Hi, my names George, I am from Arizona, but the elevated part where it snows, which makes tuning at 5000 feet a little different. I have been through a few cars, a 67 Chevelle (sbc) and a series of 5.0's. A couple years ago I picked up a 79 Dodge D 150, cheap. Mostly because I need a truck. So my truck is my hot rod and I commute in my Honda. I found this site just searching one night and been reading for about 2 weeks. This is a great site. I have already re-thought and saved money! I really like some of the seat and safety featured posts.

I get it my truck isn't for everybody and I am not trying to kid or keep up with anyone as it weighs a lot. I am .030 over on a 360, Hedman headers, Proform distributor, Edelbrock intake, Lunati Voodoo Cam and Comp springs, shifting a 727. Oh, I have an RCI fuel cell in the bed. So you can see my 2wd doesn't fit in with anyone and figured I would throw in here. I do all my own work except machining.

Thanks for having me.

OK working on uploads and stuff. The engine has about 200 miles on it. The plug wires were too long a the last thing I checked, I didn't mock them. But that is how I knew the Edelbrock intake would need a trim of the coil tower for the distributor. Digging the proform. It starts great! and if you know Mopar, they aren't know for easy starting....

And the fuel cell is hidden by the tool box. It isn't ideal, but it works.
Learning to edit and upload. At least this is where I am at, I will put more pics in the appropriate places as I get around. But this is my project. Next up seats/safety, some more stainless lines and a front sway bar.

Welcome aboard George!
Good looking truck.
And I'm jealous of the snow part. The wife and I are down here in the valley.....where it's hot. :)
