Update...ordered the new cam from Allen this week :hail:
And no, you can't have the specs!!
Freshened up covers should be back next week too, so hopefully I can start building her back up.

Ooooo....secret cam. LOL
great truck, thats exactly what i want to do with my 67, so who is doing your wiring?
Did you use your senor discount at Allens?
SC, have you received any more parts via UPS?
SC is down and out for the count. He is so sick we should not even talk to him via the Internet, it's extremely contagious!!!
Nelson Performance is doing the wiring harness and yes he has received a few more parts.
Kurt is right.
Kamikaze - Your truck looks nice! And yes, Nelson Performance will be making a custom harness for it.
Gas - Yes sir ;)
Ricky - I am not Mexican, but you can call me Senor. As far as my SENIOR discount, yes I do!
Hopefully the new valley plate and valve covers will show up tomorrow. Daniel is working his magic on them right now. Electric fans are here too. Wood bed is gone, and fuel cell is mocked up in the place of the spare tire. I painted the new rear wheels and had the ET Streets mounted. I will need to cut the inside of the wheel well, but I knew that. They fit with the stock ride height, but will hit when I drop it. I hope to get the cam swapped and valvetrain upgraded this weekend. KURT???
Here are today's arrivals:

He's alive... and just infected us all! I'll come over if it's safe without having to wear one of these (see below). After we get done working on yours, I need to finish my N20 install.
He's been a Nelson Performance customer for so long Ricky I think Allen is paying him to let him do the harness and Jon just enjoys building harnesses so much!:LOL:

I hope your fpr turns out better than mine. I have put a little less than 11,000 miles on my setup and now it is making a terrible noise when I get to 3/4 of a tank. I think I might have to rebuild it with a new diaphragm kit.
Well, thanks to Kurt the new secret cam is in.
Also got these back from Daniel today :rock: Kickass work Daniel!!!

Nice work, I am thinking of painting my covers in stainless steel....
awww baby blue..
Finally an update. After much debate, I decided to replace the factory oil pump with a TSP P&P LS6 pump. That took 2 weeks because I kept cutting the oring. :doofus:
Also upgraded the timing chain to a new LS2 chain, new knock sensors, 918's w/ TI retainers. New wiring harness, computer & 60lb injectors should be here before Christmas, as well as all the AN fittings for the fuel system. Stall should be here too.

No plans to paint them right now. I want to get her on the road first.
OH YEAH, Santa dropped by:

Thanks! Drop that by my house ASAP. You have more invested in your fuel system than you do in your truck!Quote:

Hose isn't sexy like those bagillion dollar fittings.Quote:

I am not sure on the pump/filter setup. I have a 90* fitting on the way to see if I like that better (angle the filter toward the cell).
Looking great!!!
+2 on the 90, i think it would look better
Love the valve covers!, Did you have those painted or does someone actually produce those?
Going to have to support the filters somehow. You don't want them to crack at a connection. I think I'd put some 90s on the fuel rail going to the pressure regulator. Looking good. :thumb:
Or some 180*s and mount it on the fuel pump brackets.Quote:
