GOT ME SOME BB Stttuufff!!!!

FINALLY picked up the brackets and pulleys I've been looking for!!!! - also got the shroud - it didn't fit in the truck it was in (or at least it didn't look like it did).... can anyone tell me if it is a 67-72 shroud? I just can't tell from any pics I can find...

Re: GOT ME SOME BB Stttuufff!!!!

The shroud is correct for a pre '72 bb truck. The pulleys and brackets look like the '73-'87 LONG water pump style. The pre '72 had a SHORT water pump.

The shroud looks to be a 73 and up big block shroud

Hey luvlegs.....

Awesome man....glad you were able to get those BB parts you needed soooo bad, but didn't want to pay $600 for them, I'm sure this was a MUCH better deal!!!!!!!

Re: GOT ME SOME BB Stttuufff!!!!

My block is a 73, and the donor was a long water pump - Looks like I got 1 vote for pre73 and one vote for post 72 on the shroud... anymore? Got all the stuff for less than 1/4 what the last guy wanted.

Engine :
454 bored .030 over
Keith Black KB203 Hyperutectic Pistons with 12cc Dome
Comp Cams Valve Springs with new retainers
Oval Heads were shaved just to true up and a valve job
Stock Crank turned .010 (I think)
New cam bearings and freeze plugs
High volume oil pump
Mallory oil pump shaft

Yet to go on:
Timing Chain Set - Double Roller w/ Torrington Bearing
Chromemoly Pushrods
Roller Rocker Arms
Comp Cams Magnun 286 cam
Hi-Rev Lifters
Edelbrock Performer RPM Air Gap Manifold
Holley 750 CFM Dual Line Double Pumper

As for pics, here's as far as I've made it...

Down South Truckin is correct. I was wrong. I should have looked before I spoke.

Re: GOT ME SOME BB Stttuufff!!!!

ah hah - now I can see the difference. Well, it was kinda like a lottery ticket - got to dream for a bit.. I might just try to "modify" it a bit and see what I can't make it look nice... that'll be several months from now most likely though... Thanks guys.
