Re: 1966 C10 Project Truck

Hit an unfortunate stopping point with the exhaust manifolds last night. I can't run the factory truck manifolds because they hit the frame so I picked up the Hooker block hugger manifolds and apparently the driver side manifold hits my slave cylinder. Oh well, I'll either get that swapped out for an internal slave or a pull style slave. No biggie. I was able to re-thread the temperature sending unit for 3/8NPT so that and getting the manifolds installed was a plus

Rethreaded temp sender


Tightening the driver exhaust manifold, I heard a little pop and the manifold seated all the way to the head. Crawled under the truck to find that it doesn't want to play nice with the slave cylinder I had.


The manifolds look amazing though!
