Re: Project 68 k10 LWB..aka "The Hulk"
Getting a little closer. I got the driver side exhaust pipe routed under the transfer case. I just need to fabricate the hangers and get the tailpipe out the back.

Re: Project 68 k10 LWB..aka "The Hulk"
That is some nice tig welding. When are having classes so I can improve my skills. What is the black rod that goes from the back of the engine to the T-case.

Re: Project 68 k10 LWB..aka "The Hulk"
I don't think thats a rod... I believe it is a 3" electric exhaust cutout!
![]() This continues to be epic. CT Edit: I now see the black rod on the passenger side from t case to engine area along the frame rail... No idea. Last edited by nsulacountry; 08-24-2015 at 10:03 AM. Reason: Now I see it |

Re: Project 68 k10 LWB..aka "The Hulk"
Hey guys. The TIG welding problem I have it the stop and starts. I can't get the weld to look uniform. I am sure I just need more practice. One thing with TIG welding is patience. Which I have little. While I am welding I keep saying to myself, "Slow down, take your time". Just about the time I get it looking good I will be done with the welding on the exhaust. Lol.
As for the black rod. On the newer model t-cases (the aluminum ones) np208-263 I think have a rod that attached to the long side of the t-case to one of the bell housing bolts. At least on the square bodies.

Re: Project 68 k10 LWB..aka "The Hulk"
Hey guys I was able to finish up on the exhaust yesterday well up to the muffler. I finished up the hangers and put all the gaskets on the headers and collectors. I don't want to do the tailpipe yet because I am not sure where I want it. I also had my son finish up the rear diff cover. I just need to straighten out the brake lines they look to high.

I got a chance to spend a couple hours today. Just worked on the rotisserie Brackets for the cab. I used 1 of the 2-1/2" x 3" square tube brackets instead of the 2-1/2" x 2". That's what happens when your away from the shop for a little bit. So I need to hit up the metal shop. Sorry didn't get any pictures But I will soon. I am enjoying your guys updates, keeps me in the mood to get on my project as soon as football is over.

I found that music helps you can get it to flow with the beat of it (help me out anyway) if it's stainless back purging it with argon helps the pudding wet and flow better

Re: Project 68 k10 LWB..aka "The Hulk"
Was able to get to the shop for a few hours this weekend. I was able to lower my gas tank filler tube on the fuel tank.

Re: Project 68 k10 LWB..aka "The Hulk"
I also finished up the rotisserie. Now I just need to put the cab on it so I can replace the rocker and get it to the paint and body guy.

Re: Project 68 k10 LWB..aka "The Hulk"
I have a question. After I finished my exhaust I noticed it was close to hard Fuel line. So I wrapped the exhaust with DEI Wrap and sleeved the fuel line with DEI sleeving. I will post another picture.

Re: Project 68 k10 LWB..aka "The Hulk"
Do you think it will be ok? Or should I Lower the exhaust? Problem is I will have to add a small price to the down pipe from the collector. Currently it is a good inch clearance between the wrapped exhaust pipe and the sleeved fuel line.

Re: Project 68 k10 LWB..aka "The Hulk"
Sorry no help for you on the exhaust fuel line issue. But my guess is since you already hashed out a remedy and you have doubt might ought to go with your gut
Which tank did you go with? If I recall you opted for the square body tank. 25 31gal? More pics of the mount please! Filler going into the side of the bed? I came across these http://www.hotrodhardware.com/index....od/prd2266.htm |

I used the 31 gallon 87-91 FI tank and Swapped in a hi pressure Walbro pump. I will get you a picture of the mount. But I used the cross member from the stock '91 suburban frame I bought. It has the correct curvature for the tank at the front. ( I even have the stock tank skid plate) I used the stock cross member at the rear and drilled 2 holes in it for the stock tank straps. For a gas door I picked up one from a Sonoma blazer and plan to install it. But what you found would work also. I just got mine and the metal piping for 25$ I found the mock up picture of the crossmember from the '91.

Re: Project 68 k10 LWB..aka "The Hulk"
If it helps my truck has the fuel line run inside the frame rail right where the stock one was and my exhaust pipe is about 3" from it where its passing between the rail and the T case. even before the rear tank with the stock line in the same place i had exhaust pipe running in the same place for over 20 years. So not just crossing over it but beside it for a couple/three ft.
I think it should be fine heat wise with the wrap, my only concern might be if it vibrates too much or how much it moves when revving the engine.

Re: Project 68 k10 LWB..aka "The Hulk"
Any fitment issues running that tank you forsee with mounting a hitch or maybe even an ECE hidden hitch?

I worked on the truck this weekend, well the cab I mean. Got the cab on the rotisserie. It worked pretty well. I started working on the rocker. I found that the previous owner had some work done to the cab. Well of course it was crappy work. So here I go started repairing the floor section and the kick panel area. I removed the rocker panel and found things not to what I feel they should be so here I go. Going to remove both rockers and probably replace both cab corners. I took a wire wheel to the cab corner and after I went though 3/8" of Bondo I figured going to have to replace the cab corners. I took pictures but phone is dead. I will try and upload tomorrow.
