    Transmission for 318?

    (75 w100 318la) as I'm going forward with building my first vehicle ever, I'm finding of course, I know nothing. My factory manual trans has a crunchy second and I'd love to replace it before putting down lots of power. I'd really love to keep it manual. Do you guys know any trans I can put it...

    Alternator "suicide"?

    This morning I went to start "the hog" (75 w100 power wagon,318,4spd) and it started but turned off because my timing and choke wasn't enough. I popped the hood to see my red wire from the alternator in the process of burning. FML! About a month ago I used a wire brush to clean the outside of...

    What to search / looking to buy

    I'm looking for a wire set for inside of my dash. The dials don't light up when turned on, it's modded out with dead frayed wire ends, too much wire, just clapped out. I don't know what to search or can't find the wire set for the dials and such on the inside of the dash. If you know where to...

    Exhaust next or distributor?

    Just wrapped up a 4 barrel swap and and torn between the two. Exhaust is easier cus no wiring and cheaper, but my coil pack and distributor are factory, could probably use a refresh of course.

    Avoiding electrical fires after a near miss?

    I just finished up my four barrel carb swap, I'm redoing it unfortunately to fix a manifold vac leak. I had the coil pack grounded to the intake, and I forgot to connect the temp sending wire. But the other day I went to move it, it was under powered due to the leak, but it shot a big plume of...

    75 318 timing

    I know to remove the plug and finger then turn the balancer. But with my finger in the whole and it pushing air out, how will I be sure I'm at top dead center? What's the tell? I may have answered my own question. When the harmonic balancer mark shows 0 on the timing tab, the engine is at top...

    1976 w100 manual carb throttle linkage?

    have a 318 la hooked to the 4 speed manual and cannot figure out this connection. I bent the throttle cable adapter to accommodate the 4 barrel and put the GM to molar edelbrock conversion arm on and still don't understand how it goes on

    1975 w100 clutch??

    I believe my truck has the factory clutch, I'm sure you can understand my thoughts. All i can find though are ultra mega super duper grip grab grop clutches for drag cars with the 318. however that's not the only thing, I have never bought a clutch before and want something that can work well...

    Advice on next steps?
