Ordered some parts, and I think I'm getting a running 350 delivered to me for 500 bucks with an almost new edelbrock 1406. It's been too cold out to do anything!

Did a cam swap, put bigger jets in the carb, and got headers put on. What a night and day difference!!

Changed the fuel pump on my 88 TBI CCLB dually. Test drive had it running ok after it got hot(old pump would overheat and pressure would drop to less than 4psi).

Re: What did you get done 2/8/15 edition

Sanded bondo on the bed floor then DA'd the floor & inner bed sides in preparation for the Line-X shoot.

Also went out & pulled everything used for a vacuum brake system between the master cyl to the pedal pad. I got the pedal assembly all cleaned up & painted. Now I just have to get it installed, swap the leaking master cyl out, repair the paint damage on my vac booster can, & bleed the brakes again.

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....

Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.

Replaced the vacuum modulator and line on my transmission and am being taught a lesson in humility by slowly realizing I am going to have to let a professional fix my transmission instead of doing it myself in the garage.

Got all the interior swapped into the diesel short bed. Steam clean the carpets in the C10 and K30 too.

Re: What did you get done 2/8/15 edition

Door pins and bushings on my CUCV. I regret having put that off so long, it was an easy job with an engine hoist holding the doors for me. Few minor adjustments and the doors close great now.

I prepped my hd hubcaps for use with the manual hubs on my '85 K20. Hopefully new tires coming soon...
