Re: 1964 GMC 1500 "crustine" semi- build.

Alrighty!!!!! So Today's update!

The "want to work on my truck bug" Bit me again!

Went out and fired it up...ran like crap. lol Cause....two intake valves hanging way open all the time because I was to darn lazy(and tired) to readjust them after I put the head back on...never do it this way at home folks.... So...I thought, well...lets take both valve covers off and readjust them all while we're at it. Oh yeah...easy way to adjust solid lifter valves...do it WITH THE ENGINE RUNNING...BEATS the Heck outta doing one cylinder per time looking tdc ect...anyhow..that's another story..ya wanna know how to I'll do a video..Anyway! My big harrison rad blew a couple holes...so I jerked that out and put a spare one I had laying around in...no leaks now! (glitch in music) Except for a leaky old hard crusty rad hose. Ah well...cheap fix. So I'm happy...So..next couple things on the list...Carb kit, carb base gasket, new lower rad hose, better oil, and a new air cleaner. And I think we'll be ok! Video of her running tomorrow guys!
