Pictures of my now clean motor
Here are some pictures of my motor all cleaned up in my 68 c-10. It is a 307 and I just got done installing a eld. 600, eld. performer manifold, 93 s-10 serp. setup, points eliminator and a new timing chain. I will snap some more pictures of the finshed product as these are in process pictures.

Looks great! Where did you get the clear section for the radiator hose.

Re: Pictures of my now clean motor
You should add a bigger air cleaner so the engine can breath properly. Looks good

Re: Pictures of my now clean motor
Thanks for all of the kind remarks! I will get some finshed pictures tomorrow and post them up. I have been driving the truck a little and so far have been very happy how the engine came out. The M/T stands for Mickey Thompson
as for as I know. I wanted finned covers and my friend gave them to me for free!

Re: Pictures of my now clean motor
HEY 68c-10, IT LOOKS GREAT. GET YOU SOME ALUMINUM BRIGHTNER AND USE RUBBER GLOVES. TAKE A SPONGE AND DAB IT ON THE ALTERNATOR TO BRIGHTEN IT UP!

Re: Pictures of my now clean motor
Hey that's pretty cool, was it very difficult to put together and swap out?
What did that set up set you back?

Re: Pictures of my now clean motor
The cost broke down like so
Brakets, pullys, power steering pump, ac compressor and alt - $50.00 A/c delete or bypass pulley - $31.00 New power steering hose for a 1968 chevy - $16.00 Stainless 90 for the power steering hose to not hit the block - free Wiring kit to convert to the new alternator - $20.00 Water pump for 93 s-10 with a 4.3 - $17.00 Total $134.00 not including one idle pully I replaced do to me not recalling the cost. It was as easy as bolting on the brackets and connecting some plugs. I had to leave out one bolt on the pass side due to my head not having the bolt hole required. This is near the intake and there is a brace that goes from that side to a water pump bolt so I think it will be fine. The power steering was simple due to the fact that I switched fittings on the pump. The stock pump is double flare and the new one is o-ring so I simply unscrewed the fitting out of the old pump and put in the new one no problems. The replacement hose I got came with a brass adapter which would have put the hose into my block due to the pump being tucked in tighter. To get around that I had my freind bend up a short 90 with the correct fittings and hooked it up. I am very happy with it and love that I can crank the steering wheel and not hear the chirp of the belt! On to some more pictures! ![]() ![]()
