If you have a radiator shop close to you, you could hot tank it.

Not as fast as I want. Working a ton of overtime at work, so that's been me keeping away from the project.

Got the engine mounted to the frame, but I'm having issues with the oil pan hitting the rack and pinion, even with the trans tail at 6 degrees. Nate built me truss tabs with engine mount points 1/4" higher than normal and this didn't resolve the problem.

Nate is going to call me tonight to try and help resolve it. But, I was curious if anyone else has run into this problem?

Re: Project Roxy
 

lookin good

Re: Project Roxy
 

could you tell me about the deeper offset black wheels you have in the picture, i have 11 different 5 on 5 origionals and i believe 2 of them are the deeper kind, does any one know how or what caused them to make these and what are the actual size?

Re: Project Roxy

Re: Project Roxy
 

The black wheels are 15x8 six lug wheels with 4" backspacking.

Re: Project Roxy
 

As far as I know they are 283/327 valve covers. I know they came from an engine with the oil filler tube on the intake manifold. Member Delmo, welded the bungs in for me so I could put a oil cap and a pvc valve in them

Re: Project Roxy
 

Nice progress... keep going... I know about working overtime so that you can turn around and spen dit on the truck..

True

Re: Project Roxy
 

does delmo sell those valve covers?

Re: Project Roxy
 

Yes, he does.. Just send him a message here and he will get back to you.
