Did you go with the p51 for any reason in paticular? Trying to make up my mind. Thanks

Re: '63 GMC Project
 

The diffrence between the P51 and the P47 is that the 47 uses stock LCA's. The 51 you have to use SD's LCA's. I'm not sure if you can use any other companys arms.

They both do the same thing. If your on a budget go with the 47. But right now SD isn't taking anymore orders for either one. They are way behind and trying to catch back up before then start taking more orders. Give SD a call to make sure. I had the P51 and it's a great product.

If your wanting it now give PB a call.

Re: '63 GMC Project
 

I went with the P-51 because the way the lower arms mounted. I liked the bolt through the arm instead of the original style u-bolt mounts of the P-47. I went with the SD setup over the Porterbuilt kit because sd.com is only 1 state over and shipping was a lot cheaper (and they cut me a hell of a deal).

sweet..Thanks for the info.

Re: '63 GMC Project
 

Small update, changed the radiator out for an aluminum unit I got off ebay and replaced the fan for a dual 13" setup I got from Summit Racing. Before the swap the motor would get up to about 210 after only 30 mins, after It only reached about 180 after an hour and 15 mins. Right now I only have 1 crappy cell phone pic of the rad and fans before I installed them but I will get some better shots of them installed later.

Re: '63 GMC Project

Re: '63 GMC Project
 

You know with the patina look you are going for I have a patinaed gmc grill that would match the patina look of you truck, will trade you straight across for that good looking chrome grille..........;) Let me know and I will ship the rusty one to you........Kieth :gmc2:


Your truck is looking great..........

Re: '63 GMC Project
 

Nice!!!

Re: '63 GMC Project
 

Nice! I updated to a dual fan on my 66.....I used the fan out of a 2005 Scion TC and a generic electric switch I bought from Advance. Installed it myself in about 30 minutes and it only cost me about $100 total for everything. The truck runs so much cooler now and it really freed up my 327 V8, I could actually feel the truck make more power without that heavy fan dragging on the motor.

Re: '63 GMC Project
 

Awesome truck! The cooler idea is really cool.

Re: '63 GMC Project
 

Thanks.

I think I'll pass on that trade...nice try though

Re: '63 GMC Project
 

Thanks. Right now one fan is wired to run with the truck on and one is wired to kick on when the temp reaches 185 and shut off at 175.

Re: '63 GMC Project
 

That's just a pic I snapped with my phone. I've seen the pics, plenty of "truck" in them. You can see them here; http://www.ecsmagazine.com/Shows/201...11/index9.html

Re: '63 GMC Project
 

I found a couple pics of my truck online from the Goodguys show in Columbus. It was a huge show, over 6,000 vehicles there. If you ever have a chance to go you should.
