Re: project teacher

Well i've got some good and bad news, first the good. Got some pictures of the body work that Kyle is doing for me. Im super pumped and now he's waiting on some parts that I ordered from Scott's Hot Rods before he can final block and paint. Some other good news is the Eastwood flaring tool i bought works like a champ. It did the stainless lines with no problems.

Now the bad
After bending and flaring the stainless line, I removed the standard line and after trying to start the new lines I found out that I must have cross threaded the the bung fitting in the radiator for the transmission line. It turned out to be a stupid mistake but i think I found somebody that can fix it.

Re: project teacher

Hey Gary. Just get yourself an external cooler and run in along the frame rail. Cleans up the engine bay.
