Re: 1965/73 Cheap Build Up

Haven't worked on it until yesterday. I filled the gas fill hole. But haven't taken any pictures. Soon I'll be getting back on it. Thanks for asking.

I feel for you guys. Plus I have a separated left shoulder, torn right Rote-rater Cuff, Arthritis in my hands, elbows, and knees. To top all that I also have Gout now. I can't even drink Beer anymore. (BUT I DO!) At least I lost almost 15lbs.

Re: 1965/73 Cheap Build Up

I think the BEER has something to do with the weight loss, plus been trying to be Gluten Free. I'm back to regular food and maintaining with a little Gluten and try not to have beer.

Re: 1965/73 Cheap Build Up

somehow hearing others talking about some of these healthproblems make me feel like i havent got it as bad as others have to live
age hands you things you realy dont want or where tinking of when you where young and invinceable and theres no choice in it
hope everyone will mysteriously heal overnight and live without pain , but have as little chance of having it come treu as for my lottery ticket to reap 30.000.000.000 euro's today
theres still hope though : i hope everyone has an awesome midnight and a great new year

Re: 1965/73 Cheap Build Up

my schedule keeps a straight line right around zero done for about 4 years sofar
dunno wat is the better line

i did bought an engine for the project though , its being delivered tomorrow (yahoo)

you guys are going to laugh :
its a jaguar AJ6 6 inline and its going intoo a 1978 chevrolet c10
planning on buying the jaguar 4L80E transmission too

its an odd ball engine but it wil make more power out of the box than a chevy inline 6 will make hotrodded to the hilt
besides the jag engine cost about a 10th of the price of a used chevy unit were i live

all aluminium block and head , steel crank . 3.6 liter . 24 valve . twin overhead cam . fuelinjection
the engine doesnt take as mush space as the pickup so the first part of the project will be to get it running on a teststand with a megasquirt 2 setup

Re: 1965/73 Cheap Build Up

yeahi know usually they pull these engines out in favor of a chevy small block
parts are way more expensive and theres little available for tuningparts
other than that the engines are REALY strong and solid
