Re: Daverods project 66
I had some long tube headers for a 68 chevelle they worked out good but wont now because of airride... :lol:

Re: Daverods project 66
I bet all the trucks that are these years have rust there.

Re: Daverods project 66
I was looking at some hedman headers They say they fit c10 1955-65? I wonder why not 66? I think I'm going to put this 350 engine in my 64 for now. I won't have to worry about bags or anything because I'm not going to lower any further than it is now.My 350 will bolt right up to the 3 speed right? I know I'll have to mess with the engine mounts. I have some auto transmissions but I like driving the 3 speed.:smoke:

Re: Daverods project 66
cant remember anymore if you where the one running the dropmember front end (been reading a couple of projects that are happening on here ) but if you do you might want to talk to nathan he done a couple of those trucks and tried a lot of different headers he prolly can give you the ordernumbers for them too .

Re: Daverods project 66
hey dave check out my photobucket at my headers on my motor.
http://s581.photobucket.com/albums/ss260/ruffrida2005/ These are the headers I'm using http://www.summitracing.com/parts/HOK-2466HKR/ Fit really good, I'm running a 350T and the left header is close to the bell housing but no clearance problems. You know I still haven't made a build thread I might need to start but I dont have anything more to show. |
Re: Daverods project 66
Thanks Ruff I enjoyed the pics. Your truck is going to awsome. You better start a build thread, today.;) I like your headers because they don't hang way down. Even though I'm going to be putting my 350 in my 64 for now I might use it on my 66 later, so the headers work work better ether way. I think I;m going to get the ones you have. I'm going to leave the 3 speed into for now but I don't think I'll have any clearance issues.:uhmk:Start a thread

Re: Daverods project 66
I dont think that you will. did you check out the video that I have on their, You'll like it, Me and my soldiers hooked up out contact truck in Iraq!
|
Re: Daverods project 66
I'll check it out. Why did'nt you move your notch forward more so it cleared your swing arms?
|
Re: Daverods project 66
The video was great. Reminded me of my days with the 1016th. I'm surprised you did'nt try to lower the hummer.:lol: spinners on a hummer that's funny. You should have welded some 50 cal. bullets on them. :metal:

Re: Daverods project 66
I'm not using the trailing arms, I'm putting 2x2 on the outside so I have room for the mufflers on the inside. I may end up making it a little diffrent. Like angle the front. But I did it that way so I can have room in the front of my bed for my 8 gal air tank. My fuel cell will take up all the back.

Re: Daverods project 66
Figured out what the problem with my temp lights was. The wiring harness that ran along the side of the valve cover was wasted. The two wires that go tothe temp sensor and the one wire that goes to coil where bare.:lol: No wonder both lights would come on some time. Put new wires in, good as new. Runs a lot smoother too. I can't believe it even ran with all the wires touching like that. I'm not sure what the one wire for the coil is for but it could'nt have been good.:mm: Wish bone kit is on the way.:metal:

Re: Daverods project 66
well I hope you get it in 3-4 weeks. My crossmember took a while, but I also told Jason I was in Iraq and to take his time. took a couple months, They were supper busy. I need to get a hand gun, I'm paranoid that someones always trying to break into my house, so my shotgun stays loaded with buck. Iraq messes with a man, and 3 tours isn't good either.

Rebuilt the carb on my 292 what a difference. The accerator pump was shot so it would stumble when it took off. Now it's perfect. The float was set wrong also. Set that right. Thing about putting in a HEI distributor. Saw some on ebay for like $65. What the diff between HEI and MSD? I think just the kit to convert was $100 at checker. I'll have to look at ebay again. Cleaned my engine, shot some paint on it. Put some kitty hair on my shifter blended it in better.:smoke: Think I should move my gas line?
