Farmer Joe Posted December 3, 2010 Author Report Share Posted December 3, 2010 Damm that GMC is low :lol: Are you running the stock lugs ? If so it'll be ok for awhile but youll have more piece of mind with conical seat seat lugs. mark you got a picture of what those look like? ive had the back ones on for a week now and the lugs are still tight as i made em.

Farmer Joe Posted December 22, 2010 Author Report Share Posted December 22, 2010 bought an offy intake for it today. its in really good shape. got it from sick620. unfortunatly i cant get it on the truck right now tho. with the way this intake is setup it requires the carb have the primary barrel closer to the engine. so this motorcraft is backward and id have run it with the carb turned around. so im lookin for that weber model that will work with this intake. so if anyone here local has an extra weber layin around hit me up. anyways, thats pretty much it for now...

Pacific coast Datsun Posted December 22, 2010 Report Share Posted December 22, 2010 Kool intake. While your searching for a Weber youll have time to polish it out :D Quote Link to comment
deadmonkey Posted December 23, 2010 Report Share Posted December 23, 2010 I can sand blast it if you need but it looks kinda clean. I wouldn't waste time polishing it :) too many little crevises to get into. At most I would paint it to look sort of polished. Dumb question. Are you using your phone camera for all these pictures? They are always blue. I'm wondering if you have one of the picture effects on like sepia tone or blue in this case? Quote Link to comment
Farmer Joe Posted December 23, 2010 Author Report Share Posted December 23, 2010 yeah im using my cellphone camera... it used to take alot better pictures, but now it does that blue thing for some reason.. anyways, hey i might hit you up on that sandblasting. i gotta soak the gasket surfaces to get the old gasket off. but when i get that done ill see if we can setup a time where i could do that. ill even buy a bag of sand or media or whatever.

izzo Posted December 23, 2010 Report Share Posted December 23, 2010 lol, my old cellphone used to do that. shitty sensors and lighting/color detection. now my droid does pretty good, cept low light, works fine in dark, or light, but low light is shit Quote Link to comment

deadmonkey Posted December 28, 2010 Report Share Posted December 28, 2010 i keep forgetting about something we talked about a while back... I think what we were talking about was that bag of jets you had lying around that I could sift through to get my weber jetted correctly I think. Either that or we were talking about me getting a new weber and you buying mine...but that is not gonna happen right now or ever really :) I do have the stock however. Quote Link to comment
Farmer Joe Posted December 28, 2010 Author Report Share Posted December 28, 2010 oh yeah those jets! lol im looking at em on the desk here right now. yeah ill have to bring that by one of these day i dont have to work. Quote Link to comment
