Thanks.

Just purchases some stainless steel tubing to begin bending and installing the brake lines. I will post progress pics as soon as I can. Currently out of town.

Check the parts board for the high hump. Your truck is looking great.

Re: Project "la sancha" 69 SWB

Its been a while since I've posted anything. Haven't had a lot of free time to work on the truck, been busy with the family and super busy at work. Here are some pics of a little patch work on the floor of the cab and started shaving the fire wall. By the way, I'm still looking for a no hole trans high hump if anyone still has one.

Yeah! That's exactly what I needed, thank you! I'm running the same set up with the mild dm but my sway bar links are shorter and the sway bar hits the tie rods. Thanks again!

Re: Project "la sancha" 69 SWB

I picked up a couple of parts from Summit: Lunati Camshaft & Lifter Kit, Valve Train Components, Comp Timing set, crankshaft damper, & a melling oil pump.
(My three year old wanted his ride in the picture)

Not sure where to go from here. I originally wanted to keep the stock cylinder heads and intake manifold to save some $$$, but I am now thinking about purchasing a set of aluminum cylinder heads and a new intake manifold. Not sure which heads or manifold I'm going to go with yet. Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks.
