Crash's 69 K10

[Crash_OK]

Update from last weekend.. Built a driver’s side battery box out of what I had on hand.. I am not super happy with it, but it is functionally, and does not look that bad. It did fit well, and is very stable.







I installed new radiator rubber support pieces and replaced the modified 2 core metal support pieces with 4 core ones.




After that I installed the new radiator support mounts.



Next I temporary wired up the engine harness and fuel pump.




Then I fired the engine up.. started instantly.. I used the Scan Gauge out of my Tundra to look for PCM codes and to monitor water temp, loop mode, and RPM.











Mounted the radiator





Sunday I stripped the old cab all the way down and moved it out of the shop … getting ready to bring the new cab in..







I had my lovely, wonderful, wife record the engine startup… Seems she could not keep the camera off of me.. Can’t say I blame her.. But she did get some pictures of it running. The audio is terrible on the cheap camera we were using the engine was much more quite than this video depicts.
