I've got the bed rug too. I've been wanting a hard bed cover like that. Any idea how much it weighs?

Put a few more things back on the engine. I should have the chassis back from the body shop soon. Looking forward to the downhill stretch of this project.

Hooked the Ty up a little..

Made my own AN fitting brake booster vacuum line with a 1/4" npt port for a boost gauge hose fitting..


And installed an engine tie down kit to help the stock motor mounts..


See ya,

Your brake booster hose looks nice, but depending on your motor mounts you may want to make it slightly longer. I had an RPM hose, and on my truck the motor would rock enough under acceleration to pull the hose and check valve tight and let vacuum escape from the brake booster.

Imagine chasing a Porsche up to about 80, and when he comes up on traffic and jumps on the brakes in front of you, you suddenly realize there is no vacuum assist. (I don't have to imagine it.) :)

Thanks for the consideration.. It's much longer than it looks in the pic... It has a good two inches of give to it and I just installed a engine tie down kit so that should make it even less likely to pull out...

I had the RPM one on my Sy for a couple years and never had it pull out with stock motor mounts.. That must have been a super pucker factor!! Did you have to change your shorts after that??

The Porsche definitely was too close for comfort. One of my goals in life is never to hit a car worth five times what mine is.

Your truck is beautiful - I've followed your build thread, and the work you and DaveP have done is amazing.
