Nice job on the fuel fill.

Can't tell from your pics if you have a pcv or not? if not, or if its' bad then it leads to pressure buildup and it can look like it's "steaming" Also, Maybe leaking from valve covers onto the headers?

Nice work kev.

Thanks fellas

I do have a pc valve..its brand new and runs to the front of the carb. Not sure if thats where its supposed to go...?

I dont see any oil spilling out anywhere. It doesnt look like the typical "oil leaking dripping on something hot" smoke...just like foggy looking smoke sort of. I can see it in the carb too...ill try to take a pic tomorrow

laid67 · 07-02-2014, 03:48 PM

For real.

**kev2809** · 07-05-2014, 02:24 PM

lol...i still have the truck and been doing cleanup on it really...tidy things up. i got burnt out a few times on it which is why no updates. im going to try to get some glass in it and finally get the damn hood on so i can get it tagged and insuranced and enjoy it some day...

**kev2809** · 01-18-2015, 05:59 PM

Wow...it's been a while

finally motivated to get back to work on it again, no progress since the summer. Fired it up today, drove it a few feet and back into the driveway.

Hope you guys stay tuned..

Man you were making amazing progress!! Let's get it going again! I'm hoping to get started on mine soon...

Burb · 04-22-2018, 05:36 PM

...kinda reminds me of me some years back

Life happens other vehicles come and go...,but you keep hanging on to it
Kevin will come back around...he still has the burban bug

**kev2809** · 05-30-2018, 08:42 PM

still have it but no progress

trust me..this thing aint goin anywhere, ill be buried in this thing.

i been going through some parts i have stashed and trying to figure out what i need to do next. batteries dead and some wiring needs updated. ima work on getting the rear seats finished, frame the back end and hopefully start getting stuff back together.

long road but my goal is to be cruising by next summer.

i started a dump truck business 3 yrs ago and it seems i have something to do every day! but well see....

Burb · 06-04-2018, 01:10 PM

LOL Ya my kids were fighting over which one got what car when I died ...

Ya ... they love me

But I shut them down told them I was putting in my will that I be buried in the Burban doing something I have never done ... trailering my corvette behind it

So they get NADA ... lol keeps them from knocking me off

**kev2809** · 12-28-2019, 06:42 AM

for anyone still following along....since i left you guys hanging forever.....thats my motor donor truck i picked up from a buddys auction. 2000 yukon xl, does have a good amount of miles (230k?). drove it up and down the road about 70 mph and it seemed decent. havent brought it home yet (need to cut a small tree down where its going to be parked) but i did order my dirty dingo slider mounts and will start collecting parts for the ls swap.

going to try and get a video of my 305 running so i can rip it out and sell it so i can power wash and paint the frame and under motor stuff.

I'm pretty much the opposite. If I decide on something I hurry up and do it before I can change my mind....

... Well, except for the '70 short bed. I started it over 10 years ago, but I still haven't changed my mind on anything I planned on it.
