Borgenson shaft will have to be ground to fit OEM style gerabox I think. Also Borgenson shaft is pretty expensive.

They said borgeson was a good company and made good products except for their steering shafts.

On another note. My slight misfire reared its ugly head at me today on its way home and turned into a random but violent misfire. When it does it its so bad it shakes the truck and i loose all power almost. SO i pulled into Autozone and pulled my dizzy cap and rotor to see alot of slag, so i thought BINGO. I put a new cap and rotorr on and it didnt help, it only got worse the further i drove it. Im really hoping that its not a cracked head. I will check the plug wires tomorrow.

Installed a voltage gauge in the 76.

Running the wire through the dash was a pain. I don't even have a "proper" ground.

Drove the wife to work, filled up the tank.

Waiting for the exhaust to cool so I can patch a leak, also need to check front tire air pressure.

just now getting around to a bigger draw straw?

I've had that all along...

Vulcan draw straw V in a modified liberty fuel module.



1/2" draw straw with 1/2" fuel line all the way to the injection pump.
