Re: New project : 72 Suburban

Today Dad and I were continuing on the wiring on the Suburban and made an amazing discovery. Powered up the wiring harness for the rear AC unit and the fans came on, all 3 speeds and the small cone shaped interior light underneath the unit is operational and working. Good day in the garage today!

Re: New project : 72 Suburban

Wiring is just about finished on the Suburban. Last week Dad and I took a few days and built the exhaust system for it, came out pretty good. In the process of building a homemade oil primer for the LS. Hopefully sometime next weekend I will fire it up for the first time. Cant wait to hear it run!

Re: New project : 72 Suburban

Started the Suburban up for the first time this afternoon. The 402 stroker LS sounds pretty good ! When I get back into town on Friday we are going to go through the gears in the trans to make sure it is good to go then Saturday start hanging the front clip on it ... Getting excited ! Cant wait to drive it for the first time !!!
