That's exciting progress man. You're almost there. Post a short vid when you get the engine running so we can hear that lope...
1957 Nomad- LS1/T56 on C4 chassis
1959 Fleetside Apache 1/2 ton, shortbed, big window, 327ci.
Took an iPhone video today of the 56 running. i have it on my desktop, but don't know how to get it loaded on the site from there...
First off, that stance... wow, that looks excellent, well done......
You can upload the video to youtube, click share below the video and copy the link. Then post it on here using the film button to the right of the image posting button. Other services host videos as well like facebook/instagram, but I don't use their services, so I can't comment on the details of how to post the link from those services.
Thanks guys for the comments. I've posted the video on Youtube at https://youtu.be/Gyfrii8EADc, in case the attachment has issues.
That sounds really good Dick, not as choppy as I thought it would be for 525 HP but the idle was pretty high too. Sounds really healthy. I have found it's hard to get decent sound quality on some recordings, especially on a phone. What mufflers are you using?

He's running Magnaflow 4x9 but I'm not sure of the length... headers straight back to the H pipe, mufflers and then a short turn down...
PS. It's louder that I want for my car, but I'm sure Dick loves it... (He's not deaf yet)..
Thanks Laszlo - the Magnaflows are 14” body and 2.5” input/output. There’s not a lot of back pressure, it ‘crackles’ when the throttle is backed off quickly...
In the video, the fans are on also. I’d been checking out some of my manual switches and forgot to turn it off. And you’re right, the idle seams to be right about 1000 rpm when started cold. I haven’t driven the car yet, so not sure where it settles when warmed up.
