Unfortunately, no more progress.

Too many irons in the fire at the moment to make any meaningful progress.

Hey, where in Pittsburgh are you from? Cool build from another chevy guy from the burgh! You're doing an awesome job, I wish mine was half as clean as yours is turning out to be.

Re: '82 Duramax diesel conversion
 

I thought about a Duramax before settling on the cummins I did not want the electronics and the emissions that are on the newer trucks

Any new progress

Re: '82 Duramax diesel conversion
 

bump. Any progress? Awesome truck. I know exactly how life can get away from you. I have an 85 K5 Blazer with a 396 bbc I have been slowly rebuilding for the last 5 years and I am just know to the point of swapping in the axles that I have had for 6 years. I have started the wiring and that has turned into a nightmare. I have two harness and they are both corroded and pretty much unusable. I have run out of money yet again so not sure what to do about the wiring now. Your dash has me very intrigued. I had thought about a complete dash swap in my K5 to use a 95 or 96 dash.

Re: '82 Duramax diesel conversion
 

I am subscribing to these incase he comes back. I am trying my hardest to replicate that instrument cluster b/c I have put the steering column from the 01 donor into my 87 as well as the instrument cluster but so far I don't have a way to make it look pretty like his.
