Nice to see the engine getting closer to it's home again. I love the old school look plus TBI that was probably my favorite thing the first time I saw your truck. Not built to be a screamer but efficient and reliable and it will have the "look" for sure :metal:

Does this mean that your new top secret project will be there ?

Heck, I can't even keep the darn thing running right. It sure is pretty sitting there in the garage though. I don't think it likes going to shows. Runs fine all winter and then BLAM! Show season hits and it acts up. Argh.

At least Mike's only frustration is not being able to say 'when'! :lol: Just kidden ya, Mike! All this extra work is going to pay off big time when you wipe up at the shows. I'll bring my Vette to the shows you will be in. :waah:

Re: 67 cheby's Dropmember build thread
 

Lookin good!

Re: 67 cheby's Dropmember build thread
 

This time, its either an exhaust leak or something mechanical. The truck is so loud, it's really hard to diagnose for an amateur. Hard to pinpoint the exact location of the sound without a stethoscope.

Re: 67 cheby's Dropmember build thread
 

sorry to hog your thread, Mike.

Re: 67 cheby's Dropmember build thread
 

the exaustleak should be eazy to spot when you hold a rag against the end of the tailpipe(s) to close it off with a running engine and listen / have someone listen for the hiss at the leak

as for using a stethoscope a long screwdriver or rod against the engine and the other end against the bone in front of youre ear while holding the ear closed with youre tumb make thing suprizingly clear right through all the noise , its cheaper and more available then a stethosthingy too

Re: 67 cheby's Dropmember build thread
 

Cool!! I'll try those things tomorrow. Thanks a bunch!!

That body drop isn't going to cause problems with those filler panels is it? i didn't notice how close they come to the frame.

Re: 67 cheby's Dropmember build thread
 

We will see later this week, my Bolt on Body drop should ship today !

Re: 67 cheby's Dropmember build thread
 

well didnt get very much done this weekend , but i did get one of my AC brackets made to move it up as far as i can, gained about 1 1/2 inches, the center isnt bolted yet that is why it is setting a little lopsided at the moment

Re: 67 cheby's Dropmember build thread
 

Looks good all tucked up in there!

Re: 67 cheby's Dropmember build thread
 

You may have to test fit your hoses and your glove box as moving it up may change whether they will work or not as designed. I remember from mine that there wasn't much room to spare for anything else up in there. It is crammed full!

Re: 67 cheby's Dropmember build thread
 

i am fitting my hoses this week

Re: 67 cheby's Dropmember build thread
 

:lol::lol::lol:I'll leave that one alone.....

Re: 67 cheby's Dropmember build thread
 

LOL...man you have to be careful how you phrase stuff around here !!!

Re: 67 cheby's Dropmember build thread
 

yep....sorry. That bracket sure looks close to the glove box door, is that permanent or do you have some special secret plans for the glove box area??

Re: 67 cheby's Dropmember build thread
 

Think thats a mirage...looks like it's welded to cowl.....Mike will tell us....lol...jim
