Re: My 52 GMC Build
Sure I can I have only unbolted stuff
![]() Just remove about 50 bolts and the front end falls off. Marking all the wires as I go, so far so good.

Re: My 52 GMC Build
Looking good! Can't wait to see how this one runs.
Taking that front end apart is what's keeping me from doing AC in mine. For whatever reason I stopped getting updates a few pages back, they seem to be working now.

Re: My 52 GMC Build
A bit of fire wall massaging with a big hammer at the top for turbo clearance and had to cut a bit on drivers side to clear exhaust up pipe but not nearly as much as I thought. Welded up some holes that I'm not using any more as well. Added double layer of insulation to the fire wall and exhaust up pipes and turbo are wrapped. Closest place has 1/4" clearance with 3 layers of insulation plus the lizard skin on the inside, should be good.

Re: My 52 GMC Build
I should not have to ever get to the up pipes, but yes I would have to most likely pull turbo as well.

Re: My 52 GMC Build
I have had lots going on, so here we go. New exhaust pipes showed up, old motor had 3" new motor will have 4". All the 3" pipe I bought is for the intake pipes. Decided to make a new tail pipe out of the 6" dia 3/16" wall stainless pipe that the old one was made from. I made a tear drop tip. Took around 30hrs to make and the final cut took 45 min, had to go slow and help the blade go strait down.

Re: My 52 GMC Build
curious, do you plan some sort of heat shield over the exposed area of the pipe? I ask because I was burned badly by an exposed pipe-on a firetruck at work, but still. it's likely gonna get hot and you likely won't wanna babysit it till it cools off.
nice work on fabbing those pipe bends. |

Re: My 52 GMC Build
Then onto cooling, new horizontal aluminum radiator that I modified to go vertical. It was off the shelf from Summit, they are both 4 core the new one is 6" longer and weighs 15lb less. The new fan is 2400cfm/17" and is 500cfm more and 1" bigger than the old one that worked ok. Had to trim the rad support a bit because the pullies are wider on this motor.

Re: My 52 GMC Build
So it has taken a ton of time to figure out what wires I need and where they need to go. (I can't find the right pinout for the computer) I started with the entire engine bay from the truck the motor came out of, whittled it down to what is in the 3rd picture then made spaghetti in my truck. I finally have everything hooked up, so the computer seems to be working properly. After I get the motor started I'll take it back out and make it all neat.

Re: My 52 GMC Build
I don't mind it, it would be a lot more fun if I could find the right pinout. But it's in the past now.
Thank you! I really like making full exhaust, I'll show it when I build it.

Re: My 52 GMC Build
Bit of a mish mash of stuff done. New lift pump and filter set up mounted in the rear same spot as the old setup. Then goes to my fuel cooler up to the motor and out through my regulated return system. I have 62psi without motor running, so I am perfect. Started my intake pipes, so far so good. I also got my new Dakota Digital gauges all working and set up, They are really nice to set up.
