Re: Ok Boys and Girls it's Storytime
We met at Noble, Okla., I believe the last time you were there. You unloaded out of your trailer, just so we could see your awesome pickup. Had another friend with me that day, he and I plot together to get the "not as healthy one" out to these events.
Looking forward to hearing positive directions from your engine deal!!! Jeff |
Re: Ok Boys and Girls it's Storytime
I remember meeting y'all in Nobile. Sorry I missed ya'll in Tulsa. I misspoke about being in Nobile this year. Its going to take awhile for me to get everything back together. It will be all BRODIX !

Re: Ok Boys and Girls it's Storytime
Well after seven months of waiting I got my new heads. One problem though some dummy at UPS dropped one and damaged it. I did some mock up before I sent them back though.[IMG]http://i911.photobucket.com/albums/a.../IMG_15601.jpg[/IMG]

Awesome truck! It's cool to see one go through so much progression over a lifetime of ownership.

Re: Ok Boys and Girls it's Storytime
I have to massage the Firewall again just a little bit so the pass side head will have enough clearance. Then the truck is off to the body shop for a little TLC. Strip and redo the seamsealer on the roof and repaint a few pieces. It looks damn good for an 18 year old paint job so no need for a total repaint.
I hope to have the motor built by the end of summer. Then it has to go to the chassis shop to work on the headers. The angle on the ex ports are so far off they wont even lay flat against the head. This is going to be a single Dominator and Dry Sump combo. The goal is to make 100 more hp than the old combo. I'm in no hurry so I'm taking my time and doing the way I want it. |

Re: Ok Boys and Girls it's Storytime
Well it looks like my seven year old thread is a victim of the Photobucket greed. Funny thing is I think I was paying them on an auto renew when I started. Im still pecking away at my motor. My manifold is off being ported and I think Im going to go ahead and send the heads too (they are cnc ported). Maybe see If they can get anymore out of them. I've also committed to a big ass carburetor from Dambest it will flow over 1600 @ 17" of water. So dry flowed I would think it would be around 2000 cfm. I'll check with photobucket on my account but Ive heard they may want up to $500 to renew. Dammitt

Re: Ok Boys and Girls it's Storytime

Re: Ok Boys and Girls it's Storytime
Well guys I'm still at it. I haven't posted in awhile because the PhotoBucket BS. The truck is at the Body Shop (Or most of it). Parts are here and there most of the motor is at the machine shop. I'm trying to piece together this Dry Sump deal amongst other things. I'll try to figure out another way to post pictures. I just hate to give up all the stuff I have in this thread. If I wasn't spending so much on Hot Rod parts I may have given in to the Piracy.

Re: Ok Boys and Girls it's Storytime
Both Chrome and Firefox have fixes for the Photobucket extortion. All anyone needs to do is down load it from their web browser and they can see all of the old photobucket pics. I can see all of your old pics.

Re: Ok Boys and Girls it's Storytime
Please explain the process on the Chrome browser. Thats what I use but I dont log into Chrome.
