The wife drove it to Lynchburg to the whiskey runners cruise in today for it's first cruise. She was leadin a 5 old car/truck cruise up the highway and didn't even know it.

She was tickled to just drive it.

oldblue1968chevy · 10-01-2011, 11:58 PM

SO what else is in the plans besides swapping the center link bar around

What else gonna be green?

Ps,Ill see about gettnig your flashing light this week sometime I bet he has a half dozen of what your looking for. Tons of old spotlights horns sirens you name it!

I'm going to take the unit out after church this afternoon to see whats up.

Hubscrub · 10-09-2011, 04:53 PM

Who knows, run it to the rear of the carb and clean the bay up a bit

Hubscrub · 10-10-2011, 08:10 PM

I switched it and didn't see a difference i will try again there is still some adjusting to do to get all the bugs out

may try it on one that runs good already.

Hubscrub · 10-10-2011, 08:17 PM

Took my old OCHRE tailgate and put it on the 67 for the time being its got a pretty good bow in it but no rust holes (that i know of) the po gave my an new aftermarket one with the truck i'll use later probably.

oldblue1968chevy · 10-10-2011, 09:37 PM

Im really learning on the timing

total/mechanical/initial/vacumn advance

Ported is for emissions crap lol

What're you running for timing

oldblue1968chevy · 10-10-2011, 09:38 PM

We had the orchee talk with someone with a masters, they didnt know either LOL

why not put that gate on your orchee truck

heeroyue2002 · 10-10-2011, 10:27 PM

out some 2x4's around your tailgate and run it over to take out the bow
