Re: 1967 C10 Custom Big Window
Alright guys, chime in on this one. Cold or hot valve lash adjustment?? Also, there is a peice that goes in between the bed and the rear bumper, guessing it is a rock sheild?

Re: 1967 C10 Custom Big Window
Thank you firethorn! It is new from MAR-K in OKC. Made in USA. It was actually cheaper than the foreign made and the fitment was spot on! I did not have to "force" any of the trim to fit right. Packaging was incredible! Save money by purchasing it during their free shipping times which they run a few times a year.

Re: 1967 C10 Custom Big Window
I like to make a mess and do it hot while the engine is running, assuming you're asking about hydraulic lifters?
Solid lifters obviously engine off but hot. |

Re: 1967 C10 Custom Big Window
Yes sir. Same here, although I took an old valve cover and cut a 1 inch slot in it the length of the cover, so no mess at all. Any benefits to doing cold??

Re: 1967 C10 Custom Big Window
Hey Guys, I'm all good.....still a little sore but a clean bill of health from the doc. Here is the lowdown on what happened. I went to the Niftee 50ees Halloween carshow (which was huge) about 800+ cars. On my way to put the truck to bed there was a fatality accident on my usual route so I took another way. Unfortunately it was fate about to happen.
As I was sitting at a redlight about a mile from my storage i heard sirens, it was the police chasing a parolee from Indiana, at over 100 mph. As the (dumba$$) got close to the intersection he slammed on his brakes and slid over 75 feet and tried to make a right hand turn, he overshot the turn and hit me head on. A Sheriff was right on his tail and got it on video. The police found a bunch of cocaine in his car too so needless to say he will be in the pokey for a while......hopefully getting poked. ![]() ![]()
