Senior here trying to get mine done by the end of May. Kinda ambitious but if she's drivable and not yet quite legal....I'll take all of the back roads to school

Here's where I'm at as of today. My thread's in the signature.

**longblue72** · 03-03-2011, 08:25 PM

Wont be making to much process nowadays cause of baseball starting up and it being every day til 6, but ill get done what i can!

**americanmusc1e** · 03-04-2011, 01:18 AM

some good lookin trucks on here......

I drove mine everyday in high school and applaud you youngsters that do the same........

I still drive mine to college sometimes, but I have a daily driver that saves me gas (witch gives me more money for the toys)

mines about to get a paintjob.... new tranny.... new exhaust (1 5/8 headers, 2 1/2" with x-pipe and hooker aerochambers to replace the 1 1/2 headers, 2 1/4 pipes and glasspacks that are on it now).... bigger carb.......

then I'm shooting for mid 13's in a 2+ ton beast....

oldblue1968chevy · 03-07-2011, 08:53 AM

hey americanmuscle, what cam you runnin on the 383?

**americanmusc1e** · 03-07-2011, 01:11 PM

comp XE 268 hydraulic flat tappet
http://www.compcams.com/Company/CC/c...x?csid=86&sb=2

its not that big.... it feels almost like the Comp XE262 did in my old 350
it runs real strong from 2500-5000rpm

I want to throw in a bigger (roller) cam, but I know my money is better spent on aluminum heads.... but first I need to get my transmission fixed and add a converter ......then I need a new exhaust.... then I'm gonna throw on a Holley Vacuum secondary 750 to replace the 600 I'm running now..... then heads... then cam (around 290 advertised duration roller is what I'm gonna do)

oldblue1968chevy · 03-07-2011, 03:08 PM

I went thumper 279, But heard id make better power with the xe268. I have the same setup but a 355 with 'summit/dart' vortec heads

Moskau · 03-30-2011, 08:43 PM

Just grad'd last year but I did get the chance to drive it for half of grade 11, and half of grade 12, just waiting to take it out again this spring for the 3rd year for university

It's a classic and I love to see when young people like me drive classic vehicles. It's always a good feeling to get the thumbs up from other drivers when you drive downtown.

turner16 · 03-30-2011, 08:50 PM

you are right, my son a first year at U of Guelph is hoping to drive mine. I gave him my 89 Buick and he loves that, wants to paint it flat black.

Love your yellow truck
Not as much as mine but close!

**americanmusc1e** · 08-06-2011, 03:49 PM

BUMP!!.. for more HS people

this is still one of my favorite threads on this board...

I'm still driving mine in college... but I have a DD now to save on gas...

mine is down right now getting a transmission swap...... but it will soon live again

oldblue1968chevy · 08-06-2011, 03:53 PM

Well i just bought a 71 GMC 2500 today for my first vehicle. It's a solid old truck but it needs reassembled. The previous owner had started to redo it and then quit. Hopefully i can get it done and maybe drive it for part of my senior year. I'll try to get a few pics of the ol basket case sometime soon.

oldblue1968chevy · 09-15-2011, 08:51 PM
