Nice. How do you like it? How is the 1.96 low range?

i had that setup in my hot rod ranger.never used it for wheeling. boy,would it burn the tires. then the tranny started makin noise(it was beat before i got it) so i swapped it to a C5

Nice. My gears are tight. Everything is in good shape. I'm not sure about the motor though. Everything seemed smooth. I'll soon find out. The flywheel is from 81. That's the 50oz imbalance right?

[Ranger Dave]

yup, as long as it has the bigger weight on the back side. this is a 28oz. your 50oz will be a bigger weight

[onewontwo]

I don't remember. When I start it will I know right away if it is the wrong one?

[Ranger Dave]

oh ya, it will vibrate

[onewontwo]

Like a rattle the dash kind of vibration or something more mellow?

[Ranger Dave]

might rattle the dash. youll know

Alright. I just don't want to get a mile in the woods and get stranded because I didn't realize there was a problem.

I went to the junkyard today. I picked up intake, carb, ignition, distributor, and a few other things. The distributor I picked up has a little shorter shaft than the one I have what should I do about this? Is there anyway to tell the difference between a duraspark i and duraspark ii. I think you can by the dist. cap but I don't remember. I have the larger cap. I need to wire it into an '88 and could use some help. Some springs and linkage is missing from the holley 2 barrel. Could use some pics to help get that straightened out.

[Ranger Dave]

did you get the modual that goes with that dist??

[onewontwo]

Yep, I took it all.

[onewontwo]

So is it okay that the dist. shaft I picked is slightly shorter than the one I have now?

[Ranger Dave]

posta pic. is the oil pump shaft hole the same size
