Re: Daverods project 66
So far it seems to be a good book "How to rebuild your Small -Block Chevy" by David Vizard.

Re: Daverods project 66
Put my tilt column in. Had to move my dash apart alittle bit more to get it centered on the column. Not really sure what to do about the clutch petal? I'm going with a auto. transmission Should I just cut it off? Need to get a steering wheel puller so I can put my old wheel on my tilt column. Going to try and get the dash welded back together and mounted tomorrow.

Re: Daverods project 66

Re: Daverods project 66
If your learning metal work or know all there is to know.
Here are two sites to check out. http://www.allmetalshaping.com This first one was started by my good fried Johnny Arial. The second Metalmeet.com was started by a man named Wray Schlinn. (might have spelled the last name wrong for Wray. They are both really GOOD sources for learning to do it CORRECTLY. lots of wheel, metal finishing and hand work you all and myself could learn. I know it is easy to just throw bondo (mud ) on sheetmetal, but hey if your interested in doing correctly check these two sites out. BILL |

Re: Daverods project 66
Got my crank put in my engine. Everything went ok. Had one question. On the rear neo seal the directions on the package said to rotate it about 3/8 of an inch so it did'nt line up with the block/cap halfs. In the book I had it did'nt say to do this. They gave me a little shoe horn thing to use with the neo seal. I could'nt figure out what they wanted me to do with it. I just put the seal in the way the book said now I'm second guessing myself?
