Re: PO has me PO'd
Jaros, I saw on another thread where you were looking for a set of valve covers w/ PCV hole, check out post #2 in this thread:
http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...d.php?t=308546 Can you use those as a pattern? The single hole side was where the PCV was, there was a rubber grommet in place. Let me know if I need to get some measurements, or ship these to you for use as a pattern.

Re: PO has me PO'd
After I saw 5150's in flat red, that sold me, but I needed a color that would go with my original Dark metallic green dash...still toying with the idea of a two tone, with '67 molding then the body color would be green with a gunmetal insert
Plus Flat White hides a lot of body dents Let's see, 24 January 2009 Kurt didn't know something...That date will live on in infamy LOL...You've forgotten more than I know

Re: PO has me PO'd
Woke up a 3:30 AM, so I decided to head to the workshop...wires fit better thru the motormounts if you remove boot, per Accel- silicone spray. Finally got the rite set of wires, 3 attempts and had to buy locking boots separate
Waiting for the almost identical twin '68 to show up, Special K said how to identify OEM fender was by the crimping, should go to paint n/w M&H has my engine harness to modify, electric choke, PS Alt. w/si connectors, tach harness

Re: PO has me PO'd
Original boots were red, changing out for orange. Didn't put them on yet b/c I may have to shorten wires and recrimp
Dang, you guys don't miss much...lol

Re: PO has me PO'd
Did you get the new shortblock in there? It is looking sweet. I love the VC but worried about the PCV valve did you get that sorted out? Looking good, LMK how the covers go on the utilities, I have a set and wondered about going with a highlander insert to get the look right, but not be like all the other blazer buckets?

Seats, another good question...looking how this pattern is designed it is a cheap imitation of rolled and pleated with a perforated design. I would like to have them made to function correctly...breathable, stitched in rolled and pleated. If I find the OEM fabric that could change...any ideas?, I'd like to hear them Dayum, just got me a 20" moniter....what a difference, Ima different color blue. I feel like I'm sitting in the first row of the movie house

That is some CLEAN routing on the wires. I need to investigate some routing like that, as I HATE having wires hanging all over the place.

Re: PO has me PO'd
I have found highlander material as well as houndstooth, not sure where the samples are that I got, but I'll try to find them. I am guessing with the material, I can just have a vinyl surround made up, they will resemble OE, but they will not have the scoll in them, but I don't think there are a lot of choices for the utility buckets.
