Re: PO has me PO'd
Those are some great pics Jim!
Now it's time to get back to work.  But seriously, that is some awesome scenery.

Re: PO has me PO'd
Very nice. It's going to be really compact. I like it.

Re: PO has me PO'd
Pictures doesn't do it justice, but your right it is compact. Now I have to figure out the wiring for the elec. water pump. I just bought a polished alum. rad., can't wait to get it next week

Re: PO has me PO'd
They were repop from GMP about 10 years ago, they stopped making them again, found this set at a Chevy dealer in Texas
I think the 'GPW' project needs a set of March brackets

Re: PO has me PO'd
Here's some pics. of the PS side mounted up, after degreasing and paint stripping for a couple hours, no real issues to speak off, except the relocating bracket on the alternator. Seems like they counterbore the bracket, but want you not to use it, as the bracket has to be flipped over to get the correct orientation.Anyway, the plant manager is going to pull one off the production line in a couple weeks so I can counterbore it from the correct side, go figure...
Hey Red, you were rite, just ordered my rebuild kit for the saginaw pump(Advance Auto) Got to use my NOS PS cap/dipstick, thanks billsbowtie BTW, use anti-sieze(high nickel) whenever using steel fastners into alum., if it galls the threads you will never get it out!

Re: PO has me PO'd
Got some work dun on Jon's and my own. Got a sweet deal from Byrd on a polished alum. rad., and put a coat of paint on the PS pump. Looks like I will have to modify the brackets as the rad. is alittle wider than stock
Big J, got to breaking out the welder Got to hang lower B post so I could move on to fit up the cab corners, it looks a little rough, but that is just the beginning. The rocker covers all this area, so you won't see it. In a hurry and caused a run in the paint Sure is nice to work with shiny new metal, one spot of rust left and that is on the pass. lower B postI've been worried about the fit of the cab corners, since I have never dun them before, but I shouldn't have been. The contours fit perfect... Here's some pics

Re: PO has me PO'd
Looking good Jim...I like the engine.
The cab looks great too. As your agent, I'll let you know your cross country work schedule as soon as I get all the details ironed out.
