

 

 

 

And here's the 78 510

 

 

 

Can't see any differences.???? Shall pull the 620.

 

 

Here's the dizzy from the 510

 

 

Think I'm going to get a buddy to cut the top of the L20B TC and weld it to the top of my Z22 TC. About 3/4 of an inch down from top is a good spot. Then I'll have an 'endless supply' of Z22/24 dizzys for the LZ

Z specialties sells 180 lash pads $5.75 each

Thanks for the link.... :). ..but... I think I'll still go with the ones from Shadbolt. Being that they are already supplying the cam and shipping will be.... basically free.

'Local' business and all.... :D

 

Just bookmarked your site for future :D ...possible...purchases...

[merlin]

ummm if you're going to run a downdraft, you should come grab a pre emmissions intake off one of the l16 paperweights in my yard. WAAAYYY less junk to plug.

[datzenmike]

I think the L220B has larger diameter runners.

 

 

 

Doug........ did you pull that dizzy and leave the pedestal base on the motor???? This is bad bad behavior. Next spring you get down there and retrieve it. Always keep the dizzy and base together.

 

 

That's a remote igniter. The remote box should be found under the dash but an HEI module from a GM works as well and neater looking.

Yes.....I also need the shortest IM possible...clearance from the booster

 

 

 

When I pulled it,..I wasn't thinking off keeping it.....thus the base I left....I think :blink:

Just had to 'inspect' I guess. :frantics:

Going back there tomorrow....more stuff.

..........Bell housing...L20B mounts....etc

Also grab the base and remote of course.... :blush: ... :)

[merlin]

i'll pull an l16 mani tomorrow and see what the runners are... hopefully big enough. and its definitely shorter than those. you know, that 710 l18 has the right mani... should we go tow it?

Gonna cost about 200 bucks....not including the tow.... :)

[merlin]

i'll buy it, and we can winch it onto my trailer...

Definitely get the Flywheel for me.

 

Very ublikely but it may have an optional 5 speed. If it has a bottom pan and drain plug then it isn't but worth a look.

You home today?

 

Mike..... I'll check to see if it's the 5-speed.
