i hear that the chrome ones have less of a life span since the chrome keeps the heat in more than the natural cast ones

Re: What did you do to your truck today!

I got the itch to work on the truck today so I braved the cold and bolted down my new bed mounted tool box... I also did some repair to my heater switch plug... Next up on the to-do list is to install my Skip White HEI...

Re: What did you do to your truck today!

Polished some chrome and did a compression test on the engine. All came out at 149 almost exactly. But I am still blowing a little smoke out the passenger side pipe when I romp on it.
