Re: Cubber's Build Thread
The level of camaraderie on this build is awesome, inspiring really.
I picture these guys showing up all excited to work like they are striking gold with a big ass grin on their face, I only wish I had guys like that around me. |

Re: Cubber's Build Thread
It's about 6-7 inches, I'll get an exact measurement.

Re: Cubber's Build Thread
Matt, I was way off, it was 8 3/4. I know I just opened a can of worms to make an inline 6 joke, so have at it.

Re: Cubber's Build Thread
I think I could put the guages between each pair of holes, and cheat them towards the top to buy a little room. What do you think?

Re: Cubber's Build Thread
You could put the gauges in the middle and drill another hole on each side. What's the measurement of your gauges.

Re: Cubber's Build Thread
Your're right! I didn't even think about that, DUH. The guages are 2 1/4. I bet it would work great. What do you want for it?

Re: Cubber's Build Thread
So.... In order to have my truck driveable on the 19th, I need to get some things done. I thought I would post a to do list for this week, and y'all can chime in, and help me not to forget anything. I think I'll try to list most important first, and go down to things I'd like to have done, and finish with pipe dreams, lol.
1)Install accesories on engine 2)throttle and trans linkage to carb 3)fenders, core support, radiator 4)wire harness w/hei, and internally regulated alternator 5)battery in bed 6)finish fuel tank install 7)bolt headers on this is the bare minimum to be able to 8)start engine and set timing 9)finish plumbing air ride 10)wire air ride compressors which is the minimum needed to 11)get exhaust installed then I would like to 12)set the bed on (wouldn't mind doing before exhaust, so I'll have lights) 13)bolt seat in 14)rear shock relocators installed If, by some stroke of blessing I get all of that done, I'd like to 15)clean and paint new door panels 16)Install door panels, dash pad, seat cover 17)Install dash/filler radio 18)Install new tail lights 19) install new lenses on marker lights 20) install new mirrors 21) new tailgate chains I think this is a tall order, but I have 2 weeks. If I make it to this Friday, and dont have it ready for the exhaust shop, I'll prob take off Friday if there is any chance at will get me caught up. The exhaust should be done over the weekend, and I will have access to he truck while it is getting the exhaust. I could use the time to work on the interior parts, and have them ready for install when the exhaust is done. I think I have all the major parts on hand, the only ones I might need will be little connectors or bolts, just odds and ends. What does everybody think? Am I crazy??

Re: Cubber's Build Thread
Cubber thanks for sharing the Hedman header information in post #264 that is going to save me some time and money.
I think you can get that punch list done with time to spare, are you moving the main battery to the bed or is this an aux battery for the air ride? |

Re: Cubber's Build Thread
The headers fit great with lots of room. I'll post some pics of the exhaust after I get it.

You'll get that list down sooner than you think. You have almost 11 days.
