Nice!!! I bet his girlfriend is going to love the location....:lol:.

Re: DJ JR's Build Thread
 

Truck sounds great need more video...

Re: DJ JR's Build Thread
 

Maybe some tire smoking video soon! It's amazing how much quieter it is with the cut outs and 3 inch magnaflows.

Re: DJ JR's Build Thread
 

Agreed. It sounds good. How much cam is in it? Its a 468 right? My 496 sounds good with headers open too.

Re: DJ JR's Build Thread
 

It has the edelbrock Performer RPM Cam in it. I think the motor is standard but it might be 30 over. I have been working on the old motor for several years. I bought the motor complete but needing assembly. I upgraded to a closed chamber Dome Piston and 781 oval Ports. I just couldn't do the peanut ports and Flat tops it came with.

Re: DJ JR's Build Thread
 

Nice! SHould make som good power. I've got mini domes and 781's on my 496 also. Do they have any work done to them?

Re: DJ JR's Build Thread
 

Opps! Double post. Sorry

Re: DJ JR's Build Thread
 

Not much done to them. I don't want to get too crazy for a 15yr old.
The sexy shifter cover just came in the mail. Pics Later.

Are ya'll going to the coast this year Kevin?

Re: DJ JR's Build Thread
 

I am planning on bringing this truck and a 59 Chevy truck. I am gonna borrow a 2 car trailer and tow them down and then Cruise.

Re: DJ JR's Build Thread
 

we need to hook up, I am going down the last weekend this year.

Re: DJ JR's Build Thread
 

Sounds like a plan. Pm me your digits.

Re: DJ JR's Build Thread
 

Kevin ,Where did you order your bar and brackets from

Re: DJ JR's Build Thread
 

Can't wait to see it in action!!

Re: DJ JR's Build Thread
 

Speedway Motors.

Re: DJ JR's Build Thread
 

I can't wait either. I am gonna try to get some gauges in it this weekend and finish up some wiring. I got to get some miles on it before Cruisin the Coast. I probably won't beat on it too hard at the track till after that. I have been to cruisin the coast for the last three years wishing I had this truck done.

Starting to look like a truck again. I'm gonna try to get a tag and insurance this week. I want to put some miles on it before Cruisin The Coast!

Started on the gauge cluster but I have a really long way to go. All Autometer Pro Comp gauges mounted behind a stock bezel.

Re: DJ JR's Build Thread
 

Looking great brother can't wait to see y'all crusin the strip at ctc in it.

Re: DJ JR's Build Thread
 

I hope. It kicked my tail tonight.

Re: DJ JR's Build Thread
 

Man that truck is sharp

Re: DJ JR's Build Thread
 

What all are you lacking, can I help in any way?

Re: DJ JR's Build Thread
 

Wow guys!

Truck really turned out great!

So how's does it run?

Re: DJ JR's Build Thread
 

Only way you could help much would be a road trip. But thanks for the thought. I am just a little lacking in the spare time department. Cross your finger's I don't have a cam problem.

It's coming along slow but sure. I may have a cam problem and If I do that will probably kill it coming to CTC. Fixin to go out in the shop and get back on it.

Not running that great yet I got a few bugs to get out.

Re: DJ JR's Build Thread
 

I hope there not the same cam problems I was facing killing distributor gears.

Re: DJ JR's Build Thread
 

What master cylinder is that I am needing one?

Re: DJ JR's Build Thread
 

It's a factory Chrysler Master Cylinder. I had one on the drag truck and it went bad. I crossed reference the dorman number on summits website. I already had the Tank and a reman was 20.00 at Oreillys. The complete unit is 28 at Summit. You do have to widen out the mounting holes a little and change your fittings on your lines. Also front line is close to the firewall and rear line is to the front. (learned that the hard way)

Re: DJ JR's Build Thread
 

Lowered the front last night and installed the new front shocks. Gonna try to get the gauges in the dash tonight and get an alignment tomorrow. My 3 3/8 water temp gauge is sent off at the moment. The Thermo coupler was bad. I hope it makes it back before Cruisin the Coast.

Re: DJ JR's Build Thread
 

did you find the cam issue?

Re: DJ JR's Build Thread
 

I think I have it straightened out. Gonna try to drive it some this weekend.

Re: DJ JR's Build Thread
 

Awsome!!!!!

Re: DJ JR's Build Thread
 

Headed to the shop for a few finishing touches before we leave for Cruisin the Coast!
