Last night, I adjusted the timing, finished tuning the carb, fixed a minor radiator leak and cleaned out my EGR valve, installing a new gasket in the process. She runs great, first turn of the key and she fires right up. Next up is brakes, then tranny fluid / filter, then driveshaft, then drive her!
Cleaned sanded the bottom of trunk lid. Primed the inside (bottom) of trunk.
Skimmed the front valance and primed along with header panel.
Front valance, header panel and trunk ready for sealer tomorrow.
Drove it to work today. Didnt have tail lights, dash or dome lamps. Checked the fuses at noon. Fuse just needed to be removed and replaced and all was good. I like easy fixes.
Started putting the frong grill back on the Bee and getting the lights working. Ordered a new headliner and insulation from Legendary Auto, so when I get that put in it is time for the windows.
Started welding in some patches in the drivers floor pan. welder gave us a fit but i LOVE my plasma cutter. I made the next 2 patches so they will get welded in tomorrow
lets see, changed the 650 edlebrock carb to a Holley double pumper no choke, jetted it , tuned it ,,test drove it...found front right wheel wobble, problem was the idler arm was no bueno so replaced that and while i was at it i replaced the right side spindle new hub/Rotor new bearings...test drove horrible squeeling until break are applied im assuming from not putting on fresh pads? :icon_hang: pulled in garage gave up for the night
Made a big patch for my driver side floor. Welded it in and started grinding the 3 patches i have in. I have 2 more small ones to make but they dont affect installing the engine. Hopefully i can get it in tomorrow because we have a 454 head to pull next. We cant put it off any longer than wed. so we can get my buddies dads suburban back on the road
