I am in MN too. Sadly my truck will not be ready for BTT50s.
Sounds alot like my story. I got my family truck that had sat for 30 years and got it running. I drive it stock for 2 years. I hauled stuff and...
I will definitely make a video. Things will stall out for a bit again. I need about $1000 worth of parts to get to where I can make it run. I...
Well I work slowly but I am working. I got that fuel pump installed. There are a ton of videos online of how to do it but here are a few pictures....
Mike, Great link thanks. I have my engine in with the truck pan and since the body is off I can do lots of measurements to see what will fit....
Thanks Steve, Those were the pictures I needed. Looks like you got a good price on that pan too. Thanks for the exhaust part numbers. That will...
Steve, Where did you get the f-body pan from and how much did it cost you? I think I am going to need one. Also, here is this "header" thread you...
So I was just joking about hauling the GTO to the scrap heap. It has sat since the engine fire it had around 1979 and my dad bought it in 1984. We...
Yeah I really like building the truck. I get discouraged by things out of my control like the machine shop or bad weather that keep me from...
I wasn't thinking of going to a full shine polish on the cover, just clean the oxidation off to make it look mostly new. I'm going to run a new...
Thanks for the compliment. My engine is actually a 5.3L LS. It will look like an LS better when I get the LS6 intake on it.
So I have been really good at slacking on my project. I still have my truck stored at my fathers house 4 hours away because he has alot of tools I...
What did that set you back? I got the Brother's tank and it fit like a glove. I didn't get a fuel pump in mine so I opted for the Aeromotive...
No the pump isn't installed yet. I didn't have the correct size hole saw when i wanted to install it and this weekend was the first time I have...
I had to go up north for a wedding but was able to get in a few hours on my cab. I pulled the windshield and 3 rear windows. One of the corner...
Well I have made no progress because I haven't been able to make it up to my Dad's house to work on the truck any more. The engine is at the...
What kind of measurements were you looking for? The Brother's tank is pretty big as you can see in the pics but it fits without messing with the...
Willowy? I have no idea what that means. The frame is plenty strong for regular driving with a stock 5.3. Its not going to be some high powered...
The last two days have been productive. I got the 5.3 tore down and ready to go to the machine shop. The #2 piston was stuck but I got it out. I...
The transmission should be good. I got it from a reputable auto recycler and it only has 73,000 miles on it. You never know if its actually good...
