My '70 C/10 - The Rat Bastard... [Won't Idle.]

[ion]

Hey man... It's gotten to 28* here, once, I think...

It's gotten to -20 here for the past few winters.

All the hot air from the politicians is keeping us warm...
It's like a greenhouse-effect of stupidity, down here in the valley.

Stay up there, in yer wierd, mountain-desert, sand people community...
With yer cold, and yer tweakers....

Getting a trans cooler from Dremu.... Awesome.

I have extra crap in my garage. Mike got screwed by Ebay seller.

Seems like a win-win to me.

what exactly is freezing to you? 50?

Well it does go to 11 a few times but average is 22-28.
I have to remove frozen dew of my windshield 90% of mornings

You didn't ask for one, I assumed you had one.
I have a few
And you were here.
I should start displaying better with big signs.

It had to be a new one....

I'm not running a used cooler, on a brand new Race tranny.
I mentioned buying a new one, to you.

Not surprised you don't remember, it was one of 100 things.

 

[TheBeast_88K5]

On a side note.... I love being a 'regular', everywhere I go...

I dropped into the hardware store to ask about fittings, for my fuel pump.
The guy hands me $20 in fittings and says, "Bring back what you don't need, pay for what ya do."



I guess it pays to be honest.

 

[TheBeast_88K5]

AND...

My Summit AN fittings got here in 12 hours.
I ordered em at 8pm last night, and they got here at 8:30am.
Summit is ON IT.

 

[LIVEAnimals]

Summit is always good for that. We are only 2 hours from Reno but I'm happy if I don't have to leave the house to get what I want.

 

[TheBeast_88K5]

Yep... My fuel hose don't agree with AN compression fittings.
Go figure.

Back to NAPA tomoro, and then to Tognottis for real -6AN fuel line.
Thank gawd my coolant lines are barbed, not compression.
10 and 12AN hose is RETARDED expensive.

At least three feet of 6AN is only $15.

 

[TheBeast_88K5]

Monday cant get here fast enough...
Just knowing that i have to send back the stuff thats gonna show up, and order new stuff.

Tuesday should see my fuel all hooked up, Alternator wired, and Heater Hoses fitted.
Which are the last of my coolant hoses...
Everything else will be done by Saturday, cuz thats when ill be getting the Trans cooler.

Hell or high water, im firing this b*tch up next Sunday.

I have a new one too

 

[TheBeast_88K5]

I have a new one too

Of course you do... Why wouldnt you?

Well, you can keep that one.
The one Aaron has is perfect for my application.

 

[TheBeast_88K5]

Dropped the truck 4", in the rear...


Good luck charm.

Work smarter, not harder.

Yep.... Thats some niiiiice low....

Wheel well clearance...

So much LOW...

Now, for that 2", up front...

[sokoloka]

Looks great! Can't wait to see it fired up. When are you chopping the front coils?

 

[NorCal69]

Hehe, I like it..

Tomoro....

The only things i have to do tomoro, are hook up the fittings.
Pending that they get here tomorrow.
I thought they would all be here today.

After that, its just the Trans Cooler, that I'm getting saturday.

Oh, and measure for my driveshaft, and check pinion angles.
Then, order my driveshaft.
Thanks GAWD its not another High Angle, CV, HD, 1350 shaft...

Hehe, I like it..

Thanks... Its gonna look good, for a $26 drop.
