unless you prise up the fuel rail a 1/4", and move the injection harness off the manifold, you can't put the runners in

you do it the easy way... I usually hold the lug with pliers and drill until it hangs up and takes a chunk of my hand out :lol:

too many times in the past, to repeat that blunder,lol,wanted to show the young'uns how to support work and not let the work walk up the drill bit

one of my first jobs after tech. school, I was on a surface grinder. sent the part I was working flying across the shop. everyone on the floor, stopped what they were doing and looked at me, almost hit the owner

hey Jim I'm only up to 7 ...unbelievable i wish i had gone thru your build thread before i saw the truck my hats off to you and the transformation you have preformed on you truck over the years skilled is an understatement hope to see you again soon

Re: PO has me PO'd
 

Man i love those TPI intakes. Always good to remember that any progress is good progress.. keep chippin away!!

Re: PO has me PO'd
 

thanks Jess, you're still at the ugly stage. stop by, anytime! always great to BS with another motorhead. It's just a labor of love.
Had to take some time off, putting a roof on my sons old barn/workshop

thanks for stopping by, yeah, I agree love the look of the TPI intake, might buy the kit to straighten out the runners. Progress is ALWAYS slow for me, to many irons in the fire. I'll have to check out your build thread

Re: PO has me PO'd
 

Getting closer Jim.

Looks like you need a few bolts in you exhaust manifold.

Take Care.

I think all the bolts are in, just need to torque
unless you mean t he cast in boss

Be sure and use some copper anti seize compound on that SS hardware.

it fits cap'n, I guess she stays

tom, thanks for the reminder, how about nickel, instead of copper. I think it has higher temps.

Yep, it looks like she fits.........just don't get too engrossed in machining something and forget about that step over to the right :)

Copper is the high heat stuff.
PS... I want a mill like that. So useful.

Re: PO has me PO'd
 

Thanks Tom for setting me straight. Machinery is pretty cheap around here, I only paid 400 for this one, even came with a electric cross feed and vice.It's 3 phase, so I have to change the motor. there is a bearing company that wants me to key shafts for them, so I will have work this winter

Re: PO has me PO'd
 

You are kidding me! Around here a Bridgeport like that would go for about 10X that. A wore out Bridgeport would still be $2K+.

Re: PO has me PO'd
 

well, we lost a lot of manufacturing in this area, auctions for this stuff is all over the place. MAYBE I should buy it up and deliver out there

That's a nice light, but it may obstruct your view slightly driving down the road? :lol: :lol:

What voltage is your motor? If it's 208, keep the 3 phase and use a variable frequency drive(VFD). I run a few of my machines this way and now prefer small 3 phase motors over single phase because I can make them variable speed. Best part is that a VFD is relatively cheap to buy.
