Re: New 64 Stepper Project
 

Hi, thank you. I havnt visited this lately. I'm playing around with which size trans cooler lines I should use either 3/8 or 5/16. I know the factory size in the day was 5/16 but I'm thinking maybe the 3/8 will be better. I'm going with a 200R4 and it uses 1/4npts threads on the cooler outlet and inlet and I found this Dorman 800-754 that I can use inverted flare for there and already have the radiator connection for the 3/8 tube inverted flare there.
Or I can go with AN6 hoses all the way.
Also thinking of buying a crimper to crimp ferrules for hose ends instead of the push on units. I can also use that for the power steering lines if I want.
Need ideas on mounting the trans cooler though.

Installed the Retrosund radio and it works well.

Master Chief, that is a beautiful truck! Outstanding work! Can't wait to see more pictures and see it finished.

Re: New 64 Stepper Project
 

Thank you. When I get home with my booty (from work) I can finish this project. :)

Re: New 64 Stepper Project
 

Looks great! Keep it up.

Bought the Exhaust Manifolds and Valve covers (chrome) plan to get the Mooneyes air cleaner and get it chromed. Have to clean up (smooth) the exhaust man before I get it jet hot cast iron gray.

Received the chrome hood hinges but I may send them back,one is pretty loose.

Re: New 64 Stepper Project
 

Purchased the Mooneyes Air Cleaner and had it sent to El Paso Plating direct. Should be there tomorrow afternoon.
Found a 17" Seven blade fan to mate up to a fan clutch clutch.

Re: New 64 Stepper Project
 

So the Mooneyes air cleaner was returned from El Paso Plating. They did the top and the bottom.

Re: New 64 Stepper Project
 

Looks great in the pictures...how does it look in person?

Re: New 64 Stepper Project
 

My wife loves it. I'm out of state working.
What really surprises me is that I bought this from California Car Cover on the 16th. They sent it to El Paso Plating who plated it and sent it home completed in that amount of time.

Re: New 64 Stepper Project
 

It does look really good!

That is super fast. I haven't had anything done yet, but I plan on using them also.

Re: New 64 Stepper Project
 

Can't wait to see that air cleaner installed! Bet your getting anxious yourself.

Re: New 64 Stepper Project
 

I did due to a recommendation I read on this site. So far so good. :)
That's a fact. I'll be home Christmas to fawn over my booty. :lol:
Should be at my $$ goal for the truck completion by then, but then I have to work probably another year out here to be set for a while. ;)

Re: New 64 Stepper Project
 

Another pic of the top. I like the cast aluminum, not billet. However I don't like to polish the stuff, so...

Re: New 64 Stepper Project
 

So I'm looking at the Hedman 69830's with 3/8" flanges. I see they have fit well on newer trucks, any comments on if they will be a problem on ours? - http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...d.php?t=353842

Re: New 64 Stepper Project
 

So I bought a pair of these and sent them home (still on the road). They are 5" or 5.25" long perfect for a key fob that wont scratch the dash.

Re: New 64 Stepper Project
 

While I was at home for Christmas I changed out my hood hinges and brake booster. Had to set the booster to master cylinder dimensions, but it all worked out.
