Re: 68 C50 Looongbed pickup build

I didn't finish unloading the posts until after dark on Saturday. Sunday afternoon, after changing the oil in my DD I enlisted some help from my brother and we flushed the power steering pump. I pulled the belt off the P/S pump and rigged up a socket on an electric drill to spin the pump with. I had a gallon of P/S fluid that I picked up at AutoZone to flush it with. I worked the steering back and forth while my brother ran the pump. We went through the whole gallon but were getting nice clean fluid by the end. After that I reinstalled the exhaust manifold, that is about when I realized that I still need to pull and weld up the manifold for the other side. By the way, Felpro exhaust manifold gaskets have a shiny, dimpled side and a side that just looks like a dark grey gasket, any idea which side is supposed to be against the head and which one to the manifold?

That's all for now folks, I hope to make some real progress next weekend!
