True, I looked on holleys website and the HP ecu will control the primary pump as well as an output that will activate the second pump on boost so I will wire it that way. Thanks for pointing that out!

Re: 1964 Sleeper | 5.3 | 75mm turbo | Caged | 4 Link
 

Now you got the idea... many engine management systems will use a negative relay trigger for their pump(s).

Nice build by the way... keep keepin' on.

Well I actually turned 18 a could months ago :lol: not trying to BS anyone. I learned to weld when when I was about ten and have been around tools and building things my whole life. I found a passion of mine and when you work at something nearly everyday you get good at it regardless of age!

it's cool to see someone your age doing a project like this! an at the level of welding your doing is awesome, I didn't start really welding til I started on my project! I'm still learning things everyday, some people get it some never do! i'll be switching to a turbo ls, maybe twin turbo not sure just yet this next summer and i'll have a few question for you then, keep at it!

Thanks everyone! Been thinking about building some long tube headers that work on drop member/lowered c10's. Think there would be any interest in those?

Re: 1964 Sleeper | 5.3 | 75mm turbo | Caged | 4 Link
 

The relay and fuse panel is mostly wired. My OCD was in full effect while doing this

I shaved the stock intake to make it look a little cleaner and less distracting. What it looked like stock http://i1146.photobucket.com/albums/...pswvn1vv5s.jpg

great mod on the intake.

Re: 1964 Sleeper | 5.3 | 75mm turbo | Caged | 4 Link
 

Enjoying your amazing build. On your 4-link: Did you use equal length upper and lower arms? Are they exactly parallel or do you have some torque equalization built in?

Re: 1964 Sleeper | 5.3 | 75mm turbo | Caged | 4 Link
 

Better late than never.
I'm in

Killer detail work by the way

Re: 1964 Sleeper | 5.3 | 75mm turbo | Caged | 4 Link
 

The 4-link bars are equal length and can be set at three different angles, one of them being parallel.

Re: 1964 Sleeper | 5.3 | 75mm turbo | Caged | 4 Link
 

I notched frame which was the last of the fab work so I put on a coat of por15.

I can see that better in your latest pics. Looks great.

Any updates? I need some inspiration

Re: 1964 Sleeper | 5.3 | 75mm turbo | Caged | 4 Link
 

Wow! With your skills you could work at any high-end custom fab shop in the world. Those headers are a work of art. Your Dad raised an amazing young man.

Re: 1964 Sleeper | 5.3 | 75mm turbo | Caged | 4 Link
 

Thanks everyone! Sorry for lack of updates! Been working on getting the cab all finished up finally. I had a spray can of matching woodland green mixed up so I could match the replaced panels. Also sprayed some rocker guard on floor to make it al little more durable as there will be no carpet.

Really happy with how the cab turned out. There was a couple times when the cab was all cut apart I started searching the local classifieds for a new cab because I thought there was no way I would be able to pull of the rust repair.

I just removed most of the por15 from my frame. It would chip if I hit it with something then it would start to flake off in places. I ended up just shooting everything in epoxy. Hopefully you have better luck than I did!

amazing job on the cab. i think the same thing when i see some of the cabs i see being built here.

How do you like por 15? I used a similar product called KBS and like it, so I was curious to see how you liked por 15.
