Re: Project 67 GMC custom 6.5 turbo diesel
Ok so its getting really close to D day. I'm actually trying to drop the motor this weekend. My stud girdle kit was delayed, but they took care of me and shipped it expediated on their dime. I got my waterpump (from SSdiesel supply) bolted up, started bolting up the accessories, painted the exhaust manifolds, got a D-max clutch fan for it (from ssdiesel supply), and backed the truck into its hole and pulled the front clip. For you guys east of the Rockies this should make you jealous. I unbolted everything with a 1/4 drive, 3/8 drive ratchet, hand wrenches, and a screwdriver. Had the bumper and clip off it in about an hour, to hour and a half. So the engine with everything on it needs to be sold. The power brake system needs to be sold and I need to pull the entire heater out of the truck. I'll cut a peice to cover and bolt up to the firewall to cover the heater holes, I'll install a cable driven throttle, and intall a full hydroboost system for the brakes. So here's the pics.
