Earth to Joe, Come in Joe !!! Wassup with the 63??? I'm curious about the transmission and how it works??? Need any adjustments??? Shifting late or early???
Sorry hot rod been off a few days - no test drive yet on the 63-i need two new front tires(just got two new back ones-im going with firehawk 255 60 15 all around) and to fix oil leak on front of the oil pan/timing cover-looks like i might have a slite over heating issue to deal with i have a 160 hi flow and a electric fan-going to switch to just a regular 180 and that should do the trick iv drove it up and down the block alittle but nothing major like on the hi way-i will let ya know how it does but no tranny leaks thus far and seems to shift hard around 3000rpm-cant get going to fast up and down the block... Iv traded the 70 c10 for a 78 nova i beleive its a rally nova-it has a 383 runs and drives good just needs alittle here an there----man i wanna get to the 454-i found out you was right about the 454 spanking the 350---that 75 gmc 3/4 heavy duty camper special fully loaded had to weigh somewhere around 5000lbs and that 454 i pulled out of it had at least 240hp and by putting it in the nova that weighs 3500lbs with me in it-will make it seem like that 240hp 454 has almost 400hp and thats just stock before any mods. Iv been tinkering with the nova lately just making some carb adjustments...and just starting an letting run the 63 :cheers:
