ya im gonna pressure wash it and its gettin new intake manifold carb and different valve covers with new gaskets

oldblue1968chevy · 04-08-2010, 05:14 PM

id do all new gaskets you dont want it to start leaking lol gonna clean up the engine bay too? what'd ya have before?

72chevyfleet · 04-11-2010, 08:27 PM

well basically the truck is stock again i have some pictures for you guys but the motor i put in it was an 86 350 with all the smog **** so i gotta get a new carb because its screwed and the intake manifold is smogged so im taking it off but i got a problem or im just blind but the clutch off my 72 mounts to the block if im correct? but i cant see a way to bolt it to this block heres these pics from saturday half ton haulin a three quarter ton and the last picture i think looks sick

72chevyfleet · 04-13-2010, 01:26 AM

alright well i got my passenger side header in after school and put my heavy duty 2 ton starter in i was surprised it didnt hit against the header and tomorrow my goal is to get some more stuff hooked up like the radiator, battery and other stuff that is just dangling that has to go somewhere. my clutch i got bolted to the block all before the sun went down so hopefully tomorrow i will have power to the truck hehe but probably by this weekend it might be running and might get you a video i dont think it will be moving because it has no exhaust it will get some thrush mufflers and some 2.25 or 2.5 inch tubing and dump right before the axle.Also if anyone has a front body mount bolt that goes through the radiator support that they possibly want to get rid of at no cost or any other parts that they would care to give away

i do need some thanks lol. here is a picture of the front end back together these the two wires go to the starter right? and whats this outlet supposed to go to?

oldblue1968chevy · 04-13-2010, 06:13 PM

nocleaned up job first lol?

looks good better wrap it up and get it back driving again.

72chevyfleet · 04-14-2010, 12:04 AM

gonna be awhile

72chevyfleet · 04-23-2010, 11:40 AM

alright heres the lowdown it runs

but im not getting fuel to the carb its got an 86 smog fuel pump so its gotta let out vapor i put my finger over it and it spewed gas from the carb line but i put a hose on it and capped it off and then i replaced the fuel line from the pump to the frame where it connects and still not getting anything any ideas and the fuel pump works its sucking just fine it was super loud we had to go get some mufflers to put on the headers just to keep it a little quieter 2.5in flowtech raptors but im glad it runs you guys got any ideas on what i should do?

72chevyfleet · 04-24-2010, 07:52 PM

it runs now on its own will sucking gas through the tank i need a new sending unit the filter thing at the bottom was done for and i cant get just the bag so we ripped the bag off and cleaned it out and put it back in the tank and it runs its loud as can be with mufflers

i dont know how to post a video so heres the link

YouTube- 72 chevy
