Re: LFD's low buck truck build!
Sweet now that makes sence and no I do not have a resister in my system yet! Another 55min until the part store opens;) I will pick one up and add a small write up to this after I get it hooked up. Thanks again, I knew it had to be me and the 140amp alts must just need this more than the 124amps do?

Re: LFD's low buck truck build!
Ok my resister is comming in tonight so I can get it all squared away. Then I will clean things up a bit for our local (first Tuesday of the month) car show were they shut down mainstreet and it is nothing but cars. Then next weekend is a big show in Woodland on Sunday and on Saturday night their is a big Pot Luck at the president of the car shows house and that was a blast last year.
So here is a pic from last years car show. Boy things have changed a bit in a year. I took second place in the under construction class. http://i16.photobucket.com/albums/b2...n/2ndplace.jpg And two months ago! http://i16.photobucket.com/albums/b20/rokcrln/trip2.jpg Kevin LFD inc. |
Re: LFD's low buck truck build!
I know it is not very interesting but all the same it is needed work. Here is the part needed to keep the new alt alive when you do not have an idiot light and want your alt to last longer then the last 3 I put in lasted. I just cut off the tape that came around the diod and slpiced it into my exciter lead. I use cripm and solder conectors then sealed it up in shrink tube before wraping it back in to its loom and covering it up. Now lets hope this all works!
Keep in mind if all you want to do is replace your old external alt with a new hi amp internal alt then this is the harness to buy because all you do is plug it into your old alt plug and your new alt and call it done. http://i16.photobucket.com/albums/b20/rokcrln/alt1.jpg http://i16.photobucket.com/albums/b20/rokcrln/alt2.jpg http://i16.photobucket.com/albums/b20/rokcrln/alt3.jpg http://i16.photobucket.com/albums/b20/rokcrln/alt4.jpg http://i16.photobucket.com/albums/b20/rokcrln/alt5.jpg Kevin LFD Inc. |
Re: LFD's low buck truck build!
Are all of the LT1 belts ribbed on both sides? I don't remember them being that way but I could be wrong:D If not is there a special reason yours is?

Re: LFD's low buck truck build!
No just the Vett's were double ribbed. The power steering runs on the "back side" of the belt and I guess they needed a bit more traction. SO every pully, idler and tentioner are ribbed.

Re: LFD's low buck truck build!
Kevin,
The truck looks great! Did you ever finish the exhaust? I thought you wanted to put duals on it...i thought. Also, you are running sanderson headers, right? If so, how is the connection between the collecter and the exhaust pipe? Did you do something custom? David |

Re: LFD's low buck truck build!
Short connection flange? I didn't get a short connection flange...Did you use the stock exhaust setup? Better yet, is your exhaust stock from the short connection flange back?

Re: LFD's low buck truck build!

Re: LFD's low buck truck build!
Thanks guys this truck did turn out great from a driver stand point. It get looks every were I go but it is just not custom enough. So I have a new truck on the drawing board (and in the rear driveway) that will be our all out show truck for my company. I will be getting started on it in about a month and figure about 1000hrs for completion. The sad part for you guys is it is not a :chevy: But will be a bad A$$ custom all the same that I am sure even the pure die hard Chevy guys will like.

Re: LFD's low buck truck build!
Well almost 10,000 miles since the motor went in and I thought it was time to finish it up. So I made a quick gas filler cover so it can go to Line-X in the morning. I just took some tag board and made the shape I wanted and traced it out on 1018 AKDQ sheet steel. Then after some knee bending and a bit of shrinking on the top and bottom corners to fit just how I wanted it to and it was ready to screw in. I decided not to weld it just in the off chance it ever needs to come off. It should spray in like it was one piece. The Line-X will come up on the rail and stop just before the outer edge (right were the Blue tape is).
