Separation In The St. Pete Garage So there's a little separation going on in the garage. I have a feeling that they will get back together very soon! With everything apart there is blood in the water and I'm going to attack this thing full force over that next few weeks...updates to...

Looks and sounds awesome! Congrats! -Troy

Bob, I'm very much looking forward to seeing this develop! [cl[cl[cl Bravo Captain...Bravo! -Troy

Sorry to hear that you're in a bind. It's hard to tell the value of rods like these or to even ball-park it. Too many different variables. I hope you don't have to sell it! -Troy

I used 1x1x1/8. Worked well and the struts that used are plenty strong...matter of fact I had to add some extra metal to counter balance some if it. -Troy

Thanks Rex! I did a little research on how to seal exterior wood...got a lot of recommendations for deck sealer, but then it struck me to look around for what people use when building wooden boats. This stuff seemed to be a standard for a lot of people. It wasn't cheap, but I was informed...

Not too much to report. Got the bed off and did a bunch of finish welding on it today. Should be able to finish that up tomorrow. Then I got some warping to hammer out. I also tacked on the bed rails. I think they turned out good. My friend came over to the shop today to help out with...

I looked at the Summit kit as well...read some of the same type of reviews. With the Speedway kit I can see where there might be a few issues, but workable to say the lease. I've done a "dry run" with the harness in my living room so I think I'll be able to figure out all the little nuances...

Thanks for the info Don...will send thoughts and prayers. -Troy

The one end is terminate in a fuse block...sorry for the confusion I should have added a picture of that as well. I'll put one up tonight when I get home. Couldn't agree with you more...the less amount of wire terminating the better! :D -Troy

Thanks Don...I know that's true for SBC & BBC, but wasn't sure if a BIG Old's would be effected or not. Looking good...keep us posted on the progress. -Troy

3am?! Wow I thought I stayed in the garage late!:D You guys are hard core.[cl Question for you Don, will the shorter tubes coming off the head effect the performance in any way? I don't know enough about Old's motors, but some other motors I do know would be effected. Just curious...thanks...

Will Do! Always Put's a Smile On My Face! :D Here is the link: http://www.speedwaymotors.com/Speedway-20-Circuit-Wiring-Harness,42872.html Will do Don...I was really suprised on the quality of the wires and all the bits and pieces. -Troy

I've been following your build and you've made some great progess. Don't make a hasty decision on something that you've put so much of yourself into. Only you can make the call, but you know that everyone on this board is pulling for you to keep it. Let us know if there something we can help...

Touche My Good Man! Touche! But please don't use the word "flame" while around Bill (Gastrick)...he might spontaneously combust! :D -Troy

You guys don't have a clue do you? Nothing can be done until we know what kind of socket said light bulb is going to screw into! Man if wasn't for me you guys would be lost! :rolleyes: :D:D:D:D -Troy

Are we talking Incandescent Light Bulbs or LEDs? Please give more details so we can help you. :D:D:D -Troy

Hey Bob that's looking real good! Question for you...is the 3 link rear triangulated in any way? Just curious because I used to help a guy setup suspensions like that in the 80's - 90's for tube chassis drag cars. -Troy

What about beer? Doesn't that fit in somewhere? -Troy

When I got home there was a box waiting for me from Speedway...I ordered the wiring harness on Friday...afternoon at that. So we're starting off this review with an A+ so far. The discount from Rebel Wire was tempting, but I went with Speedway for two main reasons...Price and the fact that...
