Re: Project two tone.

Well I haven't done anything with the truck lately except drive and make it useful around the place. I did haul a fair amount of brush today! Also tried to pull a stump out..was unsuccessful...not enough weight in the rear...but I gave it a good few jerks and chevys are rock solid. lol.

Re: Project two tone.

Thanks!!!


So I called Clifford Performance to price a performance rebuild kit for my 292. Got a list a parts that it comes with and total price is $899. WHEW! But the performance afterwards is pretty well worth it. Perrty neat when ya see a naturally aspirated 292 put down 330+ pound feet of torque! lol! So were gonna start saving fer a rebuild kit here.

Re: Project two tone.

I installed my new HEI today with much satisfaction! The popping is pretty much gone now, and the truck has never run smoother or accelerated quicker then before! New set of plugs and we should be good to roll! Pictures tomorrow and a video in a few weeks.

Re: Project two tone.

Small update. I loomed up the wiring a little for a cleaner look as well as heat guard. Also polished my air cleaner.
