I watched one of those trucks that was a long bed 2wd small block half ton with plenty of rust sell this weekend for 3000.
It was parked on Friday night with a for sale sign in it for 3000 and sold for that Saturday morning. |

Truck went back on the dyno tonight, the only thing I changed from the original build was of course rebuilding the motor, and a cam and valvesprings change. I might have said before the 228r made 320/328 something like that.. all we could find in the dyno was 308/309 so i dont know where I got the number from..
So I went from the comp cams 228r - 228/228 112 .588 .588 on PAC beehives to the Tick Performance street heat stage 3 - 234/239 112+2 .615 .610 ... The tick came made right at the same tq, even though it peaked a little sooner int he curve, but it picked up horsepower ALL THE WAY across the powerband. The 228r made peak power about 5300, while the Tick cam made MORE power at 5300 and kept on climbing.. at peak once we got it dialed in it came in nearly a wopping FIFTY whp higher than the 228r. Unfortunately it was pulling timing there so we backed it down a bit and settled for about 30 more whp on a safer timing so I could run 89 octane and be done with it. Really an INSANE upgrade in cam. I know people talk about duration and lift and all that, but I think in this case it was just the lobe design. (Ticks cams are cut by Cam Motion) Technically a bigger cam should make less power down low and pull higher up top, and it definitely has way more top end, but the surprising part is carrying more power across the powerband, and it really started gaining around 4200 RPM. SUPER HAPPY with this cam. Makes me want to switch the TA cam~ |

Who do you guys have in the KC Metro area for detailing & polishing? Looking for someone who is most economical, but does a good job.
Live in Shawnee, don't really want to go more than 30 minutes. Looking to get interior detailed, get the exterior polished to close to a mirror finish, the rubber black piece under my rocker shined, and chrome around window area shined. |

Good question.
There is a place where the front spring perch mounts on the drivers side that needs to be patched. It had kind of a pocket where the cross member, emergency brake bracket and the spring perch created a pocket that held dirt and moisture. I am going to cut the rivets for the spring perch out and weld in a section on the inside, top and bottom of the frame rail in that area. Be good as new, I hope. |

I recently realized I am not happy unless I am building something. The fishing boat is gone and replaced by a lift, plasma cutter and media blast cabinet. |
