am i loosing some of ya??


welded the fuel tank braces in today.
welded in the upper shock mounts, and mounted shocks in the rear.
got my powersteering pump and alternator mocked up.
this is the way v-belts are supposed to look!
I still need to make spacers and tensioners, but it don't look like its going to be hard at all.
grabed the gp38's out of storage.
and its time for headers!
I think these turbos are too big...

 

ya ain't lost me. i am just quietly sitting here waiting for the drive it out of the shop video.
but i got to say, you are making it look way too easy.

 

She's gettin' running boards, right?

Love the mirrors.

 

shes getting a set of stacks i have inder the rockers, like a overgrown old skool lake pipe set up.
and a step ladder that will fold under the seat to get in and out of.

 

I'm still watching! By far the coolest build I've seen yet!

 

Still watching as well, just quietly like TJC said lol, I agree with him your making this look waaaaaaaay to easy! Lol I love the build so far though!!!!

 

its just a machine! super simple to throw together.
i have been building customs heavily for the past 15 years.
it only looks easy because ive done many of them.
still by no means a professional, but im getting there!


just wanted to make sure im not posting somthin no one gives a rats ash about lol


here was MY first true custom that ive done for myself. built it back in 03 and still tweaking it lol


time to build a header! catch ya later

 

Nice...er....um.....beer fridge?....

 

I'd only wanna drive that thing if wearing a hat tall enough to stick out the top, and with a brim about 10 feet around. And a fake gold tooth cap. That, or dressed up like Herman Munster....

His whole place has the best "p!ss off the neighbors" thing going that I've ever seen.

 

you are what you eat. hahahahah
so i didn't get much done today.
went to build headers and the straight pipe i have is 2.25 and the bends are 2"
DRATS!
on hold till Monday.
had a few friends come over to visit, so needless to say it was a saporro and Gorilla scout cookies kinda day.
im pretty hammered right now,
TGIF

 

i need to turn it into a kegorator with the tap at the ****!

 

I like your style!

 

Are you going to run a dual turbo set up? cause that is pretty awesome

 

IDIoit, talk to me about the alternator. Especially the mount. I think my vacuum pump is currently taking that space. Did you just eliminate the vac pump? I guess you may not even need vacuum, I still do, for now. Still, your mount gives me ideas. Is that a GM 1 wire?


My '86 6.9IDI has electrical gremlins. I've done grounds and more grounds, new V-regs after new V-regs. I'm done. One way or another, I'm doing a GM 1 wire.

 

ford 3G alternator is a lot better than the gm 1 wire
