Post by: oldwhity on April 12, 2009, 07:46:43 pm: That's a pretty truck! I know in the pic of the engine I can see the upper rad hose. Is the rad relocated or is that just a reflection from something behind the grille in the top pic?

Post by: CoggedBelt75 on April 12, 2009, 09:47:13 pm: Factory location. The shiny spot is the over flow tank showing thru the hole for the old cold air hook-up. Guess I need to cover it sometime.

Title: Re: New member from Oklahoma
Post by: 85ChevyJRF on April 26, 2009, 10:59:41 pm: Thats probably the greatest everyday driver I have ever seen. I'd rather drive that than a brand new vette z06 that was sent off to Leighnfelter or however you spell it.
Title: Re: New member from Oklahoma
Post by: Stroker 79 on April 27, 2009, 04:04:35 pm: Joe,

As a daily driver what kind of boost are you running around town (5-8psi or 8-10psi...something like that)? And for fun, have you ever taken it to the track just for kicks??

Thanks, but you might want to rethink that. ;D

Stroker79...10 lbs on 92 octane. No, haven't been to the track yet. All my buds are pushing me to go tho. Maybe this fall will try the track just to see what she can do, but for now getting ready for shows and cruise-ins. Watched two nice trucks at the track get torn up over the weekend. Just not something I'm wanting to do to mine. The wife and I are content pounding the streets and highways during our "mellowing years". ;D

Post by: 78 Chevyrado on April 27, 2009, 08:19:11 pm: Welcome. If thats your daily driver, I wanna see your weekend hotrod! ;D
Title: Re: New member from Oklahoma
Post by: CoggedBelt75 on April 27, 2009, 08:20:20 pm: Yeah. but I don't play. Street racing isn't too cool. But, if I were younger..... ;)

She double duties. ;)
Title: Re: New member from Oklahoma
Post by: 85ChevyJRF on April 27, 2009, 09:45:19 pm: Personally I wouldn't rethink that cause I'm a bigger fan of a truck like that than a vette for some reason. They have always caught my eye more than anything else. Well I take that back I am only 19 so a lot of girls do ;)
