Re: Twin Turbo and Dropmember equipped, Jeremy's '65
 

Those intakes suck! (Just kidding)
I am so F-ing jealous right-now!
It really blows when someone like you comes on the site & makes us work twice as hard to get any kind of recognition!
I will be watching this build religiously for cool ideas & tips!
I am sad that I can't do it like you are.
Great job so far!

Re: Twin Turbo and Dropmember equipped, Jeremy's '65
 

Thanks I think...... Chris at Chicken City Hotrods has a ton of time in the frame and Drew Talbert at Four Seasons Auto is doing a killer job on the engine setup. My wallet is screaming...

Re: Twin Turbo and Dropmember equipped, Jeremy's '65
 

That motor is just intense, the more I look at it the more amazed I am. Really nice job.

Re: Twin Turbo and Dropmember equipped, Jeremy's '65

What did you use for a bushing in the centre of the watts link
Posted via Mobile Device

Re: Twin Turbo and Dropmember equipped, Jeremy's '65
 

It uses a pair of sealed bearings, not a bushing. It's a kit from Thorbecke Bros. A quality piece in my opinion.

Re: Twin Turbo and Dropmember equipped, Jeremy's '65
 

Dude!
Ultra-nice work!
how are you cutting the shtuff from plate? with a plasma, or having it laser cut?
Hopefully you are not doing it by hand, but real kudo's if you are.

Re: Twin Turbo and Dropmember equipped, Jeremy's '65
 

Kudo's are due. It's cut by hand. Chris has got mad skills.

Re: Twin Turbo and Dropmember equipped, Jeremy's '65
 

Thanks! I cut the bag crossmember plate by hand. I used a 3" hole saw and a 4 1"2 cutoff blade in a grinder. After the holes were drilled I used 2" and 3" rolocs to grind the radius. The 4 link and Watts link tabs were laser cut cause they came in kits but I did all the fitment to the tubes by hand. You'd be surprised what you can do with good hole saws and good quality abrasives.

WOW!! Very nice progress :metal:

Re: Twin Turbo and Dropmember equipped, Jeremy's '65
 

Thanks! Saw your truck a couple months ago at Caffeine and Octane. Outstanding work!

Re: Twin Turbo and Dropmember equipped, Jeremy's '65
 

Big kudo's to you!!!
I understand and can appreciate your skills!
But you would also be suprised what you can do with an autocad .dxf file and a decent laser source.
I guess that I seem to lose touch a little, as I help manage a specialty tooling shop where I have contacts that I source tube-bending, and laser work with on a regular basis....But you still have to draw it, and send them a file, and a lot of times it is easier to do it on-the-fly!
Awesome build BTW!!!!

Re: Twin Turbo and Dropmember equipped, Jeremy's '65
 

Thanks, you sure it was Caffiene and Octane? I haven't made it there yet.
