I've not had a lot of driving time with the swap, but so far i'm liking it. Right now it is at the upholstery shop, due to be back in Feb.
1. I used Tanks Inc, tank and their in tank pump, easy install, only draw back is its noisy. There are a few threads here detailing a pump swap that is much quieter and I will probably be looking into that.
2. Its pretty much bone stock truck motor, for me it was easy keeping it as close to stock as possible. I did do the harness myself using Lt1swap web site. Motor was on the engine stand for nearly 6 years while I was doing body work, once ECM was flashed it started right up with no check engine lights. FYI a stock hood wont fit with the truck accessories/alt. intake. I had two hood and both were junk, reason for the cowl hood.
3.U joints and double d shaft came from Amazon
Thanks Mike, guess I'll have to look into the LS intake swap then. I'm in the budgeting stage right now and CPP seems to have an inclusive fuel system for cheaper than Tanks Inc and it includes the Plumbing hose/accessories.
The 64 is in the upholstery shop so had time to get a couple things painted. Inner fenders and bumpers, filled in the turn/park lights, and the next project.
Car looks good! You going to Springfield in May?
And whats the next project? I can't figure it out in the one pic. At first it looked like an early 30s Mopar, but the A pillar looks more GM....

Thanks. Not really sure about May, i need to put some miles on this thing that would be a good chance to. The next project is a 30 Chevy AD. Right now I have a running drive train out of a 39 Chevy coupe offered pretty cheap, so i may go with that.
Haven’t updated lately, but it’s mostly finished. Hood buffed and trim installed, inner fenders installed, wipers and washer bottle installed, intake cover fabbed up and painted. Needs one ac line crimped and installed and charged.
Did a local show this past weekend along route 66, just 160 vehicles but several nice rides and a couple accolades, got first in the 1960 to 74 custom class and best interior over all.
