Re: What did you do to your truck today?

Changed intake/exhaust manifold gaskets on the 235. Moved oil filter to back of manifold, now it's level and off of the front header.

Re: What did you do to your truck today?

Bent and installed fuel line from carb to pump (I found it very hard to bend the 3/8" powder coated stuff - went to the old galvanized and that helped). Might have been the guy trying to do the bending... Then ran 3/8" from pump to tank on the other end of things.

Pressed Power Steering pulley on, routed and clamped power steering hoses (78 1/2 ton to match box). Speedway bracket on the power steering pump since it's a 64 motor without holes in the heads for mounting brackets. Decent piece and reasonably easy to work into the mix on the cheap - name of the game on this truck - or should I say practical... maybe frugal.

Figured out belt lengths after 3 trips to N@P@... 52 1/8" to alternator and 37 1/8" to power steering.

fun fun - bob
