Re: 68 project

Got all the plug wires run yesterday titanium boots installed. Slow tedious work might I add. Trying to figure out where to locate the msd box and coil now, I am thinking inside the cab behind the dash seeing the heater box is deleted now.

Re: 68 project

I'm guessing you did fuel injection? If so what kit did you use?

That sucks! Is your job moving from that shop?

You can get it done in that amount of time!

I work up the street from the truck shop. I highly doubt I can have it done by the end of September but am going to try to get as much as I can. Ordering the fuel injection this week where I can hopefully get it to the point it is mobile on its own, but, even that will be a challenge plus trying to plan to build a shop at home on top of that. Just a stepping stone

Nice! If/when I ever build a 350 for mine I want to go with a similar EFI setup. I'm really curious to see how you like it.

Re: 68 project

Very nice work on your truck! I eventually want to put EFI on my 354 in my 40 Ford. There are just too many other things it needs if I ever want to drive it before it is 80 though.

I'm on pins and needles about the FAST. I'm considering it for my 67 GMC and/or 65 Malibu. Good luck you have our backing!

Re: 68 project

Some new toys came in today, gotta love Summit Racing and how quick they get things shipped to you. The FAST system came in today along with my Meziere water pump and my AN fitting waterneck.. I feel another chapter coming to the end.
