Re: What did you do to your truck today?
Drove mine, the MH, 70 miles each way to a cruise in. The farthest I've taken it so far. I found out a few things. 1 the front gas tank leaks pretty good. 2 the radiator overflows and there isn't a recovery bottle, yet. 3 it handled the mtns around here pretty well.

Re: What did you do to your truck today?
Installed my newly ceramic coated headers on my 500 Cadillac engine in my 64 step. Fine tuned the timing and took it for a spin. Ready to go to the exhaust shop.

Re: What did you do to your truck today?
That looks so cool! I imagine a torque monster powerplant will be a lot of fun to drive.

Re: What did you do to your truck today?
Fought with my new custom length MSD plug wires before almost throwing the crimpers across the shop. I've never built wires before.
Tried a bit of dielectric grease, then WD40 to lube the boots. Still can't get them to slide back over the terminal. The YouTube looks so easy....what is the trick? Posted via Mobile Device

Re: What did you do to your truck today?
Very nice. Did you make your own lines or were they Pre-made? If Pre-made, where did you get them?

Re: What did you do to your truck today?
Did a little mock-up to try and decide what color to paint the intake manifold. Spent hours cleaning and wire brushing, then painting... Only to realize that I torqued down the heads without using non-hardening sealer! Going to fix that on Saturday and paint some more pieces.
The air cleaner will match the final blue color on the engine. Those are temp v/c the ones going on it are Mickey Thompsons and will have the flutes and the M/T in the same color blue. Posted via Mobile Device Posted via Mobile Device Posted via Mobile Device
