assuming this is an automatic transmission youre talking about you can install a transmission cooler and service the transmission (change the fluid and filter) every 50,000 miles. that will ensure longevity for your trans. hope this helped you out

With an '84, it's likely that you can make this conversion, providing it is within your state inspection allowable mods, otherwise you can't. Most header manufacturers make a complete system front to back...follow their advertized pipe diameters if you want to make your own. When adding headers, don't expect a huge performance or mileage gain... This can be obtained by careful research and matching a total system including carb/FI, manifold and camshaft changes. In "fine tuning" and proper matching of these items, you can get the best performance possible. Aside from that, a normally aspirated smallblock chevy will usually respond best to a 1 7/8" header tube diameter W@ith a 3" or slightly larger collector, unless you are using a really radical cam and huge carb & intake.
Good luck with your project!!!

There is a lot of current going from the battery to the starter, and if the wire is frayed and broken, the current is having to go through fewer wires, which will get hot and eventually burn out. Go ahead and replace the wire now rather than wait for it to fail.

Headers are a tubular fabricated replacement to your cast iron exhaust manifolds.

I have always had better luck with the haynes manuals. Especially if you need the specific one for your vehicle.
The big hard bound Chiltons cover many vehicles and is more vague

Mild cam, aftermarket intake with better carb and headers will give you a bit better performance but you can't really get too radical or you will just start breaking stuff. Tunable ignition is nice but really expensive for anything that works. Or, just get a 350v8 and stuff it in there!

If it is for that truck it will be fine,
BUT the computer does not have a whole lot of control to see you spend that kind of money in this type economy.
IF you really want to spend the money... you will see a SLIGHT difference but not something I would do

No on something that old... as long as your Carb is tuned right... your emissions will stay down and you will likely see some better performance!

no there is no chip available for your vehicle. your vehicle is not a computer controled high performance type where a performance chip would boost power

check your ground cables on the battery to the frame

You need to find the ground wire that goes to your dash instrument panel. There is a ground wire that is lose or broken Make sure that all the ground wires are clean and tight.You could try to run a ground wire from your panel to a good ground place. ( This always don't work) but I have done it like this before and worked great. It is only a quick fix, It should be done right. But make sure that you have a really good ground on both the metal panel and metal on your firewall.

If its an auto box you fill up the tranny through the dip stick tube. You have to be very careful and patient as it can take a while to do.

Check the ground circuit of the gauges sonds like a loose ground wire somewhere

The fuel pump circuit goes through the oil pressure sending unit. If the unit thinks the oil pressure is too low, it will shut the fuel pump off. Make sure the oil pressure unit is correct for your vehicle. If you disconnect the harness at the sending unit the truck won't start and run. You can try re-seating the connector on the sending unit again. Check the terminals in the harness connector, make sure they are tight.
Let me know.
