Last night I finished up with clamping the intake tubes. I also drilled and taped for my boost gauge. I made up this clear plastic adapter to attach my beer tap handle to my shifter. While the shifter was out I mounted the switch for my line lock. I think I will start a collection of handles but love this one for now. It's from a small brewery about 2 hrs from me called Creemore Springs.

Here is a pic of the screen of the editing software for my transmission. I can easily do anything I want. I can change shift points, make it manual shift, shift like a Cadillac or shift like a drag car. It also shows information on what the trans is doing across the bottom.

Re: My 52 GMC Build
I like the control you have with the trans. I'm doing my first automatic build for a guy and Im leaning toward 4l60 or whatever I can get my hands on. Was looking into stand alone controllers. The control factor is a no brainer, even at higher pricing.

That's pretty cool! Beats what you got with the high dollar PCS!

So today I drove the truck out of the garage to the driveway. Brakes, power steering, transmission, gauges. All working great. I put it up on jack stands to put the transmission through the gears. I even saw 2 psi on the boost gauge. :metal: Vid below

Re: My 52 GMC Build
Thanks guys!! One of the reasons for the turbo was the whistle.
Here is a vid of me pulling it out and checking brakes, ps and gears. http://youtu.be/7YvMe3qXg0U |

Re: My 52 GMC Build
Totally bad! In an impressive way I mean.

Just watched your video. Love the sound of that motor. Do you have to keep the leash on so it doesn't run off :lol:

This will be my last update for 2 weeks as my GF and I are going on holidays tomorrow to British Columbia. Vancouver/ Vancouver island area. I will be keeping up to date tho.
So Monday I found out the plastic I used for my shifter adapter does not like -25*C -13*F. So I made this new one out of brass. Attachment 1500649 Attachment 1500650 |
