Bob, maybe you can just wire mine all up for me? I hate electrical. We can work that in to our trade of services.

Re: Glock's new project: "Fred"
Saw this on LS1tech.com, it's in a 69, very similar to the 73-87 in this area. Make me a little nervous. Am I wrong?

Re: Glock's new project: "Fred"
^^^ That's a pretty large chunk of frame missing. Especially since it has gotten so close to the curve (actually looks to be beyond the start of the curve) which would significantly reduce the structural integrity of the frame. I wouldn't do it without some additional bracing in that area. Just my .02

Re: Glock's new project: "Fred"
My biggest concern with this area is the proximity to the idler arm. It bolts to the frame about 2" away.

Re: Glock's new project: "Fred"
Oh I agree, but the way the fittings shoot up outta there it would be difficult to do that correctly. That is, using the 06's hoses and splice them into the 85's hoses. I wonder though about reinforcing that area by welding some plate around the notch, something heavier than the frame like 3/16" or 1/4" plate on top and on the side?
Now, buying blocks and using 90° threaded fittings would probably allow that area to be raised, boxed on one side, and gusseted.

Re: Glock's new project: "Fred"
I have no doubt you will figure it out while making it even better than it was before. Hhhmmm, remembering a TV show from my youth...could this be the 6 million dollar truck

Re: Glock's new project: "Fred"
Gentlemen, we can rebuild him. We have the technology. We have the capability to build the world's first bionic truck. Fred will be that truck. We can make him better than he was before. Better, stronger, faster.

Re: Glock's new project: "Fred"
On your a/c issue, what if you used a compressor from an earlier vortec 5.7 like whats in the 96 model trucks and used the adapter fittings from this site...
http://www.nostalgicairparts.com/air...n-left-332.php then had some hoses made to work? The compressor will bolt right up and the belt will work on it also.

Re: Glock's new project: "Fred"
I haven't gotten as far as putting the adapters on yet, but the motor is in and the compressor is on. I also have the belt on the compressor right now so I could see if that was atleast right. When I get home I'll try and snap a pic and repost it so you can see what you think.
