Re: My 52 GMC Build

So we are back and had a great trip, sorry no updates along the way for some reason my phone would not open the form.
This morning I put my truck in winter storage about 15 min away from home.
Truck ran amazing. I'll go day by day starting Wednesday Oct 19 we left our house at 4:45 pm and headed for the US border. Made great time, took us 2 hours.
Going up some of the small hills we have I didn't like the turbo was producing 13psi of boost when I had it set to 8psi so I removed the crappy boost controller at the duty free and put a hose in place. Brought it down to 5-6psi ok for this trip.
There was a motor home parked behind us changing a tire. I ended up helping him break the bead using my air ride and the trailer so he could change the valve stem. A few up and downs and yay they where on there way too.
Crossed into Buffalo NY
Short time later we entered PA
Then stayed with some friends of the family the first night.
