Re: Slosh Tubz new company project "Square Peg" frame laying 1987 GMC Jimmy
The Blazer looks killer Mike and congrats on making show! I keep spotting little details like the Tubz logo in the headliner. You gotta put up a photo spread for us and tell the story of your scramble before SEMA!

Re: Slosh Tubz new company project "Square Peg" frame laying 1987 GMC Jimmy
Have you put any miles on the truck yet? I ask because I'm curious about the heat build up from the coil packs under your faux valve covers. I know it was brought up previously but now that the truck is done I was just curious if you had noticed anything related to that.
My brother is running some of the later style coils that have heat sinks on the top of each of them but he did some testing with one of my sets which don't and he noticed mine without sinks were noticeably warmer than his set with sinks. Considering I've got two straight six covers waiting for this same mod, I was hoping I didn't need to buy the heat sink style coils on top of it! -Panelrodder BTW, I saw the truck at SEMA as well and it was probably my favorite of the show because I had followed the build here on the forum!

Maybe you already posted them but I didn't see. Also where did you get that dash? Really enjoyed seeing it in person at sema!
