70 Big Block GMC progress - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

**RenoKeene** · 12-07-2011, 10:44 AM

Made some progress on my Big Block project. Under hood A/C stuff is rebuilt and back on, pullys and belts are on and set, new dizzys in, refinished air cleaner's done and the new fuel pumps ready to go on. New 205/70/15's on rare 15x7 ralleys dropped the nose another 2". Picked up the core support from the paint shop this morning so I can put the front clip back on.
I'm gettin there...

I love seeing those big valve covers when you open the hood of these trucks. Super progress. That's the first Florida Edition badge I've ever seen. Didn't know there was such a thing.
