nice work

DRTYRAT30 · 10-21-2010, 06:50 PM

Not much going on, ive been sick for a few days, Should get going on it soon.

The air cleaner w/ washable filter was from noahperformance on ebay.
And the valve covers were from abad71camaro. Both are nice quality.

Thanks, Jesse

They are Flowtech i belive for 88-90's chevy trucks. I have seen them in summits catalog. The frame had to be notched a little to fit, but not much. here is the link

creep · 10-27-2010, 04:02 PM

Very cool! Now hurry up so we can see it finished!

DRTYRAT30 · 11-11-2010, 12:04 AM

Thanks man. I have been working on running all my hardlines for fuel and trans cooler. Installed a new carpet and trying to figure out what i want to do for a seat, i have the OG seat thats in great shape just would need a recover and i have a 1992 chevy bench that would need a recover also. I think the stock bench would look cool and would be cheeper to recover.

I have been working with Nate at Porterbuilt on getting all the proper measurments for him to input into his super computer for me to order the correct size two piece driveshaft from a local shop.

I should start hanging sheet metal soon.......

Oh and i picked up my air ride set-up from Jason at AVS

Viair comp.
Accuair VU4
5gl tank ect...

PipsC10 · 10-26-2010, 11:10 AM

sometimes its really hard to gather ideas in your head and have them all blend together nicely when you actually start putting things together. Your build is a perfect example so far of things coming together that work well both cosmetically and mechanically. Awesome job

c10Mang · 10-26-2010, 03:07 PM

Engine looks sick!!! Can wait for you to get this thing on the road. Want to know how that swaybar works.. I think I need one!

**Clyde65** · 10-26-2010, 03:50 PM

Dirty,

where are you located in N. Cali? My daughter lives near Arcata

DRTYRAT30 · 10-27-2010, 12:48 AM

Thanks all, i am for sure having fun with this one. Oh and i'm in Lodi

DRTYRAT30 · 11-24-2010, 11:54 PM

Thanks man, They are 225/75-15's im going to be taking these off soon to install some smoothies with bullet caps and skinny whites.

**Dieselwrencher** · 11-30-2010, 07:51 PM

Very nice! I like the heavier duty carrier bearing as well. Maybe some of you guys can make a floating style. I have seen these in a much larger scale on some odd ball heavy semis. They have springs on the top and on the bottom to allow the carrier bearing to move if ever needed.

chevyman95 · 12-02-2010, 04:12 PM

How do you like that rustoleum professional?

Very nice build

So far so good. It sprays nice, lays out like auto paint. I havent had it on the road yet so well see, but it seems tough.

Thanks

chevyman95 · 12-02-2010, 11:25 PM

cool just wondering, I painted a car with the rattle can non professional flat black and swore I would never use them again, It was very inconsistent and a pain to make look right then if you brushed up against it it would leave marks.

DRTYRAT30 · 12-04-2010, 01:30 AM

I got the front end on and the motor dialed in, had to do some trimming on the fenders, still need to fab some round bar along the edge's. I started getting the bed ready also. Still need to finnish the plumbing on my air lines. here's some pics.

65Pickup · 12-04-2010, 01:59 AM

Wow looks great, nice update. The grille looks clean. Keep it up.
