The truck has an s10 T5 in it for anyone wondering. I got the cam tower all painted up last night. :-)

<----------- Yes :)
Larry, Van would be so proud!! So glad you got the truck back "home" and resurrected it. The day of the auction I was extremely irritated that...
Sweet Biscayne! (nice engine too)
Count'nCarbs - that car is awesome!
Ok. I'll have to pull a wheel and take a pic to post. Pretty sure they're Bendix type. The front steering is tight and all new a few years ago...
Hey squirrel! Fellow drag weeker and bangshifter. :) Yeah, I'm torn as to what I want to do. My dad drove this thing in the late 70's/early 80's...
So I talked to both Classic Parts and Speedway yesterday. They both offer dual reservoir (non power boosted) master cylinders and the brackets to...
Thanks for the info. I've noticed a few "L" brackets online like you mentioned... curious if there's an off the shelf setup that would work. I...
Jet - thanks for the info. Surely a dual reservoir manual brake setup is a common swap while still keeping the stock clutch linkage....
Hi guys, I don't post a whole lot on here but read quite a bit. I did a search but honestly didn't find a whole lot. Here's what I've got. '52...
Pictures?
That's awesome! I love the Sprint6/T5/3.90 combo in my '52. Can't wait to build my '38 Pontiac sedan, but its gonna have a 389 in it.
Nice meeting you and thanks for the shirt. I definitely dig the straight 6's.
There's a few of us south of the city that might be interested in getting together. ('52 chevy p/u, '56 buick, '51 Ford, '31 Chevy coupe)
I'm gonna try to make it.
We need to get a caravan going up from STL next year!
It was my first time to RR and had a great time. We cruised up about 200 miles from just south of St.Louis and enjoyed the weekend. I posted about...
I know this is an old post, but I can't seem to find the VIN tag on my '38 Pontiac 6 2dr sedan. Is it underneath the battery tray and on top of...
I run 3.90's and a t5 behind my sprint 6 and it works great!
Cool car, looking forward to your build.
My sprint 6 is in a '52 pickup with a T5 (.72 OD), 3.90's, and 28" tall tires. It got about 18mpg average on our Frog Follies trip last August....
Pontiac OHC Sprint 6 right here. :) [IMG] [IMG]
Subscribing, great thread! I've got a set of 14x6 5 spoke ET wheels... guess I should post a picture. Trying to find out more info on them.
We've got 4 of them... all are sprints. :)
I've got one in my '52 Chevy pickup... my dad put it in there back in '78. I know a decent amount about them and parts are somewhat available if...
Good looking car. :p
Thanks for the compliments. The Sprint 6's are sweet little motors and fun to work on. My dad built this motor back in '74 or so for the '50...
