'86 Crew Cab Project Update and Photos Part 3...

heath-
a suggestion.
you might want to brace/support the metal fuel line at where the mech pump used to go. I did a customer's like how you have yours and the line vibrated like a ***** when the motor was fired up.

What did you brace it to/with? Another rubber coated line clamp lower on the fuel line would probally keep it out of trouble wouldn't you think?

Quick question..... Anyone have an ISSPRO Turbo Temp Monitor they want to sell? I'm needing one for the project and I'm having a hard time finding one.

Also, I have a few parts that I don't need any longer and if anyone wants to buy them let me know:
-4x4 C6 with deep pan
-Oregon Performance Torque Converter (new in box, never installed).
-'83'-86 auto pedal assembly
-Mechanical fuel pump

Have other non-project parts too (like a diesel E4OD, and EFI 460), just ask.

Never mind on the above question. I think I have one lined up from a guy on PSN. New and a good price as well.

Rob, thanks for giving me the chance to enjoy this excellent crew cab IDI.

Heath

My pleasure. It couldn't have gone to a better home, obviously! I never would have done it justice the way you have.

Have fun. For now I'll continue enjoying my gas hog V10.

i tried get a pic of the bracket over the weekend. He didn't have time to stop by. in brief, i bent up some steel to bolt onto the fuel pump block-off plate and put a rubberized clamp on the other end. still moves a little but not as bad as being completely unsupported.

never mind on the pump I insatlled my new one today.

Thanks Calvin. I have an idea of what I want to do, but not sure where I'll mount it yet.

Again, thank Rob. I think you'd have done serious justice to the crew cab. Shoot a new 6.9 and a turbo would have been sweet!

No problem.

How much for the E4OD?
How much for the Oregon Performance Torque Converter ?
How much for the 4x4 C6 with deep pan?

Never really looked at prices on these transmissions before. How do these prices sound?
E4OD, 2x4, $350?
C6, 4x4, Leaks fluid but worked very well, $150?
Oregon Performance low stall C6 torque converter (new) $80?

Shoot Jason. That would have been awesome. The Duplicolor stuff is close, but not an exact match. You'll get a good look at the difference and the finished product at the rally. I would show you your firewall plate on the truck, but that will be hard to see. As you know it is hidden by lots of stuff.
