I'll post more sexy part pictures for the C10 this weekend like the stovebolt twin cast manifold and the freshly powder coated parts. Luckily (for me) when it's raining my car is inside, so i can work on this.

Great day and weather today, nice to see spring is coming. We made great progress, carbs fitted and linkages on. Stainless steel front section of exhaust fabricated welded up with stainless wire, first time I have used stainless wire and Argon gas, welded really nice. Got the timing set and rockers adjusted and fired up nice after a little bit of tinkering and ticks over sweet. Still have the accelerator linkage to install which will be replacing the pushrods with a cable, which should give better throttle response, so not road tested it yet. But just on the drive revving it I can tell it will be more responsive with the twin carbs. http://i392.photobucket.com/albums/p...psesdklzxz.jpg http://i392.photobucket.com/albums/p...psqi0nbhtp.jpg http://i392.photobucket.com/albums/p...ps1jppt7ya.jpg http://i392.photobucket.com/albums/p...pszkqw6kcd.jpg http://i392.photobucket.com/albums/p...pszpftadbw.jpg http://i392.photobucket.com/albums/p...psbwosf1gi.jpg http://i392.photobucket.com/albums/p...ps2kfd0aaw.jpg forgot to add Mark had the rocker cover powder coated and his girlfriend hand painted the logo on the rocker cover and I think it really brings the engine bay alive |
