mostly I'm learning about it. but as far as crazy stuff, not yet . But she runs perfectly and has gotten so much love. this truck has changed a lot since Ive had it but its been covered in a garagfor the past 12 years straight. bought it from like a 45 yr old guy whos dad bought it new.
the next things i want to do-
-get a deep dish trans pan (cast aluminum)
-find a newer carb
Ive got the old rochester 4bbl with manual choke
-find a yellowtop
stuff Ive done myself to it since Ive had it:
-had all the fluids flushed and changed(including differentials and transfer case)
-removed old transmission and put in new thm350
-new400tc
-new 32.5 inch tires(got em siped)
-no rust on original wheels, really amazing shape
-installed a decent autometer mechanical temp gauge right into intake manifold.
-installed a 10,000 btu B&M tranny cooler right in front of radiator with small spacers to ensure good airflow.
-new belts
-new spark plugs
-cut out the heat riser
-new radiator cap
-clay bar'd the crap out of her
-greased all my zerks
-put new heavy duty shocks all the way around
I like doing projects every weekend. What are some fun projects that take like 4-8 hours to do and are fairly cheap?
