Wow, awesome work on your truck man!  I'm working on a 76 620 with a friend who's dropping in a SBC, and I'm trying to convince him to run the radiator in the bed as well.  I made it through about 15 pages of your 'epoch' here, but would you mind summarizing your cooling system for me?  I saw the one radiator up front in the bed, I'm assuming it's vented only through the front bed panel, and then you have the dual puller fans on that one.  Then, I see a horizontally mounted setup of some sorts between the wheel wells, with what I'm guessing is a trans cooler on the passenger's side; what's going on for the driver's side? Is it another radiator, run in series with the front one??

 

Sorry if I'm repeating info on your posting, and thanks for the help/advice.  

 

 

**EDIT**

I think I found the answer.  Back on page 65 (said like "back in my day") you show some cooling system specific pictures.  The radiator is up front, and the A/C condensor+transmission cooler are mounted in the back.

One of the great tragedies of the Photobucket fiasco is the disappearance of this thread's pics, and those of Bob's MX520's pics.

 

I hope you will take this truck to JCCS. Heck, it should be a SEMA. I would drive to SoCal to come see this thing;)

Bory It is time consuming but you can down ;oad all your pictures from PB and then load the whole batch into PostImage and then replace all the broken links.

 

Or please just load up some pictures of the finished truck.

Hey C6!

It drives real nice, that's the good news, the bad news is that the last 19 months or so I was building it, I was actually building it for a new owner! I sold that thing on eBay, and started that crazy build for a 20 year old kid with a dad with deep pockets! It was a joy building it and by far the best wrk I have done, it ended up being about the money of a

New grand sport corvette with all options! They actually presented the kid the truck today! It's in Vegas.

They sent me a vid of the unveiling it pretty sweet!
