Re: 1964 gmc 1000

The truck runs like a champ happy with how everything turned out finely back to the hood!



Got a new hood hinge on the truck and the hood is not latched because the new heater box intake needs a bit of a trimming, redoing the vents on the hood a little to removing the blinkers from there location and adding some stuff to go along with the air box.



More pictures soon will be working on it all weekend.

Re: 1964 gmc 1000

drove the truck some today and the intake really seems to be helping the most in 4th gear the 40-70 mile an hour range has really picked up in response when you step on the peddle.

Re: 1964 gmc 1000

Took the freeway home from work the fan defiantly puts a drag on the motor in the 0-50 mph range but i noticed today at top speeds the motor favors having the fan seems more stable and a bit quieter.

It has also dropped the rpm's to 500 from 650 need to work on that!
