Thanks!

They parked us as we came in and that's the way we ended up. Somebody has to help the fords on looks.

Thanks! It is disheartening to be classified with store bought trucks.

Thanks man! Glad your following along. I sold the 55 about a year ago.

Thanks Jeff, I am enjoying it. Still haven't done anything else to it.

Thanks, it's close to being done. Still have some things to do. Took a break from it. I started planning the AC and have a list of stuff to do to call it complete.

My wife and daughters put together a story book for me to have at shows. Thanks y'all very much.

Strodder · 08-01-2012, 09:37 AM

You should do a Scrap Book on the build.

It's pretty much a scrap book. It's a timeline of pics from start to finish. The book is still a work in progress just like the truck.

Thanks Heath.

A coworker had a 600 eldebrock that ran really good on a 350. I figured what the heck lets see what it does on mine. It might have been a little better as far as low end power, but not enough to matter. So, i will put the 750 back on and adjust on it. I'll recheck the timing and advance even tho I have checked it a dozen times.

This engine should just blow the tires off the truck. Very embarassing.

Specs: 383, TCI 350 with a 2400 stall, 3.42 posi.

Base timing 16*, mechanical 33* and vac adv all in at 2400 rpm and 52* total advance.

glad to see that you are making head ways on your power...Man that steering wheel is NICE! That will look perfect in your ride.

198plus · 08-15-2012, 10:32 PM

Alan I've come to a conclusion, after searching your thread for the last hour looking for a how to pic..........You need to put together a index for your build, I know you have plenty of time on your hands

since your truck is finished.
