Re: 1962 GMC 305V6 4WD Slow DD Build - Cecilia (Pic Heavy)

Put the air horn back on the main body. Try to keep the gasket lined up. If you can rock it forward and backward like a hobby horse then it's likely hanging up on those needles we put in. You should be able to wiggle it gently and get it to seat properly.





Then start putting your screws back in the air horn. I like to put them all in then tighten them like you do a wheel, going from one side to the other so they seat as flat as possible. Does it matter? Probably not.

I tighten them just enough to start really pinching the gasket tight.

The first screw we do has that accelerator cable tie-down. Don't forget it like I did. That's why it isn't shown in the second pic. Whoops!






For this one make sure the little brass plate is pointing up so the next owner isn't swearing at you







Your air horn is now attached! Let's do the spaghetti.
