Jfwy Grippy.... Lookin Really Good

 

naaaa, I would like some 7,000rpm D/S's and some D/S hoops though.

it's all good bro, I see your feeling kinda froggy today.....I got two words for ya....lilly...pad

 

I'm headed out to breakfast, camera batteries are charging, all the bolts that are needed to assemble the Radix 122HH assembly are here(see pic below).
I was able to source all the bolts except five from ARP through my good friend Richard(WCCH). For those last five I'm going to send them out to get chromed so they look somewhat like they belong
It's really cool to see my dis-assembly bags of bolts/small parts collection dwindling down to seven or so.

Here's my collection of ARP Bolts I'm going to use to assemble the Radix/122 kit:

 

Looking good

 

Looks Great Brother!!!

 

i'll be honest, thats probably more than i make in 2 weeks worth of bolts

 

Yeah those things are expensive, I have atleast 200 just in stainless 12 point ARPs and the sad thing is thats not even half of all the ones I need

 

lots of parts for one assembly



making sure all gasketing surfaces are clean and oil free:


test fitting the blower head unit, adapter plate, upper intake manifold:

 

Better hurry up and get it together before teh evening sun starts shining in your garage.

My garage turns into a sauna from about 3pm till 7pm due to the evening sun

 

Grippy,
I don't know if you've considered this or not, but with all of your great documentary pictures and the depth of your explanations as to why you did or didn't do various things, I think that you have the makings of a book on modifying/customizing a Gen III Truck. This thread needs to be archived and accessible for years to come as a bare minimum here at performancetrucks.net.

Keep up the good work!

All my best,

Steve
