They are made by Billet Specialties, but have been discontinued. They must have lost the license from GM to reproduce the old script logo.

Re: My daily driven stepper

I was wondering about your pulley set up in the motor. Did you run a single crank pulley and the add on for power steering? Making two with a space in between? I am assuming a swp. I am trying to get the parts together for this and was wondering if yo had any of the part #s.
Thanks
Tim

Nope no part #'s. I pulled them off my 72 donor truck, along with all my brackets. Yes it is a 2-piece pulley setup. The ps pulley is an extra pulley that slips into slots on the crank pulley, then they bolt to the balancer together.

Re: My daily driven stepper

68Stepbed,
I thought ALL vehicles in East & Middle Tennessee and HALF in West Tennessee had orange "T" or "Vols" tags on them! By looking at your pics, I see I am wrong. Hmmm, must just be my family up there in Maryville! Looks like that fine young man in your avatar bleeds orange. (lol)

That is one sweet looking ride!

Well, not ALL of them, but about 90% of em do. I try to keep my vehicles clean and simple, no bumper stickers, vinyl stickers, dealer decals, or gaudy front bumper plates. No pun intended.

It's funny you mention my son wearing orange. My wife hates orange on him. We've never bought the first orange clothes, his granparents keep him stocked with em. Drives my wife nuts. I think it's rather funny myself. I used to get teased alot when I lived in Arkansas about a big orange T in the back window of the truck I drove.
