Got Pressure?

[Hard40]

Oil pressure that is. New oil pump did the trick. Nasty job but since I was working on the truck I thought of a few mods.

3.25 Steering
Better shocks
Longer Bumpstops
Cut fenders
Finish long overdue Body Lift
Finish long overdue exhaust
Install a 79-83 front bib& bezel. Love this look and had one on hand.
New Winch...well maybe.
Minor body work
Correct a wiring issue or two(minor)
Install Fuel Injection
Install a fuel can carrier
Wish again I had removed the soft top. Can't blame Alex or this
Maybe a power steering cooler

Some of this is complete but mostly in progress. Will complete by May.

Actually just worked on it two Saturdays so far but progress is good. Hurts the golf though.

I agree. I am going to go the fuel injection route with my 40 too.

 

[Capt. Jim]

Next time Sputnik40 and Mike M. come up, check their rigs out. Both fuel injected 2F's.

 

[cruiser4life]

Riding in your 40 pretty much sold me on the idea Jim.

If money hold out the winch will be something a little faster, prob a Warn 8-9000Or I could steal Andrews 8274 off his cruiser. I store it anyway and have not collected any fees. How is it that sons can have better winches than their pops? The fuel injection must be and is definitely in the budget. Just trying to determine who the vendor will be. I want a pretty much bolt on/weld on deal.

I'd like to do EFI someday too... budget is dry for now.

Can't wait to see it! Great list of mods.

Downey is too proud of their system. I'm sure its great but I'm looking at and talking to AFI in Michigan.
