Re: project INCREDIBLE HULK 6.2L with 6L80E
Don, when you make your engine harness and when you are shortening your wires do you solder and heat shrink them. Do you solder the O2 sensor wires. I was told today that you should not solder O2 sensor wires for some reason. If that is the case I am going to have to redo mine. Just wanted your opinon on that.
Thanx. |

Re: project INCREDIBLE HULK 6.2L with 6L80E
68SS- What are you using to crimp the pins? Is there a special tool?

Re: project INCREDIBLE HULK 6.2L with 6L80E
I knew that you shouldn't solder the wires from the connector to the sensor, but the harness wiring?? I hope it will be fine it is already done and in the truck- wish me luck.. I probably should have repinned it, but figured this was easier and cheaper..
Thanx |

Re: project INCREDIBLE HULK 6.2L with 6L80E
got the rear end narrowed to 50", also centered the pinion....i didnt narrow it as planned, because the jig i planned on useing wasnt available. so i farmed it out. also ordered some universal axle perches for these trailing arm trucks....i had to torch out the half circles to fit around the axle tubes... got the rear end centered up, set the pinion angle,then welded the perches on...

Re: project INCREDIBLE HULK 6.2L with 6L80E
That is all fantastic work especially the dash
I have read every page twice and you don't mention what or where the evaporator came from. Is it a Gen 4 mag? I called Vintage air and the sales guy would not confirm that a Gen 4 would fit my 71. I am in the mist of shaving my firewall and if I need to fab any brackets and weld , now would be a good time to have it. Your info would save me from buying a mock up unit. Richard

Re: project INCREDIBLE HULK 6.2L with 6L80E
sorry, yes it is a VA gen 4 magnum.....i use the VA condensor/ dryer that is SPECIFIC to the 67-72 chevy trucks, and then i make my own A/C and heat lines.....
any more ?s just ask, ill be glad to help if i can... thanks for the complaments you will need to fab some kinda mounting bracket, and weld it on.....they make it real easy to adapt their mounting bracket to something you can fab up and weld....its not bad at all.

I never used the "ice storm" excuse.... maybe next time!? Again, thanks for the patience on the parts, it's nice to see them all fit up! Everything looks great!
