They are metric but, I don't remember off hand what size.

Hey! Are you sure that's not my truck??? Except the stripes are on backwards. I like it! Buy it or let me...

"83 GS1100E. Bought one new in "83 and sold it a few years later. Finally found a nice one to replace it a couple years ago. Only has 10k miles on it. Image Not Found

3.4 out of a Camaro. Bolt in swap.

I run lincoln welders so, I'm not familiar with Hobart. The Lincolns have 2 different grooves in the feed roller for different diameter wire. Are you running the right size groove for the wire diameter? That's really all that comes to mind other than different tip orifice size.

I think it would be cooler if he mounted the NOS and batteries in a toolbox. Then it would look like a real truck..... :thumbsup:

Do you guys have a Six States distrubutor there? That's where I found mine.

A 4.3 will NOT bolt place of a 2.8. The only engine that will interchange is a 3.4 from a Camaro/Firebird. The 2.8 has a different bell housing bolt pattern than the 4.3. You would also have to swap the transmission if you went with the 4.3.

I talked to myself but, apparently I wasn't listening :dunno: :dunno:

That could have been sooo ugly. Someone was watching over your trip. 8.8 looks good in there though. :thumbsup:

You're a 2 fisted drinker, eh?

I think that may be sealant that squeezes out when the tubes are pressed into the center section on assembly. It looks like an O-ring 25 years after the fact.

Do I even want to know a snog let alone hum it? :doh:

The plug on the right side is the reverse light switch. Not familiar with one on top.

Just exactly what he ^^^ said. :thumbsup:
