Not much progress on this build right now due to weather (see pictures) but I did score a drivetrain donor vehicle today. I got a 89 chevy dually with a 454 and turbo 400 tranny for a grand. I did have a small block and turbo 350 drivetrain I got when I bought my truck but it ended up being seized so it has worked good as a mock up piece.

Truck looks good. I've never seen that much snow in my life. HB

Finally got some good weather and some time and got a couple of things taken care of. I had to remount my rear coil overs higher because the back was too high so I made some new shock mounts. I also removed the small block and tranny to make way for the 454 and turbo 400 I got. I also removed the motor mount plates so I can move the motor forward an inch or so and down around 2 inches so I wont have a driveshaft tunnel in my floor. The brake master cyclinder and pedal are installed and I finished welding the floor supports.

 

[bob w]

You're doing really nice work. Can you tell me what spring rate the coil overs are?

 

[Burnout]

Bobw, you know I really don't know. They came with my speedway frame kit. Speedway has a lot of different coil overs, I think mine are the carrera ones.

Nice! A 454 in that light of a body should make for some serious fun!

 

[powerplant]

Looks like I won't be the only one with a IH / Chevy big block truck.

I like it!!

Snow is finally starting to melt and I got my donor truck home. Runs pretty good, not bad for a grand. Does good burnouts too.

I have built a 383ci stroker for my 38 D-30. It will have a 700r on the back.
IHC trucks rule the road

Been awhile for an update but have been busy. I have built and installed my body mounts, installed the big block, built a dash, and got a bunch of parts like a shifter, high rise and a 35 international grill. I also had an extra leaf put in my front spring because of the big block and it really helped. Hoping to get the floor done, steering in and a seat soon.

Nice!! Keep it up and keep us posted
