Well, here's my new project I got a few weeks ago. It was in pieces everywhere when I got her. I had a 350 w/ a 400 turbo ****** installed. Since then I have had to rearrange the radiator, put drop springs in the front. bought 14 inch wheels for the front. I'm trying to get the radiator hose issue settled. The water pump outlet is larger than the bottom radiator outlet from the dodge. She fires right up. Sounds great. I am having the original drive shaft cut this week to match up with the rear end and the 350 motor. She's definitely going to be a work in progress, but I love to do this stuff. I've got to make a shifter linkage that will adapt to the original column shifter. Just wanted to share my Sunshine with you.
I've since added the brake booster and M/C and trimmed up the engine a little bit. I'm going to use some Dodge truck bedrails as the lake side pipes and have a flange made to connect them to the headers.
not yet. i haven't had a chance to take off the pitman arms and readjust the tie rod ends or rods. hoping that I don't have to get any of the extension sleeves they sell. will keep updated.
