Re: What did you do to your truck today part IV
Finally got my seats installed. 2003 Blazer Seats with shoulder belts. Driver is power...I need to build a little bracket to house the controls. Had to build a rail for the inside track on both seats, was a PITA but it's done now. Super comfortable compared to the stock seats...stock seats are available if anyone is looking?

I threw together a cup holder. It will go in the cab corner. I will not be able to drink out of the drink while driving. It is more of a place to put a takeout cup on my way home. I am going to put some hook Velcro on the outside to help if stay in place.

I cut the super rusty 69 bed sides off my trailer today so that I can bolt on the old bed sides I recently swapped out from Frankentruck

I installed my Clifford intake with 12Bolt cast iron headers and a Holly 450 3BBL (converted via 12Bolt kit) and got it fired up last night!
Need to dial it in now and get an exhaust installed. https://photos.smugmug.com/Cars-and-...eaders-1-M.jpg https://photos.smugmug.com/Cars-and-...ly3BBL-1-M.jpg https://photos.smugmug.com/Cars-and-...rCleaner-M.jpg I borrowed this pipe bender from a neighbor to bend my throttle linkage and it rocks! https://photos.smugmug.com/Cars-and-...Linkage2-M.jpg https://photos.smugmug.com/Cars-and-...Linkage1-M.jpg https://photos.smugmug.com/Cars-and-...yLinkage-M.jpg Initial results... Sounds Good! |

Re: What did you do to your truck today part IV
I upgraded the shift knob on my B&M ratchet shifter...This was from a walking stick I've had for years that is no longer made, a resin skull with actual silver overlay so it has an amazing look and feel...well, as long as you like skulls. ;)

Re: What did you do to your truck today part IV
I upgraded my headlight circuit to full 12GA Wires, 12GA Relays, Circuit Breakers (H/L) and Ceramic Connectors to put more power to the lights and off the switch. Currently running Phillips Halogen Sealed Beams. The difference was AMAZING this morning on the way into work! So much more light than I had previously. I read that you lose up to 30% light output with factory wiring, it sure looked like a lot more than that to me when it was all done.
Next up, Cibie 82440 glass with HELLA H4 100/80W High Wattage Bulbs. |

Re: What did you do to your truck today part IV
When I was rebuilding my engine. I found a dist that I didn't know where it came from. It looked new so I dropped it in points and all. The truck started running a bit jerky and I figured it was an ignition problem.
I was up in Reno last week so I strolled into The Summit Racing Store and picked up a new Petronix Dist. I installed it and re gaped the plugs to .040. One was actually at .050, no wonder why the points couldn't keep up. I must say the difference is night and day with the new dist in. |
Re: What did you do to your truck today part IV
Upgraded alternator after mine failed on me last week. Went with a Delco Internally Regulated model so deleted the external regulator and adjusted wiring, and upsized the lead wire run from battery to alt to 10GA. Much better now!

I'm going to shampoo the seat I found that Pick-n-Pull for 60 bucks. I do have a seat cover for it just want to clean it up a bit before I put it in my truck.

I finally got around to putting my cheap seat cover on the seat and putting it in my truck. Also, put in an original set of seat belts. They are out of a 66 but its ok. I believe the date was 1/20/66.

Re: What did you do to your truck today part IV
That seat fits well, good job. :)
