Re: My '74 build- "Clifford"

I had actually bought (and returned) two heaters that really didn't do the trick last week. I will be leaving the door to the house tonight, for sure.

See, superfly pimp, that's what your castoff TBI stuff could have looked like in your truck. I think you made the right choice. The rest of us will be playing catch up to you soon.

Thanks guys. No progress this weekend, I had my wisdom teeth pulled this morning. Just everything running through my head I would rather be out there doing.

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....

Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.

Re: My '74 build- "Clifford"

Cool to see...well, read...about the progress. Although the motor swap hasn't gone quite like you expected, it is still going. And that will be awesome soon enough.

Re: My '74 build- "Clifford"

Not a whole lot new to report. Just plugging away, trying to get a lot of little things accomplished. I figure a lot of liuttle things will become one big one eventually. I finished up my "frankenstein" tach cluster this evening, and added a couple of progress shots. Clifford has carpet!!!!
