    I need legal advice

    your oil pressure is ok if it is at 30 when hot. If when you say tailpipe is black.....do you mean they are blue on the OUTSIDE of the pipe? Where do they exit....side of truck or rear? Blue can be normal up towards the engine.........but not at the ends of the tips. Take a valve cover off...

    Mission 4 A Transmission

    Thanks for that link Drabo............ No offense to anyone..........but I did not even consider that a company would take the time to offer a conversion for those old sixes.

    Mission 4 A Transmission

    You will need to go with a later model 6 cyl. The bellhousings are different. I may be wrong, but I don't think they even offered an auto with a 6 in '62.

    Chevy 283 V8 motor problem.....

    2bl vs. 4bl

    If you go with a good quadrajet and keep your foot out of it............you should get better mileage than the larger primary 2bbl. Keep in mind your cam lobes are for a 2bbl too. You will get a boost in performance still.

    Have you guys seen this?

    Well, lets see. It is a very cool idea.........a 'new' old truck. Nice to see someone try what the rest of us would love to...........design and build a 'new' old vehicle..but with updated features. I see they went with Ford for the obvious....Ford is willing to supply the hobby market much...
