I like the 6-banger...really nice and clean. Looks like it runs pretty darn good. Is that header a split-type, with the 12" glass packs like the "bombas" or what ??

"rrrrrrrnnnnnnnnn...bbbaarararraaaraaaarr !!!!"

A buddy of mine back in the day had a raced-out 6 cylinder. Is was like a 250 with special pop-ups and bored to like a 302 !!! Tricked out head and I think, if I remember correctly a dual 4-brl manifold. I was a really young...don't rememer, but I think it was a Nova or some s#it.

I like your truck....

Thanks , yea its a split manifold, no glass packs yet. The intake is set up for a 4bbl , but I havent found an afforadable one (390cfm) , so it has a 2bbl on it. It runs nice.
Yes Gulfcoast I did the seat my self, it came from www.automotiveinteriors.com It still needs to be tighted up some.
man I missed the car show , how was it ? I live off of Story Rd. and that place was crazy, so I decided just to stay home.

Looks great! Love the motor. I'm putting a 250 in the 65 SWB that I'm building. I want to do the things you did..Header, 4-bbl intake, chrome. I found a set of header this weekend at a swap meet. Now I just need the intake and chrome. Where did you get yours? Are you running a points distributor or HEI? Nice job!

I have a seat like your BEFORE seat. Your newly covered seat looks great and so does the rest of the truck.

[GREASEMONKEY72]

nice truck dude, my next truck is goin to be a 60-66 and preferably a 60-61, and i love seeing the i6 engines still going and plan on having one in my next truck and hopefully i can get it atlest as nice as youve got yours, keep it up and i look forward to seeing more

[slepysal]

Thanks guys. I still have a ways to go, I have the power steering kit, tilt steering colunm , but have yet to install them. I also plan on re doing the exhaust and getting her painted. This is a low budget project, so chances are I'll have my local Earl Shiebs do it, don't laugh they dodecent work
