Re: High School Project Build
No problem! Hopefully everything was there I never even unwrapped it when I bought it. Glad to help out a good cause. Its nice to see younger people who are actually interested in cars, especially classics.

Re: High School Project Build
nice teaching a class students actually want to learn. at my high school we had to beg the admin to have a class like this, in 1973 they said ok and we had a front engine dragster donated. so much fun building that rail. took it to irwindale raceway to race and the school flipped out you can build a race car but you cant race it. ended up selling it, but that experience sat the foundation for a life long relationship with custom cars.

Re: High School Project Build
Friday I went by No Limit Engineering and Rob hooked us up with one of their rear Trac bars and shock relocators. He is working on a new tranission crossmember and said it would be ready in two weeks. Thanks Rob

Re: High School Project Build

Re: High School Project Build
Really love that you are doing this with the students! So many school systems don't have any technical programs. And the problem solving skills learned on their truck build are transferable to any educational or career path they follow. Good for you and good luck!
Firewall looks good. |

Re: High School Project Build
Great job passing on these skills to the next generation. When I was in school "many years ago" we put a 350 in a Chevy Luv. That was a blast.

Re: High School Project Build
No progress on truck - we have been out of school for almost 2 weeks for snow. Hopefully we will be back by next week.

Re: High School Project Build
I was thinking about your project and how you all were doing with it. Will you have to go two weeks longer this spring before summer break?

Re: High School Project Build
We go an extra 30min. everyday throughout the year and that builds us 13 days that we can miss before we have to make up any days. We also have a week of spring break that we can also use up if we have to.

Re: High School Project Build
We are using a truck pump, and they are made different there and there is not a lot of material there to tap into. Plus the fact that it is a big sensor and just doesn't hide good out there in front.

Re: High School Project Build
yeah i forgot how akward the truck water pump is factory. ive changed my truck pump to accept a -16AN upper fitting and -20AN lower fitting. but i do like the fact that you are hiding the senor (in a sense)
