Good to know. I couldn't go this year but when I was thinking I could I wanted to bring my big Lab, "Sooner". It's really HIS truck anyway....at least he thinks so! Here he is a couple years ago.\:



Here he is napping with his head on my lap in my OT '08 3500 dually truck:

I have not seen my name in print so much since I was wanted in 12 states for a crime that I did not commit. LOL
Sorry again, Andy is right he hit me up so quick and left. Then in front of my truck I was not thinking. Apologies to both of you. But the tri 5 guys and first series trucks are invited to the San Diego Cruise on July 20. Maybe that will make up for the lack of introductions.

Kabwe, I didn't see you at the show will catch you at the next one. Bros crew put on a great Chevy/GMC truck show. Few pics from the Bros Truck Show NorCal to SoCal 700 mile C10 road trip.

Re: Pics from the Brothers Truck Show

Man, only 1 show a year around this area (without driving 100 miles or so).. makes me want to move back to SOCAL. (I'd be single if I did though)

I actually saw your truck and looked for you to say hello but you were no where to be found. I guess you were making the rounds checking out the trucks. Sorry I missed you buddy.\
Here the shot I took of your truck.

Re: Pics from the Brothers Truck Show

Harvey, your truck and mine have a little in common: I'm running old school running gear too: a rumpety-rump idling 283 w/ TH350 and Camaro rear end.

I keep debating IFS vs. dropped axle with myself. I'm back & forth mostly because of cost but also it's a "slippery slope". If I go ifs I'll need a column, then power steering pump - BUT I've got early camel hump heads w/no holes, so the cost of specialty brackets...and "while I'm there" may as well get the brackets for an AC compressor, yada, yada...maybe you can relate!

I useto have a rumpety-rump 283 in my truck thanks to a big Isky cam. Have you thought about taking the serpentine system off a camaro or truck, will that work for you? Just a thought

Re: Pics from the Brothers Truck Show

Never even considered it. No holes in my heads (the ENGINE's, I know what you were thinking! Lol). I've got the old camel hump heads so I just assumed pretty much nothing later factory will fit on it.

I don't even know what cam is in it. The old man original owner had "a kid" rebuild the engine and he didn't like how it came out - too radical for him. It doesn't develop enough vacuum to be able to run a master cylinder booster. I'd like to substitute a milder cam; Ive read a Comp Cams 268 is a nice one for it that will still give me vacuum but I don't trust myself to do it without messing up.

You can do just take your time. Im going to change the cam in my truck soon. Watch me screw it up. LOL!! After looking, I dont think the serpentine set up will work either. I have to look, but I think it bolted to the head and water pump.

Re: Pics from the Brothers Truck Show

I agree with VDOG that you can do the cam change. The SBC is pretty straight forward to work on.
