Re: Daverods project 66
 

probably should have ordered it from AVS. We got a new CNC at work other one was having some problems so we have to set it up and play with it.

Re: Daverods project 66
 

Dave -where did you finally set your timing at with the new HEI? What is your plug gap setting ?

Re: Daverods project 66
 

I set my plugs at 45. I think my timing is at 8. I was moving it around to see what it did. I was kinda amazed at how much I could move it and it would still run about the same. Let me know what you set yours at.

Re: Daverods project 66
 

Got my brackets for my bags. Put everything together. Watched it go up and down and up and down. Need to hook up two more lines for my rear.:metal:

Re: Daverods project 66
 

Be careful watching that up and down stuff.

Re: Daverods project 66

Re: Daverods project 66
 

I dont know what your problem is Dave, but I haven't see a pic of the front laying frame yet.

Pics of it didn't happen.

Re: Daverods project 66
 

My front tires/wheels are to big. I have a 17" rim and the tire height is 30" they hit my cab. The tires on my 64 are only 27 " tall. If I stand on the cross member it's about 1" from the ground. Figured out why my upper arms where hitting the frame (post 1514). No shims. Need to get some 15" rims and different tires. Guess I'll pull my cab off and paint my frame next.

Re: Daverods project 66
 

seen photos of wat people did to there cabs to get 22 inch rims and tires to fit
they cut out the piece hitting the tire and weld in a piece of trailerfender , works quite good actually

Re: Daverods project 66
 

I guess I better good measure some tire wheel combos. I was thinking I would do 18 or 20's.:ito:

Re: Daverods project 66
 

Put my engine on my frame. Tested out the front bags.:metal: Everything worked good. Pulled the oil pan off my 64 and changed the gasket. What a pain in the butt.

Re: Daverods project 66
 

Hey what it that blue oval doing parked in the driveway? Your garage is much to clean .. No wonder you get stuff done. I spend way to much time looking for the parts I just set down and now cant find..... Your Frame looks good laying down on the slab!

Re: Daverods project 66
 

I knew someone would say somthing, Plan is to trade it for a s10 then put a 51 on it. Don't tell the wife it's hers and she doesnt know the plan.:lol:

Re: Daverods project 66
 

Nice work daverod. Let's see some real progress now that the weather is getting nice.

Re: Daverods project 66
 

I think real progress is linked more to money then it is to the weather.:waah: But it is nice to see summer.:metal: Least I get to drive my 64 .:mm:

Re: Daverods project 66
 

Good point. I guess I get a little lazy when it's "cold" outside. You know, down in the 50's.
Brrrr.

Re: Daverods project 66
 

Hey Dave you need a s10 frame I got one, It's just the frame. you will have to come and pick it up though.

The frame looks good.

Re: Daverods project 66
 

Thanks but I think the gas would kill the deal.;) You could bring it up here it though.;) Put it in the back of a 2 1/2 ton and tell them you need to do a road test.:lol: We use to go get fire wood that way till we rolled one off the side of the road. Told the CO someone hit us in the parking lot.:lol:

Re: Daverods project 66
 

that's funny man. It's not that easy any more.

Re: Daverods project 66
 

Ordered a trans cross member from brothers.:smoke: Thinking about getting a quart of por15 for my frame? Don't know if I'm rich enough for the por15? Feeling kind broke this month.:waah:

Re: Daverods project 66
 

Yeah im with you there dude :lol:

Re: Daverods project 66
 

When you use the POR-15 make sure it's in a clean environment because it dries very show and will collect dirt. Especially in a dry climate. Where it's humid it dries faster. And mix it really good to get all the deposits from the bottom.
