Re: TB removal and then some!!!
Hello John....first startup went really well with the 74....but need to address the exhaust issue I am having with the exhaust manifold pipes not going in the configuration that I would like them to be under the car....around the trans......also need to work on the ZR-1 first as I need to put the 74 in that garage slot....so the 74 still is far from finished as the interior is completely out....and still need to change some items in the engine compartment as well...but getting there...thanks for asking....going to sneak in a pic....lol
Intended to do tripower....but then we stayed with the Q-Jet....which is fine...and sold my 68 tripower setup.....then a month later I buy a 67 tripower setup....it's just on my bucket list....so we shall see what happens next year....lol....[emoji16][emoji16] 20200902_130037.jpg Sent from my SM-G981U using ZR-1 Net Registry mobile app

Re: TB removal and then some!!!
Hello Nelson,
Just a smaller unit that I purchased from HF a few years ago. Large enough to do small parts and brackets. It does a decent job. Here is a pic of the unit and the media I prefer to use. The results are good, but it also depends on the time spent in the tumbler. You still need to soak and or wipe the media "dust" off the parts to get ready for paint....etc.....[emoji16][emoji16]JPEG_20200902_224629_2269899710058524322.jpg Sent from my SM-G981U using ZR-1 Net Registry mobile app

Hi Tom, You know that driving a big block car gives you a feeling that no other car can. Take your time and enjoy the process! |

Re: TB removal and then some!!!
Will do John, this is my first Big Bock C3.....in almost 12 years of ownership.. I've only driven the 74 for about 10 minutes....lol Anxious to experience that feeling and also anxious to drive the ZR-1 once again.....

Re: TB removal and then some!!!
Since I have items out of the engine compartment.....I would like to remove the thermostat housing and replace the thermostat and clean up the housing itself....but the one heater hose connection is giving me a problem....the other heater hose popped out with no problem....so any advice on how to remove this one is appreciated...and I sprayed some WD40 in there.....I also have 2 new quick connects for replacement...I just don't want to break anything in the process...
Thanks for any info... Pic #1...nice empty space... Pic #2...the one hose on the left...no problem....but that hose circled... Pic #3...two to choose from... Pic #4...bottom view...20200906_115355.jpg20200906_145349.jpg20200906_144133.jpg20200906_144141.jpg Sent from my SM-G981U using ZR-1 Net Registry mobile app
