Re: Project...praise the lowered
Hey (joey) i scanned through your thread from start to finish, awesome job and congrats on such a sweet truck!
I had one big question (sorry if you answered it already and i just missed it) i wanted to do the hood on my 68 the same way but i was just wondering does it make it hard to get to anything? Like if you needed to work on the motor or somethin? Or if you had to take out the radiatior or somethin? I guess if it was that big of a deal you could just pull the front end off? Lol thanks!

Re: Project...praise the lowered
thanks guys.its been a while since i have checked in here.as for the hood im not sure how many man hours it took but it felt like forever.the cutting/welding part was easy but getting everything blocked straight took a while.just because it was a little flimsy in some parts.working on the motor is super easy.i still have tons of room.not sure about a stock rad but because i swapped mine with the newer sierra one and made my own brackets in the old rad support,i have no problem getting at it.

Re: Project...praise the lowered
so im still driving the truck a couple times a week and its holding up great.before my summer got really busy i started my nitrous install.all i have left is the relay and switches and its ready to go.i should have it done real soon.also in the near future im going to order a diablosport intune programer. then i should be good to go with more motor mods.
and last but not least im a proud daddy.my boy was born aug 3.he and momma are doing very well.keeps me busy and away from the truck but i love every min of it. ![]() ![]() ![]()

Re: Project...praise the lowered
wow its been a while.a long over due thanks for the complements i had not respond to.since my last post i got my diablo tuner.made a difference with the tune they had loaded already but now the fun starts.in sept my rack and pinion line was leaking and since it was so close to the cold months in the great white north i parked my truck for the winter.i was also to start tearing into it again.as it sits right now the top end is tore off the engine and i started some tweaking.i did a port job on the throttle body and when i get my bits i will port the heads.soon after i hope to mill a little off them to bump the compression up.i will keep updating with these mods and others i have planned as i go.as sick as it sounds i think i enjoy building as much as i do driving.

Re: Project...praise the lowered
The Hotrod Baby Stroller is way too cool. And, it will be, as you say, a gift that keeps on giving. I can imagine this stroller, generations from now, they'll be talking about the "way cool stroller that Grandpa built"!! LOL
