Thank you! Good luck on your project(s).


Well I've mainly been driving the truck and doing a few minor "upgrades" and fixes. I finally got my dual tanks working correctly, it turn out to be someone crossed connectors underneath the cab on the drivers side. The wiring was very similar in color and they simple crossed them. I switched them around and both tanks work and measure as they should. In the process of the troubleshooting, I did upgrade crossover valve to a 65 psi Pollack unit (for safely and potential future upgrades).

Here's a great thread on dual tank operation and troubleshooting started by HATZIE: http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...d.php?t=754061


While reading the site, I found a really nice headlight buzzer upgrade. I purchased the module and just plugged it in. Now if I leave the headlights on, I will get a warning indication, .

I also picked up a nice little FM blue tooth adapter that plugs into the cigarette lighter. It works well with the factory digital AM/FM cassette player, .

And finally, I put back on the OEM front bumper guards, here's a couple pictures.

The only other modification that I would like to do is install a tach. I'm researching that now and want to do something that is period correct. More to follow!!
