Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....

Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.

Re: Starting 1966 Factory Short Bed Build, Bagged, 383 Stroker and Muncie M20 4-Speed

So i bought a full set of gauges from Boese engineering. They look great, price was good, but the gas guage is for 0-30ohm = "65 and before, and my new tank and sending unit are 0-90ohm, so hopefully they have an exchange process. Otherwise they are a great company to work with from what i have found and the product is good

So I was able to get ahold of Boese Engineering, they will take back in trade the gauge for the correct one, I pay for Shipping, which I understand. So that is nice to know that they are very willing to help.

Thank you sir. It has been an adventure, but a fun one mostly, lol. I have done a "69 ground up resto to LS, but nothing like this one. I used that one to learn for this one! I may be a bit slow, but i am in no real hurry, well wait, i wasn't due to this little Covid bastard, but now that i got through that, i want to get back into some shows and fun, so my motivation is really picking up. More is coming.

Well i will say this, if you think that its a good idea putting together an Excel spreadsheet with all your parts you have purchased and for how much on it, then what you need to order.... Lets just say.... if you do DO NOT RUN A TOTAL!! LOL DAAAMMMMNNNNNNNN that hurts... lol Oh well, it is a great time... and i hate to think of what i could have spent those two dollars on.... LOL
Pics to come of the sub box completed.... and then the start of the custom kick panels.

It should.... i hope so at least. I may be a bit old school or just an old metal head who likes all kinds of different types of music, but i like to "feel" the music. Back in the day I had a mini-truck that could boom really good, was Vice-Prez in the club, went to shows.... I miss some of that... so i am kinda going back to them days, but with A LOT more horsey power, more classy rig and well i am couple years older... lol you see how i left out wiser....

Thank you sir. It was not real easy only because i can very anal on things like this, so it takes me longer but in the end I tend to really like it. I will be placing the amps right in the middle of the box, between the seats and the Subs. I like to see them, easy access and why not.
