Re: Roushinator's 72 C10 Stepside Restore/Build

I got my PB radiator core mounts and front cross member coated and installed this afternoon....







Oh notice that took my steering off.... Decided to go rack and pinion. And you can see my new sheet metal motor mount pedestals

Re: Roushinator's 72 C10 Stepside Restore/Build

Almost ready to go. I determined that i will need to use the Holley LS brackets for the Alternator and AC compressor. I got to remove the oil cooler to fit the motor mounts. I should not need it according to Rob and if i want later on i can install an external one. I have a plug and some tools coming in to remove and install. I had to buy an 17mm allen wrench socket and a 34mm socket. I can then install the motor mounts and then Cadillac oil pan. The engine should go in soon! Oh and my bracket finally came in for my rack and pinion.

Re: Roushinator's 72 C10 Stepside Restore/Build

Got some work done and created some more... LOL



Installed the No Limit Rack and Pinion. But thanks to my Louisiana public school education i misread the instructions and drilled the hole for the steering shaft in the wrong spot. I need to get that welded up and i will re-drill it in the right spot this time. My motor mounts need to be in the back two holes not the front two. That threw off my measurements. LOL...
