Nice rattle can flames. lol. You do awesome work btw.. I need to learn how to weld, so I can do some of this stuff.

Re: Little Brothers 74 Build Up!
 

thanks man!

Re: Little Brothers 74 Build Up!
 

updates? I think I'm addicted.

Re: Little Brothers 74 Build Up!
 

ok so where are the updates?

Re: Little Brothers 74 Build Up!
 

soon!!!!!

Re: Little Brothers 74 Build Up!
 

Might I suggest running something like the Megasquirt computer ? The biggest advantage is that it can be programmed on the fly with a laptop. No chip burning needed. Cost is VERY reasonable. It will work with your distributor and control timing as well.

Not to say the stock GM computer can't be made to work, you will just have a much easier time tuning the Megasquirt.

Re: Little Brothers 74 Build Up!
 

And a PITA time wiring it up...

Re: Little Brothers 74 Build Up!
 

I Have megasquirt I and II that i was going to use on my 5.3 swaps for other projects, but i may use it for this one. I'm so deep into stock( time and money wise) so i'll probably stay the course on his truck.

Re: Little Brothers 74 Build Up!
 

Sweet project I wish I was 12 agian... Cant wait to see it done...

Re: Little Brothers 74 Build Up!
 

I wonder what ever happened with this build?

Re: Little Brothers 74 Build Up!
 

Yeah I would like to see updates as well. Looks like nice work so far.

Re: Little Brothers 74 Build Up!
 

It will be back with a lazarus like flare! I promise! Gotta get some other junk out of the way. My brother will be 15 and a half in october so that leaves me 6 months if he keeps his grades up. He's already found girls and....... we all know how that goes. Worst that could happen is i have another project of my own:waah:lol

Re: Little Brothers 74 Build Up!
