Re: ** YOUNG FRANKENSTEIN ** The truck Chevrolet should have built.

Kinda crazy how you have to drill out a autometer adaptor to fit the autometer sender it was made for. lol I ran into that myself. Very impressed with your time management between work, family, church and the truck.

Wish I was closer, I would have helped you out on the axle... axles are my cake. I built an axle for maynardtruckin and tried as best as I could to let him know of any hold-ups.

That said, have you seen YOUR axle at the shop recently? Either they screwed something up BAD, or it is "misplaced" if they are not giving you the skinny on what's going on. What work were you having done to it?

The company working on it is doing it as a sideline for me. Their real business is running sprint car teams and they are traveling a lot now that the season has started. We had planned on having it done before racing broke loose, but I really don't need it until I am done with paint. It will be wrapped up by then, I went and saw it and it is headed to the powder coat man Monday. I'll get it back in a week, but don't have anywhere to put it except in the driveway.

Re: ** YOUNG FRANKENSTEIN ** The truck Chevrolet should have built.

busy with primary responsibilities is a good excuse! as for storing the axle, my front frame rails have been my axle storage, workbench and stand since the dana 60 semi float. Yours are too fancy to do that though.

Thanks, I'm swamped with work which is great- but no time to fit in family and work plus truck. Somebody has to lose, and since I didn't father any of you guys, there are no truck posts.

Re: ** YOUNG FRANKENSTEIN ** The truck Chevrolet should have built.

IIRC, I read an article that showed the truck manifold flowed almost as well as the Corvettes. I don't remember how they fared against the f-bodies. At this point I would go with which ever fit your application better.
Oh, and howdy from Malaysia (been here 2 weeks or so, another week to go.

Re: ** YOUNG FRANKENSTEIN ** The truck Chevrolet should have built.

Guys,
Make sure it is a happy Mother's Day by spending time with your mother or mother of your kids instead of working on your truck. I declare that everyone has the day off from working on their truck!!!
