Re: My 66 GMC LWB

After searching these forums for a couple days for lengthening the booster rod and mounting the booster, and running the lines, I ran across a post by you that lead me to your build thread.
Thanks for all the pics.
They help a lot.
I got all my stuff off a 79, so I will be doing it the way you did.

I need to get the drive shaft shorten due to swapping in the 700R4. Also need a new dip stick tub as the one that came with the tranny has a split in it...

I also modified the AC compressor mounting system so that I can install my 14" air cleaner. The original location for the compressor was on top and to the right of the bracket and put this compressor on top of the intake right in front of the carb. I mounted the compressor on the opposite side and used a bracket to put the adjuster bolt on the left instead of the right. Looks much better now and my air cleaner has plenty of room
