Re: '67 Short Step #2

Great to hear you had no problems! Was kinda worried with a fresh engine but I know the machinists' work, so I was sure everything would go well.

We used IMCO turbo mufflers. They don't sound right and I'm having them put different ones on. I want my truck loud though.

Thanks, I'll let you know next time I'm in Kansas City with the truck. I was starting to wonder what happened to your project.

Re: '67 Short Step #2

Truck looks great man. What size cam did you use in the Inline 6? Are those the stock size pistons or did you have larger pistons put in it. Where did you get the intake and headers from, and am I seeing things or did I see what looked like woodgrain on the steering wheel in one of those pics? Again, nice truck.

Cam is Duration 194* I/204* E
Lift .464" I/.494" E
Lobe centerline 110*
Engine is bored .040
Intake and headers are Offenhauser and Clifford both from Ebay. No woodgrain just the stock wheel with a crazy paint scheme on it.
Thanks.

A few pics we took in a couple of neat spots. Trying to get more but Kyles' truck broke after doing a decent burnout of which I screwed up and didn't record.

Re: '67 Short Step #2

Looks like you got the beggining of the granny gear burnout attempt. Let this be a lesson to everyone building a new motor. Don't put off replacing the balancer! They break! I was doing a donut and the thing luckily flew out the bottom of the truck and went FLYING down the street. It probably would have gone a quarter mile but it stopped at someone's house and he brought it down to us.
