how to make up a braided hose
If it would help anyone, I did a write up in the custom c30 thread with step by step pictures using all those handy little guys. It takes the pain out of making them. Also if anyone uses a cut off wheel be sure to clean the lines out before installing them they will be full of debris.- BigDaddy72

If you use the khol tools and aluminum vise jaws the are a breeze. There is also a cutter that cuts the lines clean with no tape and no frayed ends. Use these and AN lines are easy peasy.- BigDaddy72

I don’t know how to spell a whistling sound but boy that is one sweet looking bbc. I love the belt drive and that vac pump looks awesome on there! You’ve even got a set of the “real” moroso cast aluminum valve covers. Very nice! I really like how a race engine looks. Street Rods are cool but...- BigDaddy72

The little man helped his Dad do some priming today. This was his first time using a paint gun. With a little encouragement he did pretty good. Was a good day- BigDaddy72

Paint job came out great! I really love this color. I have a really cool (Well I think it’s cool) discontinued eke. water pump that should look pretty sweet on this engine!! Stay tuned!- BigDaddy72

Very cool. I’ve been a tri-5 owner since I was 16 and I’m 48 now. I used to see that conversion pretty often until guys started to figure out that there really isn’t much difference between the 2 and 4 doors and started turning them 4 doors into 2 doors.- BigDaddy72
