Re: Tri-Pro's "Project GPW"
just the numbers scribed into the metal...The BOM for the kit (22053) doesn't list individual parts numbers that I can see

Re: Tri-Pro's "Project GPW"
That works, but I don't think you will be able to read them with it being assembled, I'll run the kit number, or ask CStech line at March

Re: Tri-Pro's "Project GPW"
Over 6 because I had to buy another alternator and power steering pump to keep the serpentine system in tact. I also swapped water pumps and ordered the nose cover for the power steering pump which doesn't come with the kit.

Re: Tri-Pro's "Project GPW"
Your truck build looks awesome!!!!
Your pulley set up is the same one I used on my motor, there is no way that powdercoating or paint will ever look as good...I have not put my power steering pulley cover on yet , I had a hard time with the pump fitting on there had to do some grinding.

Re: Tri-Pro's "Project GPW"
Nice build you have there. So whats the scoop on the 67-68 cowl hoods. Production was stoped for a period and the one I purchased was not the best for fit. I was wondering if yours have a positve fit. You should produce a cowl hood like the one in the Carter Hickman rendering. That is sleeker with the longer sloping cowl. I have my debit card waiting as soon as you have the first one available. Good luck with your build. Just to say I didn't know about you when I purchased my hood or I surely would have spent my dime with you instead. Look forward to doing business with you in the future. If you would like I will send you a free window tint kit for your truck if you decide to tint the glass. Scott A Speedy Tint Inc. www.aspeedytint.com

As I have gotten older my patience runs thin alot quicker than it did when I was young. I left my manifold the way it came I thought about powder coating it but I decided against it.

Re: Tri-Pro's "Project GPW"
Yes, I did change the pump. One good thing about GM is that the bolt patterns are different on the two different pumps (the pulley pattern) so as hard as I tried I couldn't get the pulley onto the original one- then the light came on and I swapped pumps.
