Re: 68 aka "Chained in Porterbuilt Prison"
 

this is what I had to do temporarily to sit cab down tonight..engine and trans are at my max at 5.2* down...I already don't like that much drop....will look into it more wkend.....more worried now about that big azz u-joint behind tailshaft!!!...real easy to clearance bellhousing area and high hump still covering opening....but rear may be a little harder.......Love that crossmember shot.....jim

Re: 68 aka "Chained in Porterbuilt Prison"

Re: 68 aka "Chained in Porterbuilt Prison"
 

Very nice progress. What's the deal on the transmission interference? I thought the 4l80 would fit with a high hump? Did you drop your cab? Maybe I missed it in one of your posts?

Re: 68 aka "Chained in Porterbuilt Prison"
 

lookin good , the change of dash will give it a total different feel , when sitting in it :chevy:

Re: 68 aka "Chained in Porterbuilt Prison"
 

No the cab is on stock mounts....new ones.....with upper shims....will look more tonight...jim

Re: 68 aka "Chained in Porterbuilt Prison"
 

Hi .
can you tell me who the steering column is made by and also the brake booster . regards warren

Re: 68 aka "Chained in Porterbuilt Prison"
 

Well Jim, as posted on 67cheby build a few days ago, I finally got the chance to go over all your build today. Everything that all the guys have said about your build is echoed by me. Just a great build. I did a 67 for a friend a few yrs ago (before I knew about this site). It sure would have been a lot of help to me to have had help from this site (lot of great people and great builds). I will continue to watch and enjoy your build and learn more and more each day....Jim :metal::metal:

Re: 68 aka "Chained in Porterbuilt Prison"
 

I did the same and echo your thoughts on this site.....Mike has been inspiration to me as well as lots of others....I do most of my own work...with not a lot of high end tools....as do most on here....I don't fish...don't skydive...do gamble...(oh boy)......lol......Just work on my vehicles and take care of family...
More pics of clearancing high hump late tonight..........jim

Re: 68 aka "Chained in Porterbuilt Prison"
 

so that is the 4l80? just checking for clearance too.

Re: 68 aka "Chained in Porterbuilt Prison"
 

Texas speed is putting it all together for me but would like to get a little jump on the cab fitting if possible, i have the body drop on there so thats another 3/4"

Re: 68 aka "Chained in Porterbuilt Prison"
 

I've got stock brackets....stock mounts with 1/8 shims.....the lowered truss mounts to lower 6.0 3/4".....5* drop...and tailshaft hits right in front of the high rib in floor behind the end of h. hump....in other words ...i had to clearance at rear and at bell housing area....pics tomorrow ...didn't quite get done tonight.....jim

Re: 68 aka "Chained in Porterbuilt Prison"
 

looking good subscribed

Re: 68 aka "Chained in Porterbuilt Prison"
 

column is rcp brand and booster is a generic 8".....both from overseas I'm sure but quality is good......jim

Re: 68 aka "Chained in Porterbuilt Prison"
 

Will be waiting for the pics.....Jim
