Re: Daverods project 66
Swap meets are where unfinished projects are passed on to others.
Who just might not finish them either!!

Re: Daverods project 66
It was a couple of weeks ago. I think they still have one in the Fall, but I don't think it is as big as the one in the Spring.

Re: Daverods project 66
I have an extra gauge console for a 57 Chevy Belair. I wonder if I could make it work in my 65 dash. Do ya think it can be done.?

Re: Daverods project 66
You can do it. Dare to be different. Your in no rush anyways. I love how you just happen to have an extra. Did alittle more still have ? I'm guessing somekinda spacer? As for the header thing? thread bolt thread? Don't really know.

Re: Daverods project 66
Dave
I am doing the same thing with the brackets. Look closely at the picture on post 2398. There is a small spacer between the bracket and the head. Those 2 holes should line up. In your last picture the hole in the bracket should line up with the front header bolt (they should line up if the top ofthe bracket lines up with the hole in the front of the head). You will need a spacer between the header and the bracket since the stock manifold is much thicker in that area. You could use a threaded stud in the head for the header bolt that is long enough to pass thru the bracket. At the header, use a nut and then another nut on the stud on the backside of the bracket, then another nut to clamp the bracket down tight. Hope that makes sense.

Re: Daverods project 66
You need to have a little spacer between the head and mount. There is a metal peice that goes between the exhaust flange and the mount.
For like $50 you can get a new mount off summit that's a lot better.

Re: Daverods project 66
Hey Daverod,
I did the same thing the pics are on my budget build. First page #23,24,25. Hope that will help. The build is looking good and am enjoying the fat fender build too. Keep up the good work! |

Re: Daverods project 66
I thought I had the pic of your welding that you did, and I thought that was it when I posted it. I went back over to your thread.
