I would love to be there working on it with you at this fun stage - full size model kit that turns out an awesome ride!
No bellybutton - put a 318 or 360 with a 518 - easy to find with the rear sump pan you will need in many pickups in the wreckers and as cheap as a...
I guess hell froze over huh? final machine work and then they are casting these up for sale. [IMG]...
awesome, this is one of the threads I watch on here, hate to have to look elsewhere. Glad you are sticking around, we need to see it finished!:D
No Load, no problem.
Anybody who says there are no stupid questions has never worked on a service desk. :eek:
Not a GM fan, but what a cool ride! sits just right, looks like you drove it out of a barn, just awesome. Will look better with paint though.
sweet truck, great motor and transmission, all Mopar, all good. The only thing I would do is add to the rear of the sump to make up for lost...

Wow, well you found the answer, not a good one, but an answer. :(

This is what Blower Drive Service lists as their stage one small chevy blower cam - pretty mild, but I think the LSA is the key with a roots...
put it in a corvette - instant 350 hp. Add a chrome air cleaner and some yellow plug wires, you're up to 500 hp. :-)
I see why you are into Chevy's :rolleyes:
the cam turns 180 degrees for every 360 degrees of crank rotation - can't be 180 out.
Agreed - hillbilly mechanical engineer - Indian name "No Pinkies" While you're there, you may as well light that gas soaked balancer, just cause.
I think Don has it right, his combo definitely works - very consistent 11's in a heavy Charger back up his claims. I think most of the bench...
Mac Struts are cheaper and easier to package - not better performance wise. A coil spring is just a coiled up torsion bar - it is not...
Classic!
this guy will do it . . . [IMG]
I think I may try some dryer sheets . . .
So I should try cotton underwear instead?
why is my sack itchy?
2 wants it out of the garage and doesn't want any money spent on it, but likes me to have a hobby :confused:
The numbers on the jets don't sound right to me . . .
