Prime, I have thought much over your advise. I agree that making a good running truck into a pile of parts sure doesn't sound appealing. I believe I will save and buy my intake first. I will then save again and purchase my carburetor. I have decided on the Edelbrock intake and the Holley 4150...

Hey Gents. Hoping your Thanksgiving was great. Ours always is as mom goes all hog on Thanksgiving. I ate so much I nearly put myself in the hospital.Anyhow, my 352 is a royal 8ltch an a 1/2 to start in the morning. I don't know if it's just it's nature? Or, I am flooding it? To much choke...

I wanted to add that I also sprayed the inside of the compartment with the rubberized spray can of where the heater coil came to rest against metal areas. It worked out to a snug fit. I also padded the tubes that went through the firewall into the engine compartment. Some kind of grommets would...

Hey Ben, I personally would grade the replacement of the heater core in a 1967 f250, 4WD without A/C. Once I sat back and really took a look at the job it got easier as I thought about it and really got serious about getting it done. 1-10, with 10 being the toughest. For me, it was a 3...

Guys, there have been a lot of changes in my plans since this last election. I won't get into it as that's probably just another road to get me tossed out of here. As some may remember I have stated that I had plans for the military after graduation. I was sure as the heat in hell that Obama...

Ok guys, do I 'need' a 4-bbl intake to change from 2 to 4bbl? Or, can I use an adapter plate? Are those adapters just a joke? Or do they function as intended? ThanksDTM

Hey, I'm just a kid (I guess) My opinion never goes very far in my family any way. But I like what my Grand dad says. Whatever you are looking to buy is exactly worth what you are willing to pay for it. Not what the guy is asking for it. It's a ton of eye candy that I am years away from...

I got it guys! The old one was copper. The new, aluminum. All is good, no leaks. Hey, I kinda tore up the cardboard box glove box liner getting it out. But I fixed it nice! Looks awesome! I used gorilla tape to piece it back together. Then I sprayed it all over with the rubber stuff you like use...

Heater coilI took the box out of the glove compartment today. That was terrible in it's self. Someone had glued it in and I had to tear it to pieces to get it out. That severely bummed me out! I hate to say but no, it was not 'right there' all I saw was the top of the blower housing. The coil...

Looking for an intake for my 1967, 352. Stock manifold or an aftermarket aluminum would be even better (shipping) Also will be looking for the 4bbl carburetor to go on it. Thanks for any consideration.DTM

Thanks Gentlemen,Hey Roy, I still have the 'bag' that holds the windshield washer fluid. Kinda cool huh? And it doesn't leak! Yea, that's a good plan. I think I'll just drain all coolant and replace with new. About a half & half mixture, correct?Also, my tires have like 80 pounds in them...

I thank ya Ben. I'll get after it this weekend.

Guys, I assume this is my heater core? When I started it this morning (I do this sometimes before I catch the bus for school) When it warmed up, steam covered the windshield. I would like to know how would you rate this job. Is it a difficult repair? Do you suppose it's something I can handle...

Intake & CarbsI did find a nice set of headers. DNFXDLI, the 600-650 you speak of...Would a Holley be the answer? Not like a 'double pumper' correct? Could you be a bit more specific? 600 OR 650. On a 'vacuum secondary' does the secondary's require adjustment, like when they begin to open? Or...

Intake & CarbI would like to ask this again. Do you folks recommend an intake and a four barrel carburetor for my stock 352? Thank youDylan

Hey guys, nothing new to report on Brutus the big white horse. Since school started I'm not making much money. With fall coming there will be leaves, cleanup and such. Hopefully I can get in on some of that.I did find a pair of headers for my 352. They are a good brand with thick flanges and...

A few months ago I lost my temper inside a 'conversation' posting. I posted within a post that was very abrasive to me and I had no business even entering the post. I offer no viable excuses for my actions. I just stepped out of line and I am offering my humble apology. If you give me a break...

It was nothing guys. Some censer that controlled the fan. Cost her a couple hundred dollars. It is in top shape. We went to the coast in in last month. Didn't hiccup once. Treated it us like a Ford should have.

Thanks guys!Oh yea, it came off a potato farm. It was not as clean and shiny as it appears in the pic. Ridge runner, that photo is near four hours of work getting down to that shine. The inside just needed a good vacuum and some Maguires leather cleaner/conditioner. (love this stuff, smells...

Yea, I know guys. It's not a truck. But Moms excitement just rubbed off on me. I got to share this amazing story. She was driving her old sick Pontiac with over 300,000 miles on it. When she was getting ready to leave (she does maid service) she asked them about their Lincoln they had sitting...

Ah! The 'unwind' thing. I got it! That's great news that this is normal. Is this "4 wheel drive walk" like an old school thing? Or does it happen in a brand new 4WD under the same turning conditions?

Acting up in 4WD?Hey guys. Hows it going? I have been told that I should "exercise" the 4WD in my truck once in a while. Been told it keeps things lubricated. Been told them hubs can be tough to get in and out if I don't use them once in a while.This all makes sense to me and I do it. I...

I meant in this message (#90). That I DID have to choke it a little. Even in warm weather! After adjusting the air/fuel. I don't touch the choke. Neither the gas pedal, unless it has sat for a few days. What a difference! I can;t get over what a difference the turn of a couple screws has made.

Yes, this looks like up around a creek Granddad and I go to up north to fish for rainbow trout. I have never taken my truck up there, but I will. You defiantly need 4WD capabilities to get you there. I guess the greatest feeling I personally would have? Would be sitting in the driveway patting...

Points and gaps and suchYea, I know. I'm awful bothersome today. I know you guys are at work this time of day. I don't mean to be a lot of trouble, really I don't. I just get hung up on something and can't seem to leave it alone until I get it resolved. Catfish?Look guys, I need to...

I opened up the air'fuel screws as advised. I don't even have to touch the gas to start it anymore. I did have to actually choke it a little. I was trying to imaging how hard it would be to start in cold weather. But it's going to be fine. Here is a picture of my new breather. Mom said it was...

Timing and suchHey Roy, thanks for the info. It should run gobs better when I get these turned out. Just out of curiosity earlier today when I put on my new breather. I took a screwdriver and turned them in (lightly) to see how far they were out. I knwe what they were but no idea whjat to do...

Carburetor AdjustmentsHey guys. My 352 has an Autolite 2 barrel carburetor on it. It looks new. I had to get a new shiny chrome air cleaner for it. The one that was on it I noticed was not fitting well. Not well at all. It was sucking raw air through about a 1/8" gap. it's not any more. I do...

The DashHey Smokey, that sounds great! I never messed with fiberglass but I'm sure I can figure it out. Thank you!

Thanks guys for all the info and fine comments. I figure I'll probably be at a stand still for a while. Got to get a couple Benjamins stacked up.
