I'm using a Walbro 255 pump and a 25 gallon suburban/k5 tank. Also using the corvette regulator/filter.

Re: 1960 'Burb Revival (First Post)

Here comes the picture update thread!!

The donor:


Cleaning up the engine, pulled the intake to give the knock sensors attention and re seal the top end.


I just had to test fit the headers!!


I'll give someone $20 to drink it.
Knock sensors have a problem with filling up with water on the truck engines.


Working down the stock wiring. Couldn't see myself paying $500 plus for and engine harness.


All cleaned up and dropped in.


Now to where it's at currently.


There's a lot missing in the middle there but I'd be here all day typing it out.
The list was huge when a buddy came over to help me get it back up to speed.
Here's what we've got left:

Run fuel lines
Connect wiring
Master cylinder
Cold air intake
Mount filler neck

FIRE IT UP!

The list is significantly shorter than it previously was. Stay tuned!

Re: 1960 'Burb Revival (First Post)

So this weekend was productive.
Got the heater core mounted and all the coolant lines hooked up.
Fuel tank is mounted and all of the fuel lines are plumbed.

Next up is looming all the wires. Maybe cranking next week.

I actually sold this ole girl early 2017 when I got orders to Hill AFB Utah. I may look at starting a build thread for my '90 Suburban cummins swap.
