Re: "Rice Rocket'

Well, I fixed my speedo, New cable from USMCCHEVY fixed it! Got it lubed/installed yesterday, I tested it but it still didnt work (Turned out I wasnt going fast enough). So in a victory run I drove down the road and floored 1st and did a small burnout (wasnt REALLY trying, becaues I have nice tires and tires are $$$$$) Im going to find a junker set to roast though

And I got PIX!

Next:

Fix parking brake cable (Need LR cable)
Headlight relays
Misc other things

Last pic is my new backround

Re: "Rice Rocket'

Up to 6" snow comming our way tonite...ugh.

Probably no school tomorow, but they havent announced it yet. I picked up some 30Amp 5 prong relays today. Not really sure how to wire them in yet, but @ $1.38 each, I cant pass this mod up. Going to attempt it soon. (Have to read all the FAQs a few more times)

Still need a parking brake cable, anyone?

Oh and I also found a 67 and a 72 1 ton in a backyard by my gfs house, I stopped and knocked on the door but no answer,will go back until I get an answer. I want the 67 lol its swb step with great patina,

Re: "Rice Rocket'

Been selling misc items I have around. Need to know what the stock heads from a 72 350 4 bolt main outta a truck are worth? I replaced with vortecs. I gave the casting #'s to a local guy he is REAL INTERESTED.

993 is the last 3 digits. He wanted to know if they say 'made in mexico' which they dont.

I told him to make an offer. What're they worth? I dont wanna get screwed or anything?

No updates on the truck really. Just driving it. I cant keep it clean theres mud everywhere from driving on the mud covered road from the sawmill across the street. Its pretty bad. I guess I could get a picture lol.

Ready for spring. Calling for possibly the biggest snow this year for this upcomming week. WAHOO SNOW, right hubscrub

I've gotten from a 12 pack up to $150 for good cast iron heads. Just depends on how much the person wanted them and if I knew the person.

Re: "Rice Rocket'

Ima play it easy.

I just remembered that when I took everything to the machine shop to be hot tanked/magnafluxed I was GOING to redo these heads so the valves were pulled, THEN I changed my mind and went vortec. Wonder if he wants to know..

Ooo Its tempting to order my conversion axles then install my slots...lol and I can sell my 8 rally wheels/caps (2 5 lug on the front and 2 in the barn, 2 6 lugs on the rear with 2 in the barn) HAHA

Im ready to go junkyarding, And im going to quit posting BS and go to bed now I think
