I've got some money...... - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Hotrod70C10 · 06-27-2003, 02:03 PM

I'm stuck between a few things I want to do. Here's my list:
1. ECE 6 lug disc brake / drop spindle kit
2. Vintage air a/c kit
3. new rings and bearings, vortec heads, edelbrock and a new intake for the vortec's
What do you guys think?

**nightmare** · 06-27-2003, 02:09 PM

A/C!!!!

Gene · 06-27-2003, 02:23 PM

If its as hot in Moore as it is in Muskogee today i'd say A/C fo sho!!!

krue · 06-27-2003, 02:36 PM

A/C for sho!

Longhorn Man · 06-27-2003, 03:15 PM

Motor work.
A/C won't get you to work on monday.
If it is not a daily driver...I'd still go for the engine. (spoken like a true gear head)

I agree, engine

These truck's aren't too bad on the ventilation. Just open the windows, kick panel vents, and wing windows all the way, and i usually manage to stay halfway cool during the summer.

Smooth68 · 06-27-2003, 05:33 PM

Go with the engine - If you get it running right you can use the 255 A/C -

I say get the engine right,its a amazing how motivated you become when you have something that actually moves on its own power.
