    Exhaust manifold

    I would try one off a Camaro or GTO. I have them on my 78 and there is a lot of clearance and pointing in the right direction. Others fit too, I just not sure on which ones.

    Crew cab worth fixing?

    I would probably trash it myself, but I say that because I don't need it. Hell, I fixed this 68 cab a couple years ago. About 30 people had come to look at this motorhome for sale and passed because the cab (back) was so bad. I saw a lemon and knew I could make lemonade out of it. So it boils...

    What have you done to your square lately??

    Pulled the truck into backyard so the bed (on body dolly) could come inside for some love. We stripped the bedsides and found one horrible repair the will need a lower patch panel behind the wheelwell. Cut out the round fuel filler holes and welded in square patch panels about 4.5 X 4.5 inches...

    6/7 drop tire size?

    I def. plan to run at least an 18" wheel (probably 20") up front, with 20" or 22" in the rear. But, I say this as a "REMOTE POSSIBILITY", I don't see any reason I could not roll with the 15" wheels it came with if I wanted to. By C-Notching the front frame, and "Raising" the crossmember, that...

    Need help with engine bay wiring

    My electrical guy (who had moved) told me to "take one wire only and route it, fix it, or replace it". Then go to wire #2. repeat. Tie each wire together in as you run them with a couple wraps every so of the of electrical tape so they stay the same length, then as the "branch off", route them...

    Slicks

    Get a flat piece of 1/4 X 1" X24" long mild steel at Home Depot or wherever. Drill two holes of the end so it bolts onto your lugs. At the far end drill a hole 3/8". in this hole put a 12" piece of all thread with a washer and nut on each side. You can adjust the all thread in or out to see...
