Truck: 1979 Chevy ShortWide

on it's way back together after a four year rebuild (should have NEVER taken this long!)

Thanks for signing up J. I hope that we can get into some more of the EFI-conversion SBC-type stuff. I know you can't wait to get that thing together...it's gonna be sick! :drool:

Let me know, I'll contribute what I can...Ryan and I talked for awhile last week about the set-up I'm looking at...he seemed pretty impressed I would be getting everything for under $3K.

I'm REALLY wanting to get it done...it's been FAR too long in the making.

that is one SSSIIICCCKKKK truck you have! and welcome to the site!

You should see it up close!!! I havent had the privelage to see it with the wheels on, but I've sen em both seperatly. Jason's takinghis time and doing it right, its gonna be magazine material for sure. :hail:

you are too kind. Thanks for the props, but I'm not sure about mag material or not. I know I'm pretty proud that it's been built about 95% out of my garage. (only thing not done at the house was the actual BC/CC paint...even the primer/sealer was done in the driveway). Once it's one the road I'll owe ALOT of people a ride.....there has been alot of the labor on this truck paid for with beer/pizza!!

:chug:

Beautiful truck, and very nice work. I want to get my hands on a classic body style sometime in the near future.

I need to get over there, its been a while since I have seen it with the steam rollers on it.

Is yours back on the road yet?

Don't worry...I'll be callin' when it's time to put the calipers back on... :bang:

Yea I got the Oil psi gauge finally hooked fixed, and got the wideband hooked up and running...it runs soooo rich.

I let you get it first..theres a few Dakota guys running that, but not many. In the "dakota" world I have not heard enough praise about it to get it.

Crush, you might be interested in this web site, Brad showed it to me.

I just found that site yesterday...GOOD info so far.

The only way I'll run the SMT6 is if I end up getting the sytem through the guy I posted before. They "pre-configure" it to my set-up and offer lifetime support.

So you're going "there" huh?! :(
