Well first, I Have an 84 R/C with the SCC and i want to do away with it. Heres my plan, I want to go to a junk yard and get An ECU and the wiring so i can take off the computer controler. Next, i want to buy a 600 CFM Edelbrock and a performer intake manifold. I know i will have to buy the throtle attachment linkage and the kickdown linkage. What i want to know is if anybody has done this same swap or if you guys have any tips for me. I dont want to tear the truck apart and then realize i forgot something and have to wait for a week for parts to get here.
Also, on a different note, I want to change my valve seals, but i dont want to take off the heads. I know you can get the Compressed air attachment to hold the valves in the head, but i heard somewhere that you can take a piece of nylon rope and put it in the spark plug hole and then when u turn the piston to TDC the rope will be compressed and will hold the valves closed.
Thanx in advance............
