Thanks. Looks like I need to get that rubber piece and run a new wire.
Hi, How do I make this work? I believe the horn wire is supposed to screw on the horn ring but how does it ground out to trigger the horn? I...
I was messing around with it a little more. If I slightly tilt the alternator, it clears the pipe and if add an idler with a custom bracket like...
The upper hose wants to occupy the same space as the generator and belt. I’m using the edelbrock offset bracket and have tried different belt...
Gorgeous! Love the side shots.
Thanks for the additional pictures. Helps to have a reference picture like these. Makes sense now. Each time I get confused, I scroll your build...
Oh okay, great. I have one steel drivers side rear fender and it had that hole in it so I wasn’t sure. I’m running fiberglass fenders which have...
Ya,sorry. It’s for a pickup. I have the bed off the frame right now for bodywork and paint. Trying to get what I can done for now since it’s too...
Does anyone have pictures of these installed? Can’t figure these out
I have those stainless hinges. At the pivot points, one was loose and the other was binding a little but I could still move it. I’d try some anti...
I didn’t see any pictures of your lower radiator hose but depending on its shape and length it could be collapsing at higher rpm and restricting...
You can buy insulator washers cheap. I’d bend up a new bracket to fit the gauge.
That engine is deserving of a line lock tied to that green light for some Smokey moments. Truck is looking great!
Great job! You’re moving along fast and the truck is looking really good. Thanks for the motivation. I was getting burnt out with mine. haha
Nice work! Looking at your last photo… maybe the angle of your photo but how much shock travel do those front shocks have now that your engine is...
Looking good! You’ve been busy!! Great choice on those peep mirrors. Planning to run those on mine as well.
Thanks for the pictures, they helped.
Thanks. This helps and at least confirms they actually bolt to the frame. Mine seem to be bent causing nothing to line up. They were just resting...
Does anyone have pictures on how these mount to the frame? I dont see any holes lining up on mine.
I used duplicolor spray cans. I’ll pm you a photo. Sent from my iPad using H.A.M.B.
Check out the Zmax 2k clear as well. I just sprayed my engine with it yesterday, turned out good.
Doesn’t help that it’s on private property either. Police won’t do anything. They were probably so focused on reading your grill, they ran into...
I purchased those same panels and agree, not the greatest fit but in my case, my original Floor was paper thin and the wire wheel was showing all...
I would think you should be around 155-160 psi. Your valve seats likely need a regrind. Doesn’t seem like a quick fix. Before you pull the heads,...
I’ll make a prayer to the hot rod gods before install.
Just got my 1007b delivered today. Should have the rest of my parts in by end of week to start the build up. I think I’ll be in the engine around...
Checked and no cores. Placed my order for a new one from reds. Got plenty to keep me occupied in the meantime. [IMG] Thanks for all the replies.

I’m looking to get a 1007b but my core is too worn for a regrind. Is reds the only one to buy new? Sent from my iPad using H.A.M.B.
