Progress

I pulled up the carpet in the burb and there are some lil standoffs that the inside front of the seats mount to. SO I just gotta cut them out and weld them into my truck.

I got some more parts in this week..


54mm Throttlebody..





88-98 Clear Cab lights..



Bedbolts and windshield rubber with chrome trim



Got the C/C Rear stripped down for the disk brakes and new gears and bearings..



I also got a 1/4" injector spacer and a new front wall for my bed, New tailgate lights, new fender lights and tail lights and new dully fender lights.

I also bought an edelbrock TBI intake and a few other things but no pic's of em. I'm not gonna put the intake on just year cause I don;t feel like pullin the dist. I'll put it on once I put the roller retrofit cam kit in it.

I'm gonna get the throttlebody changed out tomorrow and the gear vendor in and driveshaft shortene.Get the interior back in the cab and the seats fully bolted and yada yada. I should have the rearend built sunday and ready to go in.

sounds like you are moving along pretty good... its gonna look great

wish brakecalipers youre going to use ?

i've read up on the subject and 76/78 cadilac eldorado rear brakecalipers fit the K30 disks and have a emergency brake as whell the original brakecable from chevrolet fit but needs some sort of bush to shorten the insidecable a little
heres a link where you can buy the complete kit

Well today was a pretty good day. I got the Tranny cooler installed, the Gearvendor installed, drive shaft shortened and installed, the spedo extension installed, the front seat brackets cut out of the burb and welded into the dually, the front seats bolted in, the rear door panels installed, got all the doors plugged in, got the 54mm throttlebody installed, the Injector spacer installed and got my disk brake brackets machined to fit. Tomorrow I gotta get the remote oil filter installed, the rearend built and disk brakes installed and then maybe just maybe the rear end under it.... Busy busy busy... I'm hoping to get the truck painted tuesday or wednesday. So maybe just maybe I can get it all back together or close before the weekend gets here. I'm soooooo ready to drive this biotch.

yea hurry up and get that thing done I wasnt to see it

Well bring your ass down here and help matt.. I'm goin as fast as a one man team can. lol

You're gonna paint it before you slam it?

done yet

Yeah but I'm just gonna put Kustom Shop Hot Rod Flatz on it.. THe Daytona blue pearl. I paint for a living so putting a real paint job on it later is no big deal.




Well I got the remote oil filter on it today as well as serviced my tranny ( new filter and fluid). Got the gear vendor wired and got some more nick nack crap done then worked on my rearend some more. This disk brake kit doesn't fit this rear end right and it needs new gears so F it till i get back from cali! lol
