Mike: You need to fix your electrical system. Speedo shows almost 80 MPH but ammeter shows a discharge! Ought to be charging big time at that speed.
If it is a long tailshaft 350 the dimensions are exact.....even the trans mount is in the same location. If you have a short output shaft 350, the 700 is a few inches longer. The swap is still well worth having the driveshaft shortened. My shop will do it for 1 hr labor...about $60. I can get one cut to size with new u joints for $100.
Walked right past my company truck and hoped in Henry for my 15 mile commute to work. :metal: Henry's step brother "Gene" was here too!! Gene is a baddass '49 GMC owned by a coworker. Sweet build done about the same time as Henry!! 383 stroker, tubed with narrowed 9", over the frame headers..........dream build list!! Cool thing is "Gene" is also a Family truck It was Casey's Grampa's truck. Both trucks live 4 blocks apart!!
burn outs No youtube video of the smokie burn outs? I hear corkey coker calling for your order of fresh wide white to replace the soon to be bald ones
Nothing new to post. Got the timing dialed. Somehow it was very retarded. Set perfect now. Runs even better now. Carb is dialed in as well. Lost of little stuff to do, but I am enjoying driving it to much. If I go more than a couple days without at least a short cruise I get crabby!!
Slowly tinkering as I have time.............there is never enough time. Cam, sprockets and chain are here. I started "Finally" putting in my passenger side Altman EZ latch kit. It is sad I put the drivers side in almost 2 years ago. My 12 circuit EZ wiring harness came in as well!!
?? Did you miss the part where he said "12 circuit EZ wiring"? http://www.ezwiring.com/wiring_harness.html
Finally got started on the wiring. First things I did was gut all the old wiring out!! It did not take too long. After that I laid the new wiring and removed circuits and wires I would not be using. I installed the fuse block under the dash and starting pulling wires to the appropriate areas. After the wires were in the area's I tackled the dash. It is always nice to get the toughest stuff out the of the way first.
