Nice to see the progress on your '68 - beautiful truck. Small project for me yesterday. I swapped out my OEM-style starter to a Powermaster 9112 hoping to solve a heat soak issue. Wow - wish I would have gone with a high torque starter sooner. Keep the pics coming!

I am finishing up an intake reseal, new radiator, new timing gear/chain set, and new alternator install. This photo was before I pulled the carb apart, gave it a run through the ultrasonic cleaner, and reinstalled. Now I have a fuel leak at the fuel pump that I guess monkeying around with the fuel line caused. This is the fun stuff right? Still need to repaint the oil filler cap as now it stands out with everything else cleaned up. |

New rear shocks. OEM Spectrum, nothing fancy. For once, things went pretty much as expected ;-)
Spec is for 75#, but there is no way the existing ones were nearly that tight. :shrug: |

Making some more progress. Got the offset dowel pins in and the got the final runout ran and all set for the tremec. Then got the new clutch installed.
Also this past week got all the stuff being moved over from the 350 to the 327. Just a little more cleanup in the engine bay and this motor will be ready to drop back in to the truck. |

Making headway on more wiring.
Electric fans, Lokar kick down, MSD-6AL2, Vintage Air, and MSD HVC II coil all wired up. Sorry, no idea how to flip picture. |
