Video from yesterday on the way to work
 
Was on the way to work yesterday morning and couldn't resist getting some video of the truck accelerating. I used the camera strap to hold the camera, so don't worry, was being safe. ;)

Now don't go laughing at the crappy steering wheel - I've got different one that will be installed at some point. And as for having both the 4 on the floor and the 3 on the tree shifter, well, haven't gotten around to yanking the old column in favor of the tilt that I have ready.

The first clip is larger but ya get to watch the tach. Gets a bit bouncy once I get into 4th gear.

Video file about 6 megs

Audio only MP3 file, much smaller

I now know I have a problem - I have found my self control is a bit lacking as I just can't keep my right foot off the go pedal

:burnout:

I see you fixed the motor problem, now you have to work on that right foot
Isn’t the torque of that BIG BLOCK a kick in the a$$.
How about some new pic’s, would like to see your progress

Yukon Jack 10-14-2005 02:53 PM

And yes, the torque is something else - pretty addictive.

Ole Blue 68 10-14-2005 04:51 PM

I love that sound!

And looking at those new pics, I like your door panels. Did you do those yourself?

Yukon Jack 10-14-2005 05:14 PM

Yep, I used the old panels as templates and made the new panels from bathroom grade backing board. I then glued foam to the panels followed by the fabric that matches the seats.

Alexis 10-14-2005 05:20 PM

How about a clip from in front of the motor while reving it? :cool:

Sounds good. God I miss my 3/4ton.

llegos 10-14-2005 08:10 PM

gotta get that speedo working too....

Yukon Jack 10-14-2005 08:16 PM

The column shifter is to confuse the competition lol. As for the speedo, I keep thinking about whether to try to sell the mechanical and go with an electric - sure would make calibrating it easy if I go electric.

BOSS 10-14-2005 08:42 PM

Awesome!!!!!!!!!!

dion 10-15-2005 01:14 AM

What kind of gauges are those? I'm looking to replace my stock with something with numbers. I'm kinda liking Autometer Phamtom.

So, where did you get the fabric that matches the seats?

I have a similiar pair sitting in my garage...
