Sweet looking truck Dentman

Actually the Hydroboost was an easy hurdle I kept the Dodge pump, I took the Chevy line from the hydro boost then took the pump end from the dodge doner truck and had the hydro shop put them together, My plan for the return line is to come from the Hydroboost to the gearbox the T it back to the pump it's low pressure so I think it will be fine, I coverted the return over to AN fittings for eas of installation.

I was struggeling on the Hydralic master cylinder for weeks and on another forum I found a ford F350 Master cylinder will work with a push rod modification.

I am going to start a build thread this week and go through my build, I have learned a lot from other people and done a few things on my own to get this thing comming together

Thanks Again

this build is sweet, i also love that 496 you have !!! by the way.. that website is very helpful. i am always down to see new sites. so you kept your gm alternator without any issues ?

Thanks !

The 496 will go back into my 77 Chevy C10 Stepside, It's got a chris Alston 4 link in it.

I believe tha Alternator will be great I will run Dual battarys in it when I get assembled. I do plan on hooking up the intake heater but I figured I put that on a toggle switch.

Got any pics of the Procharged 505?

really clean truck! i would really like to see a build thread with all the little details of the engine swap!

cool build? looks like you've got a clean install going witch makes it that much more cool

and now my point of veiw
I would of left the 496 in it and worked on the gas milage and just been happy but thats me and sometimes it just cost money to be cool kid on the block

id love to have that 496 .

I built my 454 to a 460 witch isnt much but I was try'n to keep it on the ECM & TBI but if The problem with it is what I think it is I'm pulling out all the stops because I already have to have my ECM reworked to get it to run right so if I'm going to rebuild the engine I'm guna get after it

Thanks Guys, I'll work on the build thread tonight,

I dont have any engine picts but I do have picts of my procharger, The specs for the 505 are; 1978 GM Tall Deck truck block 10.2 high deck, Callies 4.250 Dragon Slayer crank, CompStar 6.800 Long H beam Connecting Rods, SRP 4.350 Pistons, Solid Roller Cam shaft custon ground for the procharger, O ringed block, Studded mains and Heads, Bill Mitchell 3.20cc Cast iron rect port heads 2.30 intake valve race ported. Dart Tall Deck Intake. The reason I built a big Bore Tall deck with a super long rod is to have a better rod to stroke ratio and I wanted a combination that would be able to not have as much piston side loading. The engine is not yet assembled and I plan on running a C&S blow through carb set up for Methenol so I dont have to plumb in an intercooler and be a little cheaper to operate at the race track. The engine should make well over 1000 HP with the boost turned down. It's going into a 1966 Nova that is in the process of being Back Halved.

I also have a 1977 C10 that I have had since High School, I drag raced it for years but It's reached its limitations and I would like to go Faster at the dragstrip that 12's

nice truck like the clean look welcome to the site
