'89 R3500 Crew Cab 2wd to 4wd conversion & beyond

[mrk5]

Headers mocked in place for spark plug wire decisions. The plugs are much more accessible than I remember any ever being on the 350's I've put headers on.

The plugs are painted because they are going away.

Obviously 90 degree boots aren't going to work unless I route under the headers - which I'm not.

So I ordered up multi-angle plug wires from Jegs and some looms from Chevy Performance.

These are the type you cut and crimp to fit.

FWIW I found the 135 degree Taylor's work really well with the headers. The 90's didn't work for me.

I was thinking about those but decided on the multi-angle wires.

purdy! quite the change!

Love these little starters you can get nowadays.

Was that for a 168 tooth?

My starter sucks

 

[mrk5]

It will do both 168 and 153.

I don't understand why you guys are so far behind as far as starters, and probably alternators...
It's really nice having a source like Western Alternator!!

You are lucky to live so close to Pat. Not only a good wheelin' companion but also does the cool electrical stuff.

Because you bought a truck instead of building one

Uh-huh, like it had a one wire CS130 on it when you sold it??

 

[Bent77]

Just like it had s mini starter...

Read this with a whiny voice in your head.

But he started it! He's trolling me!

Do we really have to behave?

 

[Smokinthehippies]

He can ban stick you both!

 

[Bent77]

I was even asking legitimate questions

Scott are you patching back to the existing exhaust?
