Re: My 54 GMC Build

18 for the one tank I ran it. Probably could have got 22 if I wasn't flooring it everywhere

Re: My 54 GMC Build

I should have kept this truck. It sold again. I missed it on ebay in January. Love to see some pics of it out there somewhere

Do you know if the epoxy primer seals the rust like the stop-rust stuff that turns black?

Re: My 54 GMC Build

The converter works great on turning rust to iron oxide. Then spray epoxy primer on top of that. Every attempt should be made to sand the metal with a course grit to get the best bite of the epoxy into the metal. Metal etch works great to for bonding to bare metal and then epoxy over that.
